Where to Get an MRI in Gran Canaria
Need an MRI in Gran Canaria? You’re not alone. Whether it’s a doctor-recommended scan or you’re just trying to rule out that mysterious shoulder pain that’s been hanging around since your last surf lesson, here’s the lowdown from people who’ve actually been there, scanned that.
🏥 HPS Hospitales: Reliable and Professional (with a Side of English)
Angela had her MRI done at HPS Perpetuo Socorro and reported a smooth experience — with a few handy tips for navigating the system if your Spanish is still a work in progress.
🩺 You will need a prescription from a doctor. Angela got hers directly from a doc at HPS, which made things much easier.
💬 The nurses and MRI technicians spoke some English, which made everything a bit less nerve-racking.
📅 You can book appointments online (huge bonus if you’re not up for phone calls in Spanish). Head to hpshospitales.com, switch the site to English, choose your speciality, and click on Cita Previa.
💳 Angela used Cigna insurance through her employer, so she didn’t deal with payment directly — but if you’re paying out of pocket, you might want to check prices first.
