Private dermatology consultations in Madrid and secure online care throughout Spain for international residents.
“I offer you quality dermatological care in-person and online, always with honesty, scientific rigor and close communication.”
If you are an expatriate living in Spain and looking for an English-speaking dermatologist, you may have questions about how the healthcare system works, how to obtain prescriptions, or whether you can continue treatment while travelling. Many expats in Spain search for an English dermatologist to avoid language barriers and ensure clear communication about diagnosis and treatment.
I provide private dermatology consultations in Madrid as well as secure online consultations throughout Spain, offering clear communication, evidence-based care, and practical solutions for international patients.
This service is designed to make accessing dermatologic care in Spain simple and reassuring.
Who Is This Service For?
This practice is particularly suited for:
- Expats living in Spain
- International professionals relocated to Madrid
- Digital nomads
- Erasmus and international students
- Patients spending extended periods in Spain
- Individuals seeking a second opinion before returning to their home country
Whether you live in Madrid or elsewhere in Spain, you can access dermatologic care in English, without unnecessary administrative barriers.
How Does Dermatology Care Work In Spain?
Many expatriates are unfamiliar with the Spanish healthcare system. In Spain, patients can access care through either the public or the private system.
Public Healthcare
The public system usually requires a referral from a general practitioner before seeing a specialist. Waiting times may vary depending on the region.
Private Healthcare
Private dermatology consultations allow direct access to a specialist without a referral. Appointments are typically available more quickly, and consultations are more flexible.
As a private dermatologist in Madrid, I offer direct specialist access and provide medical invoices suitable for private insurance reimbursement.
Can I Get A Prescription In Spain As A Foreigner?
Yes.
If a treatment is medically indicated, an electronic prescription will be issued following your consultation. This prescription:
- Is valid at pharmacies throughout Spain
- Does not require a Spanish public health card
- Can be sent directly to your email
This applies to both in-person and online consultations.
If you are unsure how prescriptions work in Spain, this will be clearly explained during your appointment.
In-Person Dermatology In Spain
Face-to-face consultations take place at the clinic in the Salamanca district of Madrid.
An in-person appointment allows for:
- Full dermatologic examination
- Dermoscopic evaluation of moles and pigmented lesions
- Diagnosis and personalized treatment planning
- Minor dermatologic procedures when indicated
Consultations are conducted in English in a professional and discreet environment.
Online Dermatology for Expats Living in Spain
Online consultations are a practical solution for many expatriates, especially those who travel frequently or live outside Madrid. Online dermatology consultations are available anywhere in Spain, making specialist care accessible beyond the capital.
Two formats are available:
MESSAGE consultation (asynchronous)
49€

LIVE VIDEO CONSULTATION
80€
- A real-time video appointment where we can discuss your concerns and review any photos or files together.
- Prescriptions — if needed — will be sent by email after the consultation.
Online dermatology is particularly useful for:
- Follow-up while travelling
- Managing chronic skin conditions
- Patients living in different regions of Spain
- Second opinions before returning home
Follow-Up While Travelling
If you temporarily leave Spain for work or personal reasons, follow-up consultations can be conducted online. This allows continuity of care without interrupting treatment plans.
Second Opinion Before Returning Home
Some international patients seek a dermatology second opinion before returning to their home country.
Whether you need clarification about a diagnosis, treatment adjustment, or mole evaluation, a structured consultation can provide reassurance and a clear management plan.
