| Under the Weather If you do feel under the weather then your first port of call should be the local chemist (farmacia) - there are six in the area. All are very helpful and speak good English and they will usually advise a remedy, or if a visit to the doctor is necessary. If you are covered by holiday or private insurance for medical treatment, one of the private surgeries is the place to go. Do keep all your receipts for medical treatment and medication to enable you to make an insurance claim on your return home. A trip to a local doctor will cost you in the region of 70-75 euros. The National Health clinic (Insalud) is situated in Calle dels Molins and you can receive treatment there if you have a European Health Card which replaced the old form E111. Take the original form and a photocopy of it, as well as your passport with you. Telephone number 971-694615. If you require an ambulance in an extreme emergency then ring the police on 092 or the Helpline on 112 and they will make the arrangements. You may well be asked to pay the cost of the ambulance when it arrives, so make sure you have some cash available. www.calamillor-mallorca.com
