Set Sail On Your Adventures, Safely
Keeping your health on track, while you trek around the globe
We’re proud to announce a new service at Forward Pharmacy — our Safe Travels Clinic! Safe Travels is our new travel clinic focused on providing you with what you need to travel safely from pre-travel counseling to immunizations and assistance obtaining prescriptions for medications.
Our pre-travel counseling includes destination-specific information regarding potential health risks, personal safety information and more, helping you ensure you’re in tip-top shape for your travels. Additionally, the clinic will provide the immunizations and medications you need to keep you healthy while traveling abroad.
These services are possible thanks to Forward Pharmacy Travel Consultant Kim Shumaker, PharmD. Kim has devoted much of the last 10 years providing consultations for people traveling outside the U.S., offering recommendations and providing vaccinations for preventable travel-related illness. As people have started to take interest in international travel again, she’s excited to share her knowledge with you all!
Kim is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin School of Pharmacy and has been practicing as a pharmacist in Dane County for 25 years. She has devoted much of the last 10 years providing consultations for people traveling outside the United States, and joined the Forward Pharmacy team in late 2021.
