About us doctors and nurses

The Mediconanet.pt website was born from a combination of experience, perception and innovation.

It is a concept of health services, which already exists in several countries and which we have now adapted to the reality of Portugal.

The founders of this project have more than 20 years of experience in primary healthcare, having worked both in the National Health Service (SNS) and in the private sector, in Portugal and other European countries.

Based on this experience, especially in the area of Remote Medicine, we have developed several innovative service proposals.

We understand that a large proportion of health problems can be resolved quickly and easily. Not all cases require the complexity of a face-to-face consultation, the inconvenience of going to an emergency department or carrying out several diagnostic tests.

Sometimes all we need is a brief action from a Doctor.

Sometimes we just need speed. And security. And discretion.

At Medico na Net, we believe that your health deserves personalised attention. That's why we put your health problem in the hands of an experienced professional as quickly as possible. No call centres, automated responses or artificial intelligence. Just the dedicated support of our doctors.

The speed of our service is guaranteed by consultations based on questionnaires drawn up and reviewed by doctors, which allow for individualised screening. If our service is not safe or suitable for you, you will always receive an alternative action plan.
