As mentioned in Health Insurance section one has to buy a Sanitaria Nazionale to get a general practitioner service. When you go to Via Stock n.2 to get your insurance card you will be assigned a doctor. In fact you have right to choose one, just be careful since all italian doctors are not english speakers and ones who are can be poor. People in the office kindly offers non-italians a choice of english speaking doctors according to their experience, simply to make sure you can call doctors and try to speak.
Every doctor may have different working hours and it is usually around 4 hours a day. You should call them to make sure and get an informal appointment. However, many people just go to doctors office and wait there till patients in the queue are finished.

If the problem is on top of his/her head you will be sent to a specialist with a red prescription which is also needed to get medicine if prescribed.
