Care in Paris, our nearest city to Lisbon

Many people in Lisbon begin in Paris, the closest of our cities, where we arrange care with the city's best clinics and follow it through, with private GP from €180, doctor at your home or hotel from €160 and executive health from €5,750.

Members are seen first, and anyone can request an appointment today. Your results and your plan stay in one record, so a doctor in London begins where a doctor in Paris left off.

Care in London for people from Lisbon

Our clinics are on Baker Street in Marylebone and Eccleston Street in Belgravia, open from early morning to evening every day. A GP appointment is £150, a doctor to your hotel is £450, and the executive physical, a full day with one physician and every result reviewed before you leave, is £2,995.

Your concierge arranges specialists, scans and tests around the days you are in London, so a short visit holds everything you came for.

Travelling to London for care

Holders of a passport from Portugal can apply for an electronic travel authorisation, which costs £20 and allows a visit of up to 6 months [1] [2]. Medical treatment is among the reasons a visitor may come [3].

Health care in Lisbon

Portugal's National Health Service is founded on the principles of universality, generality and care that tends to be free of charge [4].

A specialist title in Portugal takes effect only once the doctor is registered with the specialty college of the Ordem dos Médicos, and doctors trained abroad in another language must pass a medical communication test before they practise [5].

Lisbon is Portugal's largest population centre, with 545,142 inhabitants counted in the 2021 census [6].

Arranging a visit from Lisbon

Start with a message on WhatsApp or a request here, with the dates you could travel and what you would most like answered. Your concierge replies within the hour, whatever the time in Lisbon, and offers appointment times before you commit to a flight.

Where a visit includes scans or blood tests, we set them early in your stay, so that your doctor can go through every result with you before you leave. Specialist appointments are arranged on the days around it, and each fee is told to you before anything is confirmed.

Time zones and travel

We arrange calls at an hour that suits you in Lisbon. After a long flight, a first appointment on the morning after you arrive usually leaves you clearer than one on the day itself, and your concierge will suggest it.

Before you travel, a checklist

A little preparation lets a doctor see the whole picture on the first day.

  • Your recent results and letters, in English where you can, on your phone or on paper
  • A list of your medicines and their doses, with a letter from your doctor for any that are restricted
  • The question you most want answered, written down
  • The dates you are in the city, so your concierge can plan tests and results around them

When you are home again

Your doctor can follow up by telephone or video wherever you are, and your plan stays in your record. If you need care where you live, your concierge can help you find it and send your letters ahead, with your consent.

Every letter is written in English, so a doctor in Lisbon can read it, and your results stay available to you after you fly home. When you next travel, your doctor begins from where you left off.
