Do you mean in Arona Town or Arona the municipality?
There are several in Arona Municipality but depends on where you live as to which one you can register at and use.
Give a bit more info and you will get more replies and details:wink:

I am not sure that there is one in Arona town but I would say probably Valle San Lorenzo would be the next nearest.It may have been that Los Cris has its full quota and cannot take on anymore patients at the moment.Valle San Lorenzo is a large new medical centre so is likely to have more medics thus more spaces for patients.

Your local medical centre is at Cabo Blanco.

From La Camella, turn to go to Cabo Blanco and then take a left between the half built JJ Aleman apartment blocks as though you were going to Mercadona.

Go past Mercadona (which will be on your right), straight on down the hill and after you go past the 2nd (?) road on the right, you will see a big car park on your right - the entrance is just before the 3rd road on the right.

Turn into the car park and head for the right hand corner. The medical centre is on your left.

TBH I have never tried speaking to them in English. I suspect that they may have a limited knowledge, but not much.

Best bet is to either take someone with you that can translate or write down any medical terms that you may need.

there are a few there who speak a little english but only a couple of the doctors its easy enough to make an appointment tho, then take a translator with you for the appt, i use a very good one who lives in chayofa.
