The Pre-Travel Consult

1-Hour Video Visit | $300

Book 4-6 weeks before departure (CDC recommended timeline)

You'll leave our video consultation with:

  • Your personalized health plan: Comprehensive, destination-specific guidance to stay healthy while traveling

  • Prescriptions sent to your pharmacy: All medications you need - chronic medication refills for your trip duration, destination-specific protection (like malaria prophylaxis), and "just in case" medications

  • Your vaccine roadmap: The exact vaccines you need (and which ones you can skip), plus guidance on where to get them - including help finding locations with harder-to-find vaccines like Yellow Fever in stock

  • Insurance documentation: Superbill provided for potential reimbursement

Quick Travel Health Consult

Asynchronous Messaging | $175

Perfect for straightforward travel health needs when you don't need a full consultation.

Ideal for situations like:

  • Single medication request: "I need an antibiotic for traveler's diarrhea" or "Can you prescribe malaria prophylaxis?"

  • Refill a prescription: You've used a travel medication before and need it again

  • Simple destination-specific health question: "Do I need typhoid vaccine for Costa Rica?" or "Is tap water safe in Portugal?"

  • Quick clarification: Brief follow-up questions about your upcoming trip

  • While abroad: "I have diarrhea — should I start my antibiotic?" or "I ran out of my malaria medication mid-trip" or "A clinic abroad prescribed me something and I have questions about it"

How it works:

  • Message me your travel details and specific question

  • I'll review and respond within 24 business hours

  • Back-and-forth messaging until your question is answered

  • Prescriptions sent directly to your pharmacy

  • Typically resolved in 1-3 message exchanges

Not appropriate for:

  • First-time international travelers needing comprehensive planning

  • Complex medical histories or multiple chronic conditions

  • Multi-country itineraries requiring detailed consultation

  • Comprehensive vaccine planning

For these situations, book the Pre-Travel Consult above.

Everything in The Pre-Travel Consult, PLUS:

Pricing varies by trip length. Start by booking a Pre-Travel Consult where we will discuss your specific travel plans and on-call coverage needs.

Why Trust Me With Your Health Abroad?

I’m not a travel medicine doctor who learned about the world from textbooks – I’ve lived it.

I’ve diagnosed malaria in Ugandan villages, taught HIV and TB to physicians-in-training in Tanzania, and personally navigated the health systems in 38 countries across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. I know what it’s like to be sick far from home, to navigate a pharmacy where you don’t speak the language, and to decide at 2am whether something warrants finding more urgent care.

My background:

  • 18+ months living and working in East Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer and medical educator

  • Diploma in Tropical Medicine & Hygiene from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (studied in Tanzania and Uganda)

  • Board-certified Family Medicine physician with expertise in global health systems

  • Master’s in Public Health from George Washington University, where I later taught Comparative Global Health Systems

  • Trained physicians in the US, Kenya, and Uganda on managing neglected tropical diseases and non-communicable conditions

I’ve dealt with travelers’ diarrhea more times than I can count and learned which medications you can reliably find in a Nairobi pharmacy. That real-world experience means I can give you practical, tested advice – not just guidelines from a manual.

Dr. Bias in the stairwell of Mulago National referral hospital in Uganda.

“We were taking our bucket list family safari to Masai Mara, Kenya and didn’t want any unexpected medical encounters to get in the way of the majesty for this once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Because of Dr. Bias’ experience and consultation, we could focus on the big 5 instead of obsessing over potential risks we might encounter in the bush. We took his advice with malaria, typhoid, and yellow fever vaccine and came back safe and sound!”
