Finding an English speaking doctor in Santa Cruz de Tenerife can mean a long wait at a clinic. Or it can mean hoping the pharmacist speaks enough English. Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera is a doctor licensed in Spain who speaks fluent English and Spanish. You can see him by secure video from anywhere in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. That includes the harbourfront near the Auditorio and the historic centre, or a hotel nearby in the Canary Islands.
Skip the clinic waiting room and the trip across town. See a doctor from wherever you are staying in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. Appointments are offered every day, 07:30–20:30 (Spain time).
Describe your symptoms in your own words. Understand every word of your diagnosis and your plan. Nothing gets lost in translation.
Clear advice on Santa Cruz de Tenerife pharmacies and on the public SCS (Servicio Canario de Salud) system versus private care. You will also know when you truly need a specialist or a face-to-face visit.

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.
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.
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.
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.
