Hi Terry,

Sorry to hear that, but I'm afraid doctors in Spain don't make house calls. You need to get him to your nearest Centro de Salud (Health Centre) or Hospital A&E. If he doesn't have an S1 for free reciprocal healthcare, or private health insurance, he will need to take his EHIC (European Health Insurance Card) and passport with him. If it's an emergency, call 112 (they have operators who speak English) and ask for an ambulance.

Best wishes for his speedy recovery.

Kind regards,

Kim

I've just replied to a post on the Denia forum with the same wording/question.

I would suggest getting your partner to Denia Hospital A&E straight away.

Here's a taxi number in Pedreguer, English speaking, or call 112 to speak to the ambulance line. Colin 00 34 635 44 29 11
