Frequently asked questions

How do I request a doctor's appointment in Cordoba?
In Cordoba, the doctor's appointment is managed through the SAS — Andalusian Health Service. You can request it online on https://www.sspa.juntadeandalucia.es/servicioandaluzdesalud/ciudadanos/cita-sanitaria-online, by calling 955 54 50 60, or by visiting your nearest Health Center. You can also use the Salud Andalusia app (iOS and Android).
What is the difference between the general practitioner and the emergency department?
The general practitioner (or family doctor) is your usual doctor for non-urgent cases, chronic disease follow-up, and referrals to specialists. The emergency department is for situations that require immediate attention (acute pain, high fever, new concerning symptom). Using the emergency department for non-urgent cases overloads the system.
Can I change my general practitioner in Andalusia?
Yes. In Andalusia, you have the right to choose your general practitioner and pediatrician within those available in your health area. You can request it at the reception desk of your Health Center or through the SAS portal, providing your health card and ID.
Can I request an appointment for a family member?
Yes. You can request an appointment for a family member (minor children, elderly dependents) through the same channels. You will need the family member's health card number.
How long do I have to wait to see my general practitioner?
For non-urgent cases, the usual waiting time is 1 to 5 working days depending on the demand in your area. If the reason is urgent but not severe enough to go to the emergency department, you can request it as "urgent" on the appointment request.
