Not all PCP's are well-versed in travel medicine, especially when talking about more than just vaccines. Travel doctors specialize in the topic, which is important when talking about conditions that can't be prevented by a vaccine like dengue.

Certainly there are primary care doctors who can make perfectly sound recommendations in this area but I'd go to specialist.
