- Which areas around the Castellón coast do you cover?
- By video, all of them: Vinaròs, Benicarló, Peñíscola, Alcossebre, Torreblanca, Oropesa del Mar and Benicàssim. You need a phone or laptop and a quiet spot with a good connection. Dr. Yelamo does not do home visits.

- What can a video visit cover?
- Common illnesses, new symptoms and short-term follow-ups. Reviews of suitable long-term medicines. Advice, or a second opinion on test results. Children and pregnant patients can be seen too. Treatment and prescriptions are issued solely at the doctor's discretion, only if clinically indicated after a video assessment. Controlled medicines, such as sleeping pills, strong painkillers, stimulants and gabapentinoids, are not prescribed online.
- What if I need to be examined in person?
- Some problems need a physical exam, a scan or emergency care. If yours does, you will be told clearly and pointed to the right in-person service on the Castellón coast. In an emergency, call 112: the video service is for urgent, non-emergency care.
