Orange Medical Centre Albufeira

Orange Medical Centre Albufeira is an international medical clinic that has been providing healthcare in the town since 2012. The clinic is multi-lingual, with staff supporting Portuguese, English, Dutch, Spanish, German and French, and it is designed for both local residents and international visitors. It sits close to Albufeira's Old Town, near the bus station, taxi rank, car park and a pharmacy, and the building is fully wheelchair accessible. The clinic covers a wide range of primary healthcare, from routine check-ups to specialist evaluations. This includes Portuguese and Dutch driving licence medicals, cardiology and dermatology assessments, and lab testing for blood, urine, stool and pregnancy. Minor procedures such as Implanon and IUD insertion and removal, stitch removal, INR testing, blood pressure monitoring, ear syringing and smear tests are also carried out on site. For diagnostic imaging and specialist consultations, OMC works closely with Hospital Lusíadas Albufeira (HLA), around 10 minutes away, which covers MRI, CT scans, bone densitometry and other advanced procedures. The clinical team includes Cláudia Carriço, a clinical psychologist with a master's degree from the University of Algarve who supports adolescents, adults and seniors with stress, anxiety, trauma and low self-esteem; Dr. Manuel Alveirinho, who trained in aesthetic medicine in London and Barcelona and offers toxins, fillers, non-surgical rhinoplasty and lip treatments; and Fátima Rocha, a chiropodist with 16 years of experience who specialises in medical pedicure and became a certified trainer in 2024.
