When in Rome... Get a UTI? My Bizarre Twist of Vacation Fate

By Christine
July, 5 2024

I was in Rome, preparing for what was supposed to be an easy final evening before my flight, when I felt it—the unmistakable discomfort of a urinary tract infection (UTI). My heart sank. Where would I even find a UTI doctor in Rome? Would it cost me a fortune? The clock was ticking, and my mind was racing. I knew I needed treatment fast, but I had no idea where to start.

I wandered over to the nearest pharmacy, hoping they’d have something for the pain, maybe some antibiotics. But a sinking feeling grew as I approached the counter. Would they even give me UTI medicine, or just the usual home remedies that might help prevent one, but certainly wouldn’t treat a UTI once it had started? I could already imagine myself sitting through my 10-hour flight in complete agony if I didn’t act quickly.

The pharmacist confirmed my fears: no over-the-counter antibiotics for a UTI, just painkillers or cranberry juice that wouldn’t fix the problem. That’s when I panicked. Should I just deal with the discomfort and hope it didn’t get worse? The idea of facing the long journey ahead like this was unbearable. Then, as if sensing my desperation, I googled a UTI clinic in Rome. It offered an online service, and suddenly, there was a sliver of hope.

I booked a video appointment with a UTI doctor in Rome through Doctorsa,  within minutes, not knowing what to expect or how much it would cost. I was nervous, filled with doubts about whether this would actually help. But to my surprise, the doctor was thorough and reassuring, asking all the right questions about my symptoms and allergies. In just 10 minutes, I had a prescription for UTI treatment, and I managed to get the antibiotics from the pharmacy before it closed.

The relief was instant. The doctor was based in Rome and even offered to see me in person if that would make me feel more comfortable, but I didn’t feel it was necessary. I sat at the airport the next day, pain-free and incredibly grateful for having discovered how to get antibiotics for a UTI without seeing a doctor in person. If you ever find yourself wondering how to handle a UTI in a foreign country, trust me—there is a way. And sometimes, it’s easier than you think.

Your questions answered

You don’t need to go to a provider’s office to get antibiotics for a urinary tract infection (UTI). Instead, you can consult with a provider online from the comfort of your home, which may allow you to begin treatment more quickly if deemed appropriate. Doctorsa offers online consultations for UTI prescriptions starting at just $20.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs), especially in women, usually happen when bacteria from the rectal area make their way up through the urethra into the bladder. This is mainly because the rectal area is so close to the urinary tract. Things like wiping the wrong way (back to front instead of front to back), having sex, or even just the way someone’s body is structured can allow bacteria to travel and cause an infection in the bladder.

Yes, as soon as you submit your request, it’s immediately received by the doctors who are online at that moment. Whether it’s late at night, early on a Sunday morning, on New Year’s Eve, or even during a bank holiday in Rome for the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul on June 29th, there’s always someone available to help. When you get an appointment option, it means a doctor has seen your request and is ready to assist you.

Open the intake form and choose one of the following options:

  • Urgent Care: For immediate treatment of your Bacterial Vaginosis via virtual care.
  • Set Up an Appointment: To schedule a same-day or future appointment.
  • Prescription Refill: Use this option if you have lost or forgotten your medication.

Next, select how you would like to receive appointment offers from doctors.
We recommend using WhatsApp as it is faster and more reliable. You will quickly receive various visit options. Choose the one that suits you best and proceed to online payment.

Video visits are browser-based, so no apps are needed. Simply click the link you receive to start your video visit in your browser.

After the consultation, expect to receive an invoice and an e-prescription via email. You can show or print the e-prescription to purchase medication at the pharmacy of your choice.

Following the consultation, the doctor will either email the e-prescription to you or send it via WhatsApp. You can then either print it out or show it directly to the pharmacist when purchasing the medication.

It’s important to understand that doctors must responsibly evaluate each case individually. They can’t simply prescribe medication solely based on a patient’s request or a recommendation from another doctor without confirming that it’s suitable for the patient’s specific condition.

The total cost may differ based on the providers. Each one competes for your request, offering a fair price tailored to your needs. On average, an online doctor visit costs $25. Prices for in-person appointments, specialists, and lab work vary by city. You can send a request to learn more—there’s no commitment to book, and you can select your provider.

Please note that the visit fee doesn’t cover medication expenses, but common antibiotics are quite affordable in Europe. The cost of antibiotic treatment typically ranges from 5 to 15 euros approximately.

You can message your physician with follow-up questions at no additional cost for up to 7 days after the video visit.

Yes, it is possible to pay with insurance. During the checkout process, you’ll be prompted to provide your insurance carrier information. Alongside this, you’ll also need to enter your payment details. The consultation cost will be temporarily withheld until our team verifies your coverage with your insurance provider. Once confirmed, the reserved amount will be released. However, if we’re unable to confirm your coverage or if your insurance doesn’t cover the payment, the reserved amount will be charged. In such cases, you’ll promptly receive an invoice, enabling you to claim a refund directly.
