According to a 2024 survey conducted in Spain, more than seven in every ten respondents agreed that the health care system was overstretched, while the same share stated that waiting times to get an appointment with doctors were too long. Similarly, nearly one-third claimed it was difficult to get an appointment with a doctor in the local area. However, around 59 percent of interviewees trusted the Spanish health care system to provide proper treatment. In 2021, public spending on health represented approximately 7.3 percent of the Spanish gross domestic product (GDP).
