Sick in Portugal? We're here to help

Falling ill while travelling is stressful — especially in a country where you don't speak the language. Six Medic was built for exactly this situation. Our English-speaking doctors are available 7 days a week to assess your symptoms, provide medical advice, and issue any necessary documentation — all by secure video call from your hotel room, beach house or Airbnb.

No Portuguese health system needed

You don't need a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), a Portuguese número de utente, or private insurance to book with Six Medic. We treat tourists, travelers, and visitors from any country. Payment is by card, €80 per consultation. You receive a receipt automatically — useful for travel insurance reimbursement claims.

Medical certificates for travel insurance

If your travel insurance requires a medical certificate or doctor's letter as proof of illness, our doctors can issue this during your consultation. Certificates are signed by an EU-licensed physician with an active medical license number and sent to your email in English within hours.

Available across all of Portugal

Whether you're in Lisbon, Porto, the Algarve, Madeira, the Azores, Cascais, Sintra, Lagos, Albufeira or anywhere else in Portugal — Six Medic is available. All you need is an internet connection and a device with a camera.

Common tourist health concerns we treat: respiratory infections, urinary tract infections, stomach bugs and food poisoning, skin rashes and sunburn, allergies, ear and eye infections, fever, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, and general acute care. For life-threatening emergencies, always call 112.
