If you are looking for a Sanitas medical centre near you in Spain, the most important thing is not just the closest location — it is whether your Sanitas policy gives access to the centre, specialist, diagnostic test or service you need. This guide explains how English-speaking expats can check nearby Sanitas centres and choose the right health insurance.
Find a centre
The most reliable way is the Mi Sanitas app or the official cuadro médico, which show the centres included under your plan near your address. The closest centre is only the first step — also check the specialty, test or service you need is offered there under your policy.
Search by your address or postcode.
Networks can differ by plan.
Confirm the specialty or test is offered.
Some tests or treatments need prior authorisation.
We compare plans in English before you commit.

Centre vs hospital
Medical centres handle consultations and diagnostics; Sanitas hospitals (own hospitals in Madrid and Barcelona, partner hospitals elsewhere via the cuadro médico) handle emergencies, surgery and hospitalisation; Dental Milenium clinics handle dental care. See Sanitas dental options.
Cuadro médico
The cuadro médico is the official Sanitas directory of centres, hospitals and professionals included under each plan. See our cuadro médico guide and the Sanitas medical network.
Plans
Which Sanitas plans give access depends on the plan and the current cuadro médico. As a general guide:
