Not a substitute for medical advice

Our content is not a substitute for professional medical diagnosis or treatment. It cannot take your individual circumstances, medical history or current condition into account. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional with any questions about a medical condition. Never disregard or delay seeking professional medical advice because of something you read on this website.

In a life-threatening emergency in Malta, call 112 immediately. For urgent but non-life-threatening situations, see our Emergency Help page.

Information can change

Information about government services, permit requirements, opening hours and healthcare rules may change. Verify time-sensitive information with official Maltese sources before acting on it. Where our articles cite official sources, we link to them so you can check the original.

What we are not

DoctorMalta.com is not the Government of Malta, Identità, Primary HealthCare or the Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Directorate. It is an independent informational website and is not an official health authority.

Private healthcare, transparently

Where private healthcare services are linked, we identify the provider transparently. Private medical consultations are available through Doctor St Julian's Clinic, Malta, which DoctorMalta.com links to as a commercial partner. This does not mean other public or private providers are unsuitable - we always signpost emergency care and public services where appropriate.
