Hi all, moving to Garrucha in December,can anyone tell us which health center we sign on to? We both have residency and our reciprocal health cards,and any English speaking doctors there? We're trying to learn Spanish but it's not very good at the moment.

Thanks

Hello.  Garrucha Centro de salud is your nearest.  Doctor Maria Jose speaks very good English.  If you have a translator on your phone you can ask to go on her panel when you go in with your papers.  The receptionists don't speak English but you can always show them your phone with the translation on it.  Good luck.

Hi we are hoping to register their ourselves in the next few weeks. Will let you know how it goes.  For Spanish we are using the internet Duolingo which is quite easy.  Where are you in Garrucha?  The medical centre is on the main road through the to centre just  after the square by the Town Hall.

Hi Alicia, we're about 1 k from Mercadona towards Vera Playa, about half way between the two.. on the main road.

It will be great to hear how you get on.

Thanks.
