Making an appointment
You can make an appointment for an examination or personal consultation with your doctor. Your doctor can also provide medical care, advice, guidance and prescription renewals over the phone. For simple, non-urgent matters, you can contact your doctor by email. Home visits by your doctor are possible in exceptional circumstances.
General practitioners in Denmark have an emergency number that allows you to contact a doctor between 8 A.M. and 4 P.M.
Treatment or referral
After diagnosing your illness or injury, the doctor can start treatment or refer you to specialists, a hospital or other forms of treatment.
Outside your doctor's opening hours
In the event of serious illness or injury after hours (4 P.M.-8 A.M. on weekdays, and at weekends), call 1813.
Prescription renewal through 1813 is limited to essential medication only. Other prescriptions should be renewed through your own doctor.
Always call 1-1-2 in the event of life-threatening illness or injury.
