Healthcare in Alicante: what visitors and residents should know
How local care works in Alicante and across Costa Blanca, Spain — and where an online doctor fits alongside it.
Public healthcare in Alicante is delivered by the Conselleria de Sanitat of the Generalitat Valenciana, the Valencian Community's own health department, through a network of centros de salud and hospital urgencias departments. Both Spanish and Valencian are co-official here, and signage in health facilities is often bilingual, though English is widely spoken in the coastal resort belt in a way it is not inland. State healthcare is run at regional level, so the rules you meet depend on where you are rather than on Spain as a whole. EU, EEA and Swiss visitors holding an EHIC (or a UK GHIC) can use public primary care and emergency departments on the same terms as residents, though you will normally be asked for the card plus photo ID at reception. Outside surgery hours, pharmacies operate a rota — the farmacia de guardia — and the duty pharmacy is posted in the window of every closed chemist. Alicante's health demand is shaped by its permanent population of British and Northern European retirees living along the Costa Blanca between Torrevieja and Dénia — a group that tends to need repeat prescriptions and management of ongoing conditions rather than one-off holiday care. Summer brings the region's seasonal pattern of heat exhaustion, severe sunburn and jellyfish stings along the beaches, and the local pharmacy rota is under heaviest load in July and August.

Can I get Ozempic or Wegovy prescribed online in Spain?
Yes, our licensed doctors can prescribe GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) if you meet the clinical criteria (typically BMI ≥ 30, or ≥ 27 with weight-related conditions). However, please note that pharmacy stock levels in Spain can fluctuate.
Do I need blood tests before starting weight loss medication?
Depending on your medical history and the specific medication, our doctors may require recent blood work (like thyroid function, HbA1c, or lipid panels) before prescribing. We can provide a lab requisition if needed.
How much do GLP-1 medications cost in Spain?
The cost of the medication at the pharmacy is separate from our consultation fee. In Spain, GLP-1 medications typically range from €130 to €300 per month when purchased privately without public health system subsidies.
Is this a one-time consultation or an ongoing program?
Medical weight loss requires ongoing monitoring. We typically prescribe a 1-month starting dose and require follow-up consultations to monitor your progress, manage side effects, and adjust dosages safely.
What if the pharmacy doesn't have the medication in stock?
Due to global demand, some GLP-1 medications experience shortages. If your prescribed medication is out of stock, our doctors can consult with you to find an available alternative.
