Coronavirus/ COVID-19
To Our Clients and All of Colorado:
We are actively monitoring the rapidly evolving situation related to COVID-19 and the impact it is having on travel around the world.
Passport Health Colorado is doing our part to curb the spread of the virus through social distancing. While we remain open to provide preventive care for many other infectious diseases, it is in a restricted fashion. To preserve the limited resources of our health care system and to keep our patients and our team as safe as possible during this health emergency, we are using current guidelines to take the following measures:
Clients are being screened for symptoms of respiratory infection (eg cough, sore throat, fever, or shortness of breath) as well as for exposure to confirmed or suspected cases of COVID-19 before coming into the office. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms you may be asked to reschedule your appointment.
When possible, clients are requested to arrive alone.
We have launched Telehealth visits to provide patient care for eligible patients with both routine and urgent concerns. We will discuss your planned travel and all required and recommended vaccines, medications and safety precautions. You will then be scheduled to come to one of our offices at a later date to receive your vaccinations and anything else you may need. This service is available for both new and established clients. Telehealth visits will be billed as an office visit.
For those clients that do come to one of our offices, we will have time in between all appointments to minimize contact between clients and allow our staff to properly clean any areas contacted by the previous client(s). Clients will be asked to wash their hands before and after their visit and also wear gloves.
Thank you for your help in curbing the spread of Covid-19 and for your patience with as we work to continue to provide the best travel medical care during these difficult times.

Customer Reviews
“Everyone was prompt and helpful and very friendly to work with. Joan was very good at educating me on all of the options and recommendations.”
“The clinicians always provide a thorough explanation of the health risks in the areas where you are traveling, assist with selecting the needed vaccines and medicines, and review the information booklet on how to travel safely.”
“We were seen on time and quickly, the nurse was very kind and informative, with a detailed booklet of information for our travel destination. The appointment was quick and easy and I will be going back for any travel health needs!”
“I like that it’s easy to schedule my monthly injection, and the location is convenient. Also, the nurse is friendly and quick!”
“My visit to Passport Health was very helpful. I found the RN and front desk person to be knowledgeable and very responsive to all my questions.”
“I am travelling to South America and then to Central America. I had lots of trepidation on taking the Yellow Fever immunization. However, both nurses at this location were very patient with me and gave me the necessary time and information to make an informed decision. I also had a letter from my cardiologist since I had open heart surgery 6 months ago. Ultimately, I decided the shot was necessary and took it in faith that the Lord will protect me ultimately. Thank you!”
“Was very impressed by the amount and depth of information they presented for southeast Asia and Africa. Was well worth the consultation fee and the one stop shop for vaccinations.”
