Centro de Saúde de Lagoa Detox and Rehab Services
The Centro de Saúde de Lagoa is the public health centre for the Lagoa municipality in the Algarve, part of the Unidade Local de Saúde do Algarve. It provides general and family medicine, including a reinforcement consultation for people without an assigned family doctor and for visitors, with four branch clinics operating under the centre.
Individual consultations are recorded here, though the centre’s published information focuses on general and family medicine rather than a specific addiction or mental health programme. No particular therapeutic approach is published, so anyone seeking addiction-specific support should ask directly what’s available or how to be referred on.

Where Is Centro de Saúde de Lagoa?
The health centre is at Urbanização dos Vales, Rua do Centro de Saúde, in Lagoa, an Algarve town inland from the Carvoeiro coastline and best known locally for its wine-growing area. The setting is urban, within the town itself rather than on its outskirts.
Faro Airport is the nearest airport, around 40km away and about 35–40 minutes by road. Public transport along the Algarve coast also serves Lagoa. Confirm the centre’s opening hours, including the specific reinforcement-consultation times, before visiting.

How Much Does Treatment at Centro de Saúde de Lagoa Cost?
This is a general public health centre rather than a dedicated addiction treatment service, so typical regional addiction-care figures aren’t a direct match; outpatient-level mental health and addiction support in the wider Algarve area tends to run around €700–€2,300 (£600–£2,000) a month as broader context. As a public facility, general care here is available through Portugal’s national health system at no direct cost to residents, subject to registration and residency.
For anything addiction-specific, ask the centre how a referral to a specialist treatment team would work, and what the reinforcement consultation covers if you don’t have an assigned doctor.

Centro de Saúde de Lagoa Reviews
A review from a patient of this health centre, a family member who has accompanied someone here, or a healthcare professional familiar with its services would be a useful addition for other local residents and visitors.
As a public facility, this centre’s standing rests on Portugal’s national health system rather than a private accreditation mark. If you’re looking for addiction-specific support rather than general medicine, a good question to ask is how the centre handles referral to specialist services.
Doctor only in November
Friendly staff. Parking available. Excellent healthcare service.
They never answer a call.
I went for a vaccination, and it was so natural I didn't even realize I was getting one. The nurse was very gentle.
It's awful, I call and they never answer. I've been waiting for a family doctor for 3 years, another disgrace to the NHS.
Good morning, after 50 attempts over two consecutive days, no one answered the phone, and this is a lack of respect for the users. Thank you.
Schedules never match what's on the National Health Service's (SNS) schedule. There are no warnings about anything.
They don't answer the phone.
Please note that weekend hours (Saturdays and Sundays) have changed to 8 AM to 2 PM.
It is completely unacceptable that a public health facility has the wrong hours published. Someone goes there at 2 PM on a Saturday, because that's the published time, and arrives to find it closed. At the very least,… they should change that!
Lagoa is the best municipality to DIE in, the service is shameful, a year's wait to get an appointment to show test results.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the nursing team who cared for my daughter, Mariana Gonçalves. Thank you very much for your care and professionalism. 🙏
Don't answer, it's not necessary.
The service is a disgrace. You go before noon to get an appointment for the day, and they only give out appointment numbers at 1 PM. You wait and wait, and you had an appointment at 2:45 PM, but at 3:45 PM you hear that… the doctor isn't coming. This is a service that we all pay for. The administrative staff leave much to be desired; they have almost no friendliness or empathy for the patients.
There are no doctors.
Excellent care. We were on vacation and my little one cut his foot in the pool. Sonia (the nurse) took care of him; she was lovely and very patient, especially with our mix of Portuguese and Spanish. She was very… professional and also very compassionate. It's so appreciated when these things happen far from home.
I'm tired of calling and they never answer! It's a disgrace, not to mention the employees who are always in a bad mood.
Friendly security guard at the entrance. Otherwise, nothing positive to report. Incompetent women at reception. Long waiting time, poor service. Constantly ringing phones are ignored. Not customer-friendly at all!
It's amazing how they NEVER answer calls, no matter how hard you try.
Enquanto o vigilante (João) é uma pessoa maravilhosa que ajuda, orienta, dá explicações como deve ser, tem uma atendente, uma tal de Marisa Felipe que não parece ser nada humana! Além de arrogante, ignorante, não faz… questão de entender, não sabe resolver nada e joga pra outras atendentes. Estou gestante com ameaça de aborto, fui ao centro de saúde direto do hospital com encaminhamento do médico pois precisava de uma consulta para pegar uma baixa pois preciso ficar em repouso, não quiseram me atender, essa mesma atendente disse para voltar no dia seguinte no horário X para ter com a médica (consulta do dia). No dia seguinte chego dentro do horário e a mesma diz que não podem me atender, que não tem médico, e que a médica que tive minha consulta na gestação não era médica família que só estava a dar um apoio. Depois pediu para que eu me dirigisse a outro balcão que ela não podia fazer nada, fui e a outra atendente não sabia o que fazer e nem falar. Depois falaram que tinha que resolver no centro de saúde de Carvoeiro, fui lá mesmo não conseguindo andar de dor e com hemorragias, em carvoeiro disseram que não podem fazer nada que isso deve ser tratado em Lagoa. Estão fazendo hora com minha cara ou o que ? Isso é uma palhaçada , que fechem esse lugar ou coloquem pessoas competentes para trabalhar. Depois dizem que grávidas tem prioridade… Péssimos!
