Healthcare for expats in Ireland
Moving country should not mean losing access to a doctor. Expats and international residents anywhere in Ireland can see an Irish-registered doctor online — no local GP registration, no waiting list, and no need to explain yourself in a second language if you would rather not.
Languages our Irish doctors consult in
Each link opens the roster filtered to doctors who consult in that language:
- Arabic — general practice, plus cardiology and neurology. See our Arabic-speaking doctor page.
- Urdu and Punjabi — general practice and paediatrics.
- Portuguese — general practice, psychology, nutrition and manual therapy.
- Spanish and French — general practice.
- Czech, Hindi, Bangla, Sindhi, Siraiki and Pashto — general practice.
Availability in a given language depends on that doctor's calendar. English is available at every slot.
What expats use us for
- GP Consultation Online — the everyday illnesses that do not wait for you to find a practice.
- Chronic Conditions: GP Review Online — continuing management of a condition you arrived with.
- Repeat Prescription Online — moving your regular medication onto an Irish prescription.
- Sick Cert — certificates for an Irish employer.
- Specialist Referral & Diagnostic Investigation Consultation — a route into Irish specialist and lab services.
- Mental Health Consultation — relocation is its own kind of stress.
How Irish prescriptions and certificates work
Our doctors are registered with the Irish Medical Council and prescribe to Irish pharmacies. Medication you were on abroad may have a different name, a different licensed dose, or no Irish equivalent — the doctor will tell you which applies and, where needed, arrange the nearest suitable option. Controlled medicines are not prescribed online.
