Pre-travel Consultation

Travelling has always been joyful to most people, nevertheless, we cannot underestimate the potential health risks we are posed to especially visiting developing countries. Our doctors will discuss with you about the potential hazards of the trip and their precautions, e.g. mountain sickness, motion sickness, sunburn, and heat- or cold-related illnesses.
