Very clean and organized floor, fast and efficient processes, and really friendly staff! Although this is considered a private clinic, it gave me so much reassurance about the health system in Italy overall. I came in for a medical certificate with EKG and it was a very routine and smooth process. I paid 82 euros. Prices are higher than a public clinic but still reasonable. The front desk assistant was very helpful and kind and answered all my questions about public and private healthcare in Italy. 100% recommend this clinic for any non-urgent, preventive care, and routine checkups.

La dottoressa Cento was fantastic! I was so grateful to have found a doctor who was so kind, knowledgeable and willing to be collaborative with a patient. Update: I just saw the nurse, Julia, and , another great experience. So professional, thorough, and kind. She had take a lot of blood for lab tests, she was gentle and lead me through the process effortlessly. Thank you Julia.

I was recently in Rome and became unwell. The staff at FirstMed were absolutely brilliant. They enabled me to have quick access to a variety of doctors and tests and the reception staff went above and beyond to help me book what I needed across a language barrier. I am very grateful for their compassion, efficiency and care.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, insurance is not required for online appointments. Telemedicine visits are offered at an affordable rate for direct out-of-pocket payments.

Insurance may be accepted for some telemedicine visits. Please contact our clinic to confirm eligibility. 

Please contact us to inquire about other specialities. Our team is happy to evaluate whether your concern is treatable via telemedicine.

Each consultation is dedicated to a single primary clinical concern. 

Yes. Telemedicine consultations for renewal requests are available for some prescription categories.
  • If you are unsure whether your medication is eligible for a prescription renewal via telemedicine, please contact us via our 24/hour telephone assistance or via our contact page.
Please note that the following medications cannot be prescribed via telemedicine:
  • Antiviral Covid-19 medication (paxlovid),

  • Benzodiazepines (e.g. xanax, valium),
  • Narcotic pain medications (e.g. oxycodone, codeine)
For eligible medications, please have your existing or most recent prescription ready for the doctor to review during your appointment. Please note that prescription renewals cannot be guaranteed, as the issuance of any prescription is up to the discretion of the attending physician.

Digital Prescriptions

If the physician provides a prescription, it will be issued digitally:

  • While many pharmacies in Itay accept digital prescriptions, some may require a printed copy or even the original prescription. We recommend printing your prescription before going to the pharmacy.
  • If you are unable to print the prescription, you may need to try more than one pharmacy. Please note that the acceptance of digital prescriptions is determined by the pharmacy and is outside the clinic’s control.
  • If the medication requires an original prescription, the clinic can mail the prescription to you for an additional shipping fee determined by location and urgency.

Due to local regulations, consultations for medical certificates of any nature cannot be provided via Telemedicine. Including, but not limited to, a medical sports certificate, a fit-to-fly certificate, etc. 

Alternatively, these can be evaluated in-person at our physical clinics based in Rome and Milan. For more information, please visit firstmedcenters.it

  • Please note that evaluation for a medical sports certificate requires an in-person appointment with cardiology not general medicine.

Due to local regulations, prescribing Paxlovid or Covid-19 anti-viral medication is not available via telemedicine.
