Frequently asked questions

How do I request a primary care doctor’s appointment in Valencia?
In Valencia, medical appointments are managed through Sanitat Valenciana — Conselleria de Sanitat. You can request one online at https://www.san.gva.es/es/web/sanitat-en-linea/cita-previa, by calling 900 010 024 or in person at your local Health Center. The GVA+ Salud app (iOS and Android) is also available.
What’s the difference between a primary care doctor and emergency services?
A primary care doctor (or family doctor) is your regular doctor for non-urgent consultations, chronic disease follow-up, and referrals to specialists. Emergency services are for situations that require immediate attention (severe pain, high fever, accident). Using emergencies for non-urgent issues overloads the system.
What is the SIP card in the Community of Valencia?
The SIP (Population Information System) card is the health card of the Community of Valencia. It’s necessary to request an appointment and visit a doctor. If you don’t have it or lost it, get a new one at your local Health Center with your DNI, NIE, and residency certificate.
Can I request an appointment for my family members?
Yes. You can request appointments for family members (children under 18, elderly dependents) through the same channels. You’ll need their health card number.
How long do I have to wait to see a primary care doctor?
For non-urgent cases, the typical waiting time is 1 to 3 business days depending on demand in your area. If it’s urgent but not severe enough for emergency, you can request it as an 'urgent' appointment.
