Frequently asked questions

How do I request an appointment with my family doctor in Torrevieja?
In Torrevieja, medical appointments are managed through Sanitat Valenciana — Generalitat Valenciana. You can make a request online at https://www.san.gva.es/es/web/sanitat-en-linea/cita-previa, call 900 010 024 or go to the reception desk of your Health Center.

What is the difference between a family doctor and an emergency room?
The family doctor (or general practitioner) is your regular doctor for non-urgent consultations, chronic disease follow-up, and referrals to specialists. Emergency rooms are for situations requiring immediate attention (acute pain, high fever, accident). Using emergencies for non-urgent issues can overload the system.
What is the SIP card in the Community of Valencia?
The SIP (Population Information System) is the health card used in the Community of Valencia. It is necessary to request an appointment and visit a doctor. If you do not have it or have lost it, apply for a new one at your Health Center with your DNI or NIE and the residency certificate.
Can I request an appointment for a family member?
Yes. You can request an appointment for a family member (minor children, elderly in care) through the same channels. You will need their health card number.
How long do I have to wait to see my family doctor?
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 serious enough for emergencies, you can request it as 'urgent' during the appointment.
