When traveling to higher altitudes, there are possible medical conditions to be aware of, such as Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE) or swelling of the brain, and High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE) or fluid back-up in the lungs. In most cases, these conditions can be avoided by ascending slowly and allowing your body to adjust as you go. In addition, altitude sickness prescriptions are available to help your body acclimate to high altitudes. Your travel medicine clinician can help determine which medications are right for you, if you plan any high-altitude activities.
We offer same-day and next-day appointments and allow you to book your appointments online.
Any traveler can experience signs and symptoms of altitude sickness if they go above 8,000 ft (2,500 m). Some can even experience altitude sickness at lower altitudes. A traveler's prior response to high altitude does not guarantee they will have the same response on future trips. With this in mind, it's important to acknowledge the life-threatening effects AMS, HACE, and HAPE can have.
The travel medicine experts at e7 Health want to assist in reducing your risk of altitude sickness and the potential subsequent effects. An altitude sickness prescription, along with the counseling provided by e7 Health's travel medicine clinicians, can help aid in acclimatization, reducing and possibly preventing these effects.
At e7 Health, your clinician can help determine which altitude sicknness prescription is best for you based on your medical history and provide you the necessary counseling based on your travel itinerary.
If you will be traveling internationally, you should see a travel medicine doctor or clinician at least 4 to 6 weeks prior to your departure. He/she can prescribe medications and recommend any vaccines that may be indicated for your trip.
You should take your altitude sickness prescription as directed by the prescribing provider.
Altitude sickness is an illness due to sudden ascent to high altitudes, generally above 8000 feet.

I recently visited this clinic for the services and shots required for my immigration case, and I must say, the experience was exceptional. From the moment I checked in to the time I left, everyone I interacted with was incredibly nice, courteous, and professional. The staff was well-informed and had all the necessary information readily available to assist me. They were patient, thorough, and made sure I understood everything I needed to know. This was such a positive experience compared to other clinics I've visited. If other healthcare providers were even half as friendly and knowledgeable as the team here, I would definitely be more inclined to visit them more often. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone in need of medical services, especially for immigration-related requirements. Thank you for making the process so smooth and stress-free!
