WellPower's Travel Clinic is conveniently located at our Wellshire Pharmacy in southeast Denver (4141 E. Dickenson Pl.).
Why Should I Visit a Travel Clinic Before My Trip?
Some travel, especially to international destinations, can expose you to health risks that you wouldn't normally encounter here in Denver. Many countries also require visitors to have proof of specific vaccinations before they can enter.
WellPower's Travel Clinic can help you stay healthy during your trip and:
- Avoid unwanted delays in an international airport due to missing vaccinations
- Minimize preventable illnesses like traveler's diarrhea, respiratory infections, malaria, altitude sickness and more
- Make sure you have enough of your regular prescription medications throughout your travel.
Whether you're going abroad to a place with different vaccination requirements or simply taking an extended visit away from Colorado, we can make sure you're prepared with consultation, education and medication as needed.
- Cost-Effective: WellPower’s Travel Clinic costs less than comparable clinics in the Denver area. And because we are pharmacy-based, vaccines and other medications may be covered by prescription insurance benefits to decrease your overall cost of travel.
- Availability: Many Denver area travel services are fully booked and unable to accommodate new travel consultations. Because our Travel Clinic is based in our pharmacy, we have flexible availability for appointments throughout the day.
How to Book Your Appointment
- We recommend making your appointment 4-6 weeks ahead of your trip, though we may be able to accommodate last-minute travel plans based on availability.
- Schedule your appointment by calling (303) 504-6699 or emailing pharmacy@wellpower.org.
- Travel consultations last about 60 minutes. Our hours of availability are Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., with Tuesday consultations starting at 10:00 a.m.
How Much Does a Travel Consultation Cost?
Travel consultations cost $100 per traveler and include:
- An itinerary-specific comprehensive evaluation of medication requirements and practices for optimal wellness during and after your travel.
- A plan for making sure you have enough of your prescriptions to last through your trip.
- Tips for avoiding location-specific health concerns, from diarrhea to altitude sickness and more.
- Ability to fill many routine and recommended prescriptions right after your appointment (additional cost for prescriptions - see below).
- A special discounted price for international medical and evacuation insurance policies for around $5 per day.
Please note: The costs of medications and vaccines are in addition to the consultation fee; however, because our travel clinic is part of our Wellshire Pharmacy, any costs of prescriptions may be covered by your insurance. This means that the total cost of your appointment might be no more than the $100 appointment fee plus the copays for prescriptions.
Questions about insurance? We're happy to help you understand your coverage and what your total cost will be before booking an appointment. Give us a call at (303) 504-6699 to find out more.
Can I Just Pick Up Prescriptions Without a Full Consultation?
Absolutely. WellPower's pharmacy fills a wide range of prescriptions, including many of the most popular medications for traveling. (Please note that we cannot write new prescriptions without a consultation.) Give us a call to have your prescriptions filled: (303) 504-6699.
