Choose a licensed travel doctor who’s been there — we’re travellers too!

Our travel Medicine Doctor teaches by example, having travelled to over 70 countries himself.

You will have a one-on-one consultation with our experienced travel doctor. We are updated daily on the latest international travel alerts. At many other travel clinics, a Medical Doctor will not personally see you, nor will you be advised by a seasoned traveller.

Experience matters.

At the Downtown Travel Medicine Clinic we’ve seen over 30,000 travelling patients since 1997. As the first travel medicine clinic in downtown Ottawa, our goal has always been to help you travel safely at the lowest cost. After working in travel medicine for over 40 years, our doctor is extremely knowledgeable and can often offer unique advice based on your travel plans.

We don’t overcharge or oversell.

We’re a top choice for seasoned travellers due to our reasonable prices and a reputation for recommending necessary vaccines only. All travel medicine clinics charge a consultation fee but ours is among the lowest at $49. We know each trip is a unique experience and our advice is tailored to the exact itinerary of every traveller.

All publicly funded vaccines are administered free of charge.

Central location.

We are located in Downtown Ottawa just steps from Parliament Hill, CF Rideau Centre and Centretown.

Our location is ideal for those who work in the downtown core and is also easily accessible by bus and LRT as we are directly along the transitway. Metcalfe Station is directly in front of our building.

For those driving to our clinic, parking is readily available next door at the World Exchange Plaza.

Lorne Weiner is a good doctor. I can't put it more plainly than that. He's just a straight out good doctor. Not just for travel. He's been my doctor for 20 years. He's a good doctor.

I saw Dr. Weiner after seeing my family physician for a travel consult and I wish I had gone to Dr. Weiner prior to seeing my family GP. It was extremely quick to get in to see him for a travel consult, the staff there are all extremely nice and professional, and the fees were HALF of what my family GP charged me for a consult. He travels a ton, so he knew exactly what I needed for my trip to Peru, laid out my options for medications, giving me the pros and cons of everything, and even went above and beyond, telling me what kind of clothing I should bring, a handout on foods to avoid to prevent illness. additionally, all the services were done in his office. I had to come back to get my vaccines which is to be expected but all my prescriptions were given to me the day of, no extra stops to the pharmacy. I will definitely be going back to this clinic for my future travels, I highly recommened Dr. Weiner.

$49 for a consultation with a travel doctor is a really good price. I'll be back next year for my Asia trip.

I had a good experience here. The Dr answered all my questions and was very friendly. He advised me on vaccines (I got them done there that day), cautioned me on eating certain foods, and provided the prescriptions I needed. I came here because of the low consult price and was so happy to find the service was great too. The receptionist and nurse were good as well.
We saw Dr Lorne Weiner before our honeymoon trip to Cuba. He was so helpful and didn't try to push any vaccines that weren't completely necessary. The rates were fare and they didn't charge us for our flu shot, which we were quoted at $30 each at another clinic before calling this one. Dr Weiner also gave us antibiotics as a honeymoon gift as a precaution. 🙂 This was a very nice gesture and while we are very happy we didn't have to use them it was great to have them just in case one of us fell ill. I would and will recommend this travel clinic to anyone I know that is travelling. It was truly a great experience!
I chose this travel clinic for my trip to Thailand and Bali. I had been there 5 years ago and they had my record so I didn't need as many vaccines. I was recommended malaria pills which were reasonably priced. The whole appointment was quick and I got a receipt which my insurance approved 100%

Dr. Lorne Weiner is absolutely the best doctor I know of. I was there for my medical examination. From setting up appointment, registration, consultation and check up process, all staff and physician you met were wonderful, professional and dedicated people.

Best in town. I'm sure there are other good travel clinics in Ottawa but there are also a few not so great ones that I went to before discovering this one. If you want a place where they actually care about you as a patient and world traveler and aren't just trying to make a quick buck then come here. Everyone sees Lorne, not just an assistant, and I've never felt rushed to get in and out like some other places.
I accompanied my friend to her appointment due to her fear of needles and we were NOT disappointed. Dr. Lorne Weiner was fantastic, professional and hilarious. He made my friend feel at ease and her appointment went by without a hitch. Incredible service, incredible time, incredible Monday. Xo

Came here before my trip to Bali and Thailand. The clinic had all the vaccines and medicine in the office so I didn't have to go to a pharmacy or anything after. Prices were decent and I didn't get sick at all on my trip!
Location is walking distance from most offices downtown. Appointment was efficient but didn't seem rushed and the doctor explained what vaccines I definitely needed and ones that I were not completely required for my trip to South America. Will return for my next trip.

Online booking was quick. The Doctor was on time and their fee was not expensive. I would recommend the travel clinic to friends and family and will book again for my trip to south america next year.
Good prices for a travel clinic. Location is right next to world exchange plaza and the 95 bus stop is literally outside the building making it a good way to arrive especially during rush hour. Not usually a wait. Was recommended by a friend and have been a few times. 5 stars

Very convenient for those working downtown. Heard about this clinic from a college and after coming here multiple times, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Dr Weiner is very up to date on travel medicine knowledge and travels a lot himself.

I've been coming here for years, way before you could book online or the clinic even had a website. The reason I return is the care and experience that Lorne provides. As an experienced Doctor and traveler he knows his stuff and never seems to push medicines that aren't completely necessary. Convenient location and they usually can fit me in based on my schedule.
