Abstract
If patients are planning to travel to developing countries, their primary care physicians can counsel them on various medical risks, especially traveler's diarrhea, and offer to update their immunizations. However, travelers to areas where there is a risk of malaria, yellow fever, or other tropical diseases should be referred to a specialist.
