In case of an emergency proceed directly to the nearest state "Centro de Salud" (open 24 hrs.) or to "Urgencias" at the "Hospital General Universitario" in Elche.

Thank you. It's not an emergency but I need some medication ASAP. I'll go to the Centro de Salud in Santa Pola.
Hello Jackie
You won't know until you ask .In La Mata Salud recently, my appt. was cancelled because my Dr. was off sick & it took another week to see a replacement doctor.
If you need a repeat of meds you've had before/recently via a prescription, then reception staff might be able to arrange to get that for you.
Cheers

Do you not have access to the Generalitat Valenciana app? If so, you can manage your own appointments from there. You will need a digital certificate to complete the process:

Hi Jackie .. if u get no joy , you could go to the private doctor up at the glorieta and pay out of pocket if it’s urgent.( not sure if you are an S1 holder or not ) The entrance is next to Phone House right by the castle . Go up the stairs to the first door and ring the bell. The receptionist/ nurse is usually quite helpful .
