Travel Clinics of America - NY

Most New Yorkers think of travel as booking flights or packing bags, but the logistics of staying healthy abroad rarely cross their minds until the last minute. Travel Clinics of America - NY fills that gap on Spring Street, offering the kind of preventive care that doesn’t make it into most itineraries. The clinic sits at 155 Spring St, New York, NY 10012, a stretch of SoHo where boutiques and cafés usually get all the attention.

They handle everything from yellow fever vaccines to malaria prophylaxis, plus the paperwork that often slips through the cracks—like international certificates of vaccination. Typhoid, hepatitis A, and Japanese encephalitis shots are also on the menu, along with travel-specific advice that general practitioners might overlook. If you’re heading somewhere with questionable water or unfamiliar cuisine, a quick call to (212) 343-0080 can save more than just your vacation.

The neighborhood’s transient energy makes it an oddly fitting home for a clinic that caters to globetrotters. For directions, the map is here. No one plans on getting sick, but if you’re leaving the country, it’s one of those things you don’t want to leave to chance.
