Recent Patient Comments

  Several months ago I flew to Haiti to help in the relief effort. The Travel Clinic of New York administered a cholera vaccination because the water there is so polluted. I was treated very well, with discretion-and the price was right. I would recommend this clinic to everyone in need of a cholera vaccination.
