The Limassol General Hospital provides health care services by specialist doctors and other medical professionals (e.g. community nursing, physiotherapy), as well as health care in case of accidents and emergencies. At the same time, it offers inpatient care by specialised medical and paramedical staff.

The duration of the visit will be 10 minutes, one close relative per patient per day, between 17:00 – 19:00 and there will be a gap of 10 minutes between appointments, so as to avoid overcrowding between outgoing and incoming visitors.

Upon submission of a referral, the registration fee for a visit to a Specialist Doctor is €6. If there is no referral or it has expired, the registration fee is €25.
For GHS non-beneficiaries, the visit to a Specialist costs €30.
For asylum seekers or for persons whose registration with GHS is pending, it is recommended to present the health card of the Ministry of Health. In this case, the registration fee is €3. Holders of a card that ends in -YY, along with the brown hospital card, after consultation with the Accounting Office, are not charged.
An appointment can be arranged by contacting the secretary of each specialty or by selecting the doctor of your choice from the doctor search option and book an appointment.
You can book a follow-up appointment after consulting your doctor and the secretary of each specialty.
You can visit the following medical specialties:
Daily admissions
Patients, in consultation with the Specialist Doctor from whom they receive treatment, shall submit a referral for Inpatient Care before their admission to the clinic.
The usual specialties with daily patients are the following:
Scheduled admissions
For scheduled admissions, either for a surgery or for treatment that lasts more than a day, the patient must present an inpatient (one-time) referral. The consultation takes place between the doctor and the patient or the secretary of the specific specialty. The registration should take place at the Admissions desk. There, the patient will receive their medical file and be directed to the appropriate ward/department.
For example, in the Surgery Clinic:
Emergency Admissions
For emergencies, admissions take place:
The visit to a Specialist Doctor is made after an appointment with the corresponding secretary. The secretary will inform the patient about what he/she needs to provide on the day of his/her appointment (referral, test results, tests, etc.). On the day of the appointment, the patient must first go to the Outpatients Registration Department to register and then go to the Specialist Doctor for his appointment.
In case the patient is a GHS Beneficiary but has not yet registered with a Personal Doctor, he/she can visit the Information Department on the Ground Floor (Central Entrance) to register with a Personal Doctor of the Health Centers of the Old Hospital and Linopetra, so that he/she can benefit from GHS.
For scheduled admissions, either for a surgery or for treatment that lasts for more than a day, the patient must present an inpatient (one-time) referral. The consultation takes place between the doctor and the patient. The registration should be done at the Admission desk. There the patient will receive his/her medical file and will then be directed to the appropriate department/ward.
