For sure the clinics where I work - the Family Medical Centres in Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo offer this service - tel 289 398 411.
In CVO the German clinic above Smilers used to have the facility but I have no current information.

No - just phone for an appointment explaining your requirements.

Take your credit/debit card/cash/cheque - this is Portugal after all :roll:

Just a thought - have you been to the Centro de Saude where it should be done under the local NHS ?

No, OH has only just gone onto Warfarin and will need the test while we are over in August for 3 weeks.
