Comprehensive Health Exams for Work or Travel

A comprehensive medical evaluation also referred to as annual physical, serves as a deep dive into your current health. It offers an opportunity to reveal potential ailments and provide a pathway to optimal well-being. This preventative approach is an ideal method to prevent potential health complications. Often times students are required to submit proof of an annual comprehensive examination for work or International Travel.  

Travel Exams

If you are planning to travel internationally, we can assist you with travel information, education, counseling and vaccinations. We recommend that you schedule your travel visit at least a month before departure. This lead time is necessary in the event that specialty vaccines are required.

Call 781-736-3677 to set up an appointment with a provider (ideally at least four weeks before traveling).

Services can also be obtained through off-campus providers.

Most insurers do not cover preventive travel medicines and immunizations. Before scheduling your visit with the Health Center or an off-campus provider, check with your health insurance plan about coverage and costs.
