Emergency medical help in Girona
🚨 Life-threatening emergencies
If you have a life-threatening emergency, call 112 (the European emergency number).
You may be connected to a doctor for a phone consult, or an ambulance will be sent.
Be ready to give your address, including your flat or house number.
🏥 Emergency rooms
If you can make your own way to a hospital, these are the main public emergency centers:
- Hospital Josep Trueta (main ER in Girona). Avinguda de França. 📞 972 94 02 00

- CAP Güell (for urgent but non-hospital care). 📞 972 21 07 08. Open 24/7
These centers will treat you without requiring immediate payment.
If you are not in the public health system, you’ll receive a bill you can send to your insurance provider.
Note: EU citizens with an EHIC card are covered for public care.
