Doctor Accompaniment
From pre-travel consultation including preventative health care, vaccines and potential health risks through direct patient care in the field; our doctors add comprehensive health care coverage to any group of travelers, in any destination, performing any activity. Our physicians travel with the latest medical equipment and medications, allowing them to diagnose and treat medical conditions in the field.
The security of having your private travel/expedition doctor with you on your travels adds increased confidence, peace of mind and relaxation to your travels. Our services are provided with discretion in mind and while our physicians are always near-by, they are not intruding on your activities.
