<span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - These are the 19 doctors surgeries and health centres in Murcia closing in August 2022... and where to go instead

This summer, when many public services close down in Spain, there will be a total of 19 doctor’s surgeries in Murcia shutting their doors for August.

However, the Ministry of Health has promised that healthcare in the Region will continue to be guaranteed during this summer period with alternative health centres for patients to go to.

This year, 19 out of 170 ‘consultorio’ clinics in Murcia will be closed for August and even into September, fewer than in previous years, while 85 ‘centro de salud’ health centres will remain open.

The Regional Health Ministry said, “The organisation of the health system is being worked on permanently during the summer season, and may vary depending on hiring or temporary incapacity of professionals at any given time… [Murcia] has more than 5,000 more professionals in summer to guarantee health care in all parts of the Community.”
