A normal doctor’s appointment — history, examination and a plan for what happens next — with one difference: the whole conversation is in English. Come to one of our clinics or book a video visit. No referral, no Polish insurance and no PESEL number: a passport is enough.
A primary care clinic, not an agencyPrescriptions, referrals and sick notes issued on the visit
Most of our English-speaking patients arrive in one of four situations. Any of them is reason enough to book — you do not need to be registered with us, insured here, or fluent in anything but English.
You have a job here but your Polish is not there yet. Describe your symptoms properly, understand the treatment, and get a sick note if you need one.
Erasmus, a full degree or a language course. No PESEL number and no Polish insurance needed — bring your passport and that is it.
A business trip, a conference or a holiday. Something needs looking at now and you cannot wait until you are home.
You have been in Poland for a while and would still rather not go through your health with a translation app or a relative interpreting.
699 570 191, then press 9 for English. Booked by phone only — say whether you want to come in or have a video visit, and we match the clinic and the doctor.
History, examination and a plan — all in English. Bring any results or discharge letters you already have, in whatever language they are in.
A prescription, referral or sick note is issued in the Polish e-health system, so its text is Polish. The doctor tells you in English what each one means.
How and where to collect the medication, and which further tests are worth doing. We arrange those at Dr Teraz, so you are not left to find them on your own.
A Polish pharmacy and a Polish lab are the two places where a visit in English usually falls apart. This is the part we walk you through.
Our test and ultrasound pages are in Polish — the reception and the doctor take you through the booking in English.
In the clinic or by video — same price
We are a Polish primary care clinic (POZ), so if you live in Poland and are insured with the NFZ you can register with us and use standard appointments at no charge. What we cannot promise in that lane is the language — you get the doctor who has the slot. The English consultation is paid because that is what lets us guarantee it.
That form is in Polish. Call 699 570 191, press 9, and we fill it in with you.
The recorded menu that answers is in Polish — do not hang up. Press 9 and you are put through to reception in English. This is the only way to book this visit: someone has to find a slot with a doctor who sees patients in English, which no online form can do. They also answer questions about a prescription you already have.
Doctors see patients at these clinics only, and the age they take patients from differs — check that before you book.
We see patients by appointment only — you get a specific day and time when you book. Tell us which clinic suits you — or take a video visit, which works from anywhere in Poland and costs the same.
Yes. The history, the examination and the treatment plan are all in English. Tell us when you call — we give you a slot with a doctor who sees patients in this language.
Yes, we run the English consultation remotely as well. Ask for it on the phone. If the doctor decides you need to be examined, they will move you to an in-person visit at one of our clinics.
Call our helpline and press 9 — that is the option for English. The number is in the booking panel at the top of this page and at the bottom of every page. This is also how you book the visit.
Not this visit — the English consultation is booked by phone. Someone has to match you with a doctor who sees patients in English and check which clinic has the nearest slot, and the online form cannot do that. Call and press 9; it takes a minute.
No. The English consultation is a paid service, so NFZ insurance is not involved, and no referral is needed. Bring an ID document — a passport is enough; if you have no PESEL number we register you from the passport.
The price is at the top of this page and you pay at the clinic after the visit — cash or card, no prepayment. Ask at the reception for a receipt if your insurer wants proof of payment.
Documents are issued in the Polish e-health system, so their text is in Polish. The doctor goes through each of them in English — what it says, what to do with it and how to take the medication.
Yes, that is part of the visit. You get an e-prescription code by SMS or as a printout and any pharmacy in Poland can dispense it. The doctor tells you what to ask for at the counter, what the medicine is for and what to do if that particular pharmacy does not have it.
The doctor says which tests actually make sense and we arrange them at Dr Teraz — blood is taken at our collection points, ultrasound in Warsaw Ochota. You come back with the results, in person or by video, and the doctor goes through them with you in English.
If you are employed and insured in Poland, yes — the doctor issues an electronic sick note (e-ZLA) and it reaches ZUS and your employer on its own, with nothing for you to hand in. For an employer outside Poland the Polish e-ZLA will not reach them, so ask the doctor for a medical certificate instead.
It depends on the clinic: Warsaw Białołęka sees patients of any age, Warsaw Ochota from 16 and Poznań Dębiec from 18. When you call we tell you which of them has a slot with an English-speaking doctor.
These pages are in Polish — ask on the phone or at the reception and we go through any of them with you in English.
Press 9 when the menu answers and you are through to reception in English. No referral, nothing to pay up front — 200 zł at the reception after the visit.
