After seeing the owners public online behavior and the kind of rhetoric she openly supports, I personally could not feel comfortable giving this company my money. For a business centered around international travel health and traveler safety, it felt completely at odds with the image they present professionally. It's honestly disturbing to see someone who profits from promoting health and traveler safety publicly behave in ways that seem completely disconnected from compassion, humanity, and genuine concern for people's wellbeing. People should also know there are often much cheaper options that don't involve paying a large markup for a middleman consultation. Many travelers can get the same vaccines and prescriptions through: * county health departments * CVS or Walgreens travel clinics * Costco pharmacy * university travel clinics * their primary care doctor For specialized vaccines like yellow fever, you can search the CDC's official clinic finder directly instead of automatically paying premium pricing through a chain clinic. Do your research before spending hundreds more than necessary. People's safety abroad should come from compassion and ethics, not inflated markups and corporate numbers. Unfortunately, everything about this company feels driven by profit first. read more

DONT USE THEM!!!! They didnt disclose the cost of the vaccine prior to the appointment and then when my son (18) couldnt pay the 536.00 for one vaccine they charged him a 75.00 cancellation fee!! They are fradulent!! Save yourself the frustration! read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! We were given such inconsistent information between calling them multiple times & then the actual visit & calling again for clarification - no one gave instructions that were right or consistent. They charge you $450 then treat you incredibly rude & are incompetent to boot. STAY AWAY!!!! read more

Passport health: Their vaccines are really expensive , and they And they communicate by email, they won't call you. I wish they called you because sometimes the can be missing. I have to say the Nurse Ms. Tracie does her job right and I don't have any complaints about her I wish there was a direct way to communicate with their office because they have a call center and I had urgent paperwork to submit and it caused delays. The cost overall for Inmigration test is very expensive or I guess they have standard prices, for that test, in other places as well, I wouldn't go back there though. read more

I've used the Passport Health Office on Whetstone Way in Baltimore. I've gone twice so far and each visit was handled so promptly and professionally. No reactions and excellent follow up. On top of that, I live in Fells Point so I took the opportunity to use the Connector to have a few minutes on the water each way for free. They have a great location if you want to grab a bite to eat or go grocery shopping. read more

I would never, ever recommend using Passport Health, because they are way too expensive and they are actually quite gimmicky. My family of four paid nearly $1800 for two shots for each. I'm sure there's a way that you can talk to your primary care doctor, and find out where they would recommend you get travel vaccinations. There has to be another way. I could've used the money for souvenirs and other travel experiences, but instead, before I even left home, I was nearly $2000 in the hole. I think the only good thing that we ended up getting from the experience was the website to register with the US state department, and the US Embassy at our destination country, which i could've googled. We purchased a travel kit for illnesses, like foodborne or insect born illnesses. Other than that, it's a complete waste of money and time. Just don't do it. read more

If you need to do your immigration paperwork that's not the place. I went there and took a vaccine that's crazy of expensive and few weeks later a receive one email saying that I need to get the booster. So I called them just to make sure and a really rude lady told me that they would hold on my paperwork until I get the second dose. So I did and when I stopped buy to drop off my paperwork they already sent it and I didn't need the second dose. To be honest that lady shouldn't be working there besides being rude doesn't know how to give the right information. read more

I wish I had investigated other options than Pass Port Health. Did not live up to my expectations of professionalism. Lack of follow through, no attention to detail. They charge you a pretty penny and there are far better options more cost effective. I probably would not have mind the money if I had received the service. Learn from me and investigate other options. Quick Care Clinic USA LLC Is one I located much more personable and professional works with insurance less costly. read more

A great experience was had during my visit. This was my first time using Passport Health. I went into my appt expecting a review of my immunization record along with receiving my immunization. I left more educated, prepared, and excited about my upcoming trip. The RN was patient and answered all my concerns. His responses to my questions were clear and concise. This was an enjoyable experience. Super easy to book online. read more

There is nothing that can explain my frustration with these nurses or even the entire team at this office. I visited their office on 10/30 for myself and my 2 children (4 and 2 years old).  First, the nurse had to reschedule our appointment because the one that was scheduled to assist us "called out" her exact words. We still went in and we never started at the designated time. Second, the price for the office visit is $75 per person and the yellow vaccins shot is $399 per person not covered by insurance..not the office fault. MY EXPERIENCE:  The nurse prescribed what she felt would be good for us to use during our trip. The original bill came to $2200 out of pocket not covered by insurance. If you refuse to go with her recommendations you have to sign a waiver. I just stick to the yellow fever vaccin and a prescription for Atovaquine for the children. Instead of sending the children medecine(pediatric dosage 62.5-25mg),the nurse sent over to the pharmacy the adult dosage(250-100mg). I was able to take my prescription from the pharmacy 4 days after the visit but not the kids because the pharmacist refused to release their prescription. You guess,  wrong dosage. They told me that they have called and faxed documents to the passport heath office and never got an answer back. I followed up with the office back around 11/15 the representative said she will leave notes and contact the nurse.a week later i spent 30 min on the phone with the pharmacy only to be told that they havent received any updates from the doctor office. I called them again the representative stated that they have see  the notes but since the nurse doesnt work weekends she may have not yet worked on it.mind you we are talking about traveling and that time keeps on marching on..not stopping for them to do their job.. ok fast forward, the rep assured me that the matter will have been resolved within a day or 2.. guess what, i went in person to the pharmacy on 12/6 to inquire and or pick the meds, the pharmacist confirmed in person that the passport health office team did not update the prescription..whatttt??? She even gave me a screen shot of the records. Right there I called the office wanting to talk to the office manager, the rep tried to help but i still asked to talk to the manager. I was transfered to Mrs Tracy the head nurse and she said that "my case fell through the crack" her exact words.. you will think that people care NO they dont..she did apologize and promise to take care of it as soon as she get to the office because she was driving. I asked her to give me a confirmation call or email to let me know when it is done. She did call me back about 45 min later stating that she has asked her other nurse to do it and she did. I clearly asked her if she made sure that the nurse updated BOTH my children records, she said YES she did. Guess what, today is friday 12/10, i called the pharmacy to see if the prescription were  ready well 1 child is still awaiting the correct dosage, that means the nurse took care of only 1 child and not the other.. I called the office and was directed to their voicemail twice. I am very disappointed.  I shouldnt have to do all that.you pay 75 dollars per person so you can do all the follow up,why??  I just want the nurse to do their job because obviously they dont care about you or your trip. From 10/30 to 12/10?? And the matter is not yet resolved. Woow.. I am also requesting my 2 children office visit fees refunded to me. CONCLUSUON: My advice to You guys, if you really want to go there make sure that the right dosages are sent to the pharmacies..take a good contact number..and be financially ready. As off for me, im still waiting for 1 of them to call me back. Or ill call them back later. One thing for sure i will never go back to that particular office again.they dont even deserve 1 star rate. read more

I visited Passport Health yesterday for an appointment with my husband. The nurse was extremely rude and just outright unprofessional. She she should not be in any kind of position with authority dealing with minorities and immigrants. Majority of the time, these people are vulnerable and going through situations that one born in the US cannot even fathom! Even after she came to grab us late after our appointment time, she was very unwilling. She even took it upon herself to charge my card the $75 cancellation fee. When I asked her to show me that policy she responded back "mm mm can't, already done." She was upset because she was trying to tell us we needed 3 more vaccinations and blood work yet we had all our records that she didn't even bother to look at. The three came up to $561 on top of $390 (just for them to do the paperwork even though I printed it out and pre-filled it out). I told her I know for sure I can get the flu shot for free and I'll just go get the other two somewhere else. She rolls her eyes and say "well it's still gonna be $125 for our extra work ok too if the $390 and I'm charging you the $75 today for the information I just told you." The way she treated us was DISGUSTING!!!! The company needs to be made aware and I won't stop until they are. read more

We used Passport Health this morning. We are very pleased with the service received. I had checked the CDC website ahead of time and knew exactly what was recommended. The nurse did not try to 'upsell' us; I felt her advice was all appropriate. They prepared a detailed booklet of health and travel advice specifically for us on the country we will be visiting. The cost was comparable to the estimate I had gotten when looking for travel immunizations for my son- which also would not have been covered by insurance. We got a discount on the office visit charge with two spouses going together. No insurance plans accepted, use all major credit cards. Parking on the side in a lot shared by other businesses in this area of remodeled industrial buildings. The general area has 'gentrified' and looks clean and safe. read more

Had a great meeting with Lauren Dwyer, RN. She explained everything well. I did not feel pressured or rushed. I felt comfortable with the service and her knowledge level. Do prior research and know what you need ahead of time, so you will not make uninformed and pricey immunization decisions. This is not a cheap service, and you can leave ~$250 - $1k lighter in the wallet. You will leave happy if you come in prepared but with an open mind. The high prices and the insurance hassle of filing after the fact claims is why I give 4 out of 5 stars. read more

Do not go to any of these!!!!! Complete rip off!!!! They tried to charge me 2000.00 for shots I didn't even need and I brought a shot record in showing that I had them!!! And even if you turn them down, they charge you an office fee! There was an elderly woman before us that they scared to death !to make her get things she didn't need! Go anywhere but here!! They tried to sell us kits and trip insurance and flight pillows, just a huge scam!! And even though I had just told them I needed two shots and had a shot record, they tried to sell me 2000.00 dollars worth of shots including shots that my doctor at Johns Hopkins told me three days before I didn't need!! DO NOT GO TO ANY OF THESE BUSINESSES!!! And even when I told them I had been to some of these countries already and had everything already checked they tried to make me get boosters and used scare tactics!!! Go to your doctor first before going near these places and be armed with your information before going in! I'm telling you, the lady in front of us got scared into 3000.00 of Bull!! And boy are the nice about it!!! read more

Great service!! Happy withe the experience they have with travelers. Easy going staff. They explained requirements to me in a very knowledgeable way. It was also nice that they had copies of immigration and other important forms that are often used. PS. Great photo collection on that wall. read more

If you are traveling to a foreign land better get your immunizations. These nice folks will help. Be careful of the up-sells and do some research before you go, but you absolutely want to make sure you are immunized and taking prophylactic medication for endemic diseases in the area you are traveling. Know that your insurance probably will not cover any of this, but you don't wan't to get Malaria just to stick them with the bill later :-). read more

Passport Health Baltimore Travel Clinic - Medical Centers Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

See all

Avoid it like the plague. They continually try to scare you into buying more and more vaccinations. If you go in with a list of the vaccines that your doctor says you need then stick with that - your doctor has your best interests at heart but Passport Health serves their own bottom line. They wanted us to pay thousands of dollars for vaccines that we didn't need. Unless you need yellow fever you can probably buy the rest of the immunizations through your pharmacy or minute clinic for a lot less than Passport Health charges. They even forced me to participate in a research study in order to get medical care. If you have problems like I did make sure you report them to the state Attorney General. read more

Good location, easy to find and get to. They had the yellow fever vaccine in stock when, it appears, there is a shortage nationwide....that was a huge plus. They did make an attempt to upsell, but I politely but firmly demurred. Paid $ 65 for a consultation but the person didn't do much consulting - had to find out on my own that the vaccine took 10 days to take effect. read more

Don't waste your money on this place. $75 to walk in the door they wanted $1600 for a bunch of vaccinations.. when I checked the CDC recommendations they did not recommend this for where I am traveling. I tried to narrow it down to three vaccines I still wanted $500 for this. I called the public health department in my county they told me I can go to CVS or Walmart and get them much cheaper. I went to Walmart and got two of them for nothing my insurance paid for it. Passport Health didn't even mention to check my insurance in fact they said the insurance would not pay for them... that was wrong. I Guess if you don't have insurance..maybe but I bet Walmart and CVS at Target will have it much cheaper. The health department told me CVS at Target in my hometown will have the other vaccines I need for very little cost. Do you research on this don't play that crazy price it's a rip off. read more

Unfortunately forgot to get the typhoid vaccine from my local health department before moving to Baltimore for the summer. The Baltimore health dept. doesn't administer the vaccine, and they directed me to here. I simply wanted the vaccine, but they said it was their policy to have a $65 consultation. Pressed for time, I went along with it. When I arrived the lady who saw me told me that I needed the yellow fever vaccine. I told her I already received a consultation from a physician from home who told me the yellow fever vaccine was not necessary for the areas I was traveling. She then pulled up some general CDC web page and told me it was required, that I could have difficulty traveling and could be stopped without it. Knowing this was a scam and she simply wanted me to pay for an unnecessary vaccine, I refused. I later double checked the CDC website and it actually states that while the countries I was visiting had a risk for yellow fever in some areas, the vaccine was "not recommended" for all the cities I was traveling to. Therefore, I would do research before arriving at the clinic, as they will likely try to rope you into paying for unnecessary vaccines. read more

Terrible. They only keep your records for 6 years. They try to scare you and there is a lot of upselling. Just go somewhere else.

I got my immigration physical exam done here. The instructions I got on the phone prior to the exam regarding what to bring were accurate and clear. The needed blood work was done right then and there together with the physical. The needed forms will be ready next week for pick up. All staff very friendly and helpful. Despite the waiting time being a little long for me today, I am happy. Five stars. read more

"I have long had a fear of needles so when I discovered that I would need 3-4 shots to travel to Africa this Christmas, I was not happy! Tracie at the Baltimore. Fort Ave. location convinced me that it would be fine; I trusted her. It was great- I didn\'t feel a thing in either arm and her attitude is lovely. Thank you Tracie!" read more

Do not scheduled an early appointment at this location. The employees show up exactly when the office opens or later, and twice now that I've came for appointments scheduled weeks in advance, I've had to wait 20-30 minutes to be seen for the very first appointment for the day. Consistently unprofessional and disappointing. read more

We used them Christmas Eve, and at the last minute. This is a sudden trip. I researched what was required and recommended prior, but we ended up spending much more than planned. The staff was friendly and professional. Ted was awesome. He tried to up-sell the shots, but we only ended up buying six extra shots after he delivered a lengthy and informative consultation. We all needed a Tetanus booster, and I bet most also do. The shots only hurt a little, but he was so skilled at giving shots that our son took all three without crying or flinching; the last time he was given shots, he was restrained by four large male nurses. I was so pleased that they had nets that I didn't even care about the price, which were 50% higher than calculated. We wholeheartedly support "Nothing But Nets" and are willing to pay more so that the truly poor can buy them for less. I felt he tried to discourage us from buying the water bottles in favor of buying a larger water filter at REI, but our health is our primary concern so we bought both. We are not looking forward to paying for the prescriptions, but since they cost less than the disease they prevent, we will. They performed well above our unreasonably high expectations. read more
