Each list gives you a starting point. However, opening hours, language support and the departments available can change, so we recommend confirming before you visit.

How to choose the right clinic
First, decide what kind of care you need. For colds, minor injuries or a repeat prescription, a local general clinic is usually the quickest option. For ongoing conditions or tests, a specialist clinic or hospital outpatient department may be more suitable, and some larger hospitals charge an extra fee if you arrive without a referral letter.
Next, check language support. Many clinics on our lists have staff who speak some English, but this can vary by day and by department. If you need precise communication about symptoms, medication or test results, an interpreter can make the visit much easier.
Finally, bring your residence card or passport, your health insurance card if you have one, and a list of any medication you take. As a result, the clinic can register you faster and prescribe safely.
