Dear community,
we will be staying in Lisbon for two months starting february. My son will turn 4 months and will need to have his second vaccinations. We are looking for an english speaking oediatrictionto perform the vaccination. I called CUF Infante hospital but they said they would only do the vaccination if we had a portuguese vaccination card, which we don’t. Would you know a hospital/pediatrician who could do the vaccination?

Many thanks for your help.
kind regards,
Cornelia

Hi

I hope you got all sorted out with a Peds.
My wife and I had an issue with finding health care when we moved to Lisbon so we created an app called Kovered to help others like us. The app locates and health and well being providers in Portugal.

Hope this helps
