- I'm in Valladolid. Which hospital has an emergency department?
- Both public hospitals do: Hospital Clínico Universitario on Avenida Ramón y Cajal, for the east of the city, and Hospital Universitario Río Hortega on Calle Dulzaina, for the west. In an emergency, call 112.
- I'm an English teacher or student. Can you help?
- Yes. Colds, sore throats, stomach upsets, urine infections and short-term follow-ups can often be handled by video. If you need a sick note, it is assessed within the same visit, only if clinically justified.
- Can I get an invoice for my insurer?
- Yes. The video visit is €50 for 15 minutes, every day from 07:30 to 20:30, Spain time, with an itemised invoice for your insurer.
- Which areas around Valladolid do you cover?
- By video, all of them: Valladolid, Laguna de Duero, Arroyo de la Encomienda, Medina del Campo and Peñafiel. You need a phone or laptop and a quiet spot with a good connection. Dr. Yelamo does not do home visits.
- Is Dr. Yelamo licensed to practise in Spain?
- Yes. Dr. Pedro Yelamo Vera is a physician licensed in Spain (Nº Colegiado 484814280) and a member of the Ilustre Colegio Oficial de Médicos de Bizkaia. He sees patients by secure video in Valladolid and across Spain, and you always see the same named doctor.
- 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 in Valladolid. In an emergency, call 112: the video service is for urgent, non-emergency care.
