Frequently asked questions

How do I request an appointment with my primary care physician in Ávila?
In Ávila, appointments are managed through Sacyl — Health Service of Castilla and León. You can request them online on https://www.saludcastillayleon.es/es/atencion-pacientes-usuarios/cita-previa, by calling 012 (healthcare option), or in person at the reception desk of your health center. You can also use the Salud CyL app (iOS and Android).
What is the difference between a primary care physician and emergencies?
A primary care physician (or family doctor) is your regular doctor for non-urgent consultations, chronic disease follow-up, and referrals to specialists. Emergency services are for situations requiring immediate attention (severe pain, high fever, new concerning symptom). Using emergency services for non-urgent issues overwhelms the system.
How do I access a doctor if I live in a small town in Castilla and León?
Rural towns in Castilla and León have periodic medical care from mobile doctors who visit local clinics (usually 1-3 times per week). Check the calendar of your clinic with your local government or on Sacyl's website.
Can I request an appointment for a family member?
Yes. You can request appointments for family members (children, elderly relatives) through the same channels. You will need their health card number.
How long do I have to wait to see my primary care physician?
For non-urgent cases, the typical waiting time is 1 to 3 working days depending on demand in your area. If it's an urgent but not severe issue, you can request it as 'urgent' during the appointment booking.
