Frequently asked questions

How do I request an appointment with my general practitioner in Burgos?
In Burgos, you can manage your medical appointments through Sacyl — Castilla and León Healthcare. You can make a reservation 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. Also, you can use the Salud CyL app (iOS and Android).
What is the difference between a general practitioner and an emergency service?
A general practitioner (or family doctor) is your regular doctor for non-urgent consultations, chronic disease follow-up, and specialist referrals. Emergency services are for situations that require immediate attention (acute pain, high fever, accident). Use emergency services only for urgent cases.
How do I access a doctor if I live in a small village in Castilla and León?
Rural towns in Castilla and León have periodic mobile medical visits to local clinics (usually 1-3 times per week). Check your clinic's calendar at the town hall or on Sacyl's website.
Can I request an appointment for a family member?
Yes. You can make appointments for family members (children, elderly relatives) through the same channels. You will need the health card number of the family member.
How long should I wait to see my general practitioner?
For non-urgent cases, the usual waiting time is 1 to 3 business days depending on demand in your area. If the reason is urgent but not severe enough for emergency services, you can request an urgent appointment.
