Michael Aziz, MD

Primary Care Physician & Internist located in Midtown East, New York, NY

In our global world, over 1 million people travel internationally each day. In many underdeveloped countries, many vaccine preventable diseases are still fairly common such as polio and measles. Without vaccines, epidemics of many preventable diseases could return to the US resulting in increased illness and even death. For this reason, vaccination before travel is imperative to ensure global public health. Dr. Michael Aziz is committed to ensuring maximum immunization coverage to his patients in his Midtown East practice from children to the elderly.

Routine Immunizations & Tests:

Although vaccine-preventable disease levels in the United States have decreased significantly from historic highs, this fact does not mean diseases have disappeared. Indeed, many preventable diseases are in fact making a resurgence due to relaxed adherence to vaccination guidelines. As recent measles and whooping cough outbreaks have shown, we can never take immunization coverage levels for granted or be lax about prevention with vaccination efforts.

  • Hepatitis A (adult and pediatric)
  • Hepatitis B (adult and pediatric)
  • Twinrix (combination Hep A & Hep B)
