Direct Care with Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera (Colegiado No. 484814280)

Getting medical care in Spain as a tourist, digital nomad or expat can be hard. Language gaps at the public urgencias, new pharmacy rules and clinic sign-up forms can all slow you down when you need care soon.

Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera offers caring, bilingual GP care by secure HD video. You can join from your phone or laptop, wherever you are. There is no need to travel to a clinic.

Official Spanish E-Prescriptions & Insurance Invoices

Prescriptions are issued only where clinically appropriate, following a genuine evaluation. They are valid throughout Spain and, under EU Directive 2011/24/EU, can be dispensed in other EU and EEA countries where the medicine is authorised, except for some specially controlled medicines.

You receive a medical report and an itemised invoice to submit to your insurer. Check your policy before booking: reimbursement is decided by your insurer and is not guaranteed.

Evidence-Based Medical Practice (EBM)

Every consultation follows evidence-based clinical protocols. Before any treatment advice, the doctor checks your medical history, the medicines you take and any reason a treatment may not suit you.

When to seek emergency in-person care

These consultations are for urgent, non-emergency care. For severe red-flag symptoms (severe chest pressure, sudden neurological deficit, severe shortness of breath), go straight to the nearest hospital emergency department or call 112.

English speaking doctor in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria — common questions

I am only in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria for a few days — can I still book?
Yes. Tourists, digital nomads and short stays in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria are all welcome. A video call is often simpler than finding an English-speaking clinic near your hotel or Las Canteras beach.
I am staying in Gran Canaria and need a doctor — what are my options?
For an emergency, call 112. For an urgent problem that is not an emergency, you can book an online consultation in English with a licensed doctor and get medical advice from your hotel or apartment, wherever you are staying in Gran Canaria. If the doctor visit shows you need an exam, a test or treatment in person, he will tell you which local medical care to use: the SCS (Servicio Canario de Salud) health centre, a private clinic or hospital urgencias.
Is the doctor actually licensed to practise in Spain?
Yes. Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera is a physician licensed in Spain (Nº Colegiado 484814280). He is a member of the Ilustre Colegio Oficial de Médicos de Bizkaia. He sees patients across Spain by secure video, including in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
What can an online consultation cover?
Common illnesses, new symptoms, short-term follow-ups, medical advice, a second opinion on test results from a Las Palmas de Gran Canaria clinic, and many certificates or reports. Each one depends on an individual medical assessment and is only given if clinically indicated.
What if I need an in-person examination in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria?
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 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. In an emergency, call 112.
Is there an English-speaking doctor for Gran Canaria and Lanzarote?
Yes, by video on every Canary island, including Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera, a GP licensed in Spain (No. 484814280), consults in English every day from 07:30 to 20:30 mainland Spain time, which is 06:30 to 19:30 in the Canaries. There is no clinic on the islands and no home visits; if you need to be seen in person, he will tell you where. In an emergency, call 112.
