When Fran Lessans started Passport Health in 1994, she saw that there was a need among international travelers for information related to travel health and vaccines. Before long, that need was recognized on a national level and the company began to grow by leaps and bounds. In 2001, under the medical direction of Dr. Sidney Robin, MD, our franchise was founded in Austin, Texas, and we’ve been growing ever since. There are now six locations in Austin! Our offices range from Cedar Park and Round Rock, as well as Bee Caves, South Austin, Northwest Austin, and Central Austin. We also have three offices in San Antonio!
As quickly as we’ve grown, we know that our attention to detail and customer care are the reasons that we’ve been successful, and we remain committed to our small-business values. We believe in individual care and whether you’re an international business traveler needing a Japanese encephalitis vaccine, yellow fever certification and a whole menu of other services, or an expectant parent getting caught up on your Pertussis shot, we will be sure to treat you like a person, not a number, with treatment meant especially for you. Give us a call today and set up an appointment with one of our Austin-area travel health specialists:
