If you're searching for a Spanish-speaking doctor in Los Angeles, the honest answer is this: Doctor Matt connects you by video with a Colombian physician who speaks Spanish natively. You're seen from wherever you happen to be in Los Angeles — and anywhere in the United States — right from your phone or computer, with no app to download and no need to leave the house. This is not a brick-and-mortar office in Los Angeles; it's a video visit. The consultation is a flat $88 USD, paid once, and we see you with or without insurance. You can book your visit online here and pick the time that works for you.
Serving LA's Spanish-speaking community by video
Los Angeles is one of the most Spanish-speaking cities in the country, and the video service was built with that in mind. On the Eastside — East Los Angeles, Boyle Heights, and the working-class cities south of downtown like Huntington Park, South Gate, Bell Gardens, Maywood, and Cudahy — Spanish is the everyday language of the shops along César Chávez Avenue, the mariachis gathered at Mariachi Plaza, and the stores lining Pacific Boulevard. The community here is largely Mexican, but LA also holds some of the largest Salvadoran and Guatemalan populations in the U.S., concentrated around Pico-Union, Westlake, and MacArthur Park, alongside Central and South American families spread across the county and out into the San Fernando Valley. A video visit meets all of these neighborhoods the same way — through a screen, in Spanish.
For a lot of these families, seeing a doctor means taking time off work, driving through traffic on the 5, the 10, or the 101, hunting for parking, and sitting in a waiting room. A video visit takes all of that off your plate: you're seen from home, with no commute and no waiting room, in your own language. And when the doctor recommends an over-the-counter (OTC) product, you pick it up at the CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart that's already around the corner in nearly every LA neighborhood.
How the video visit works
The process is simple and takes only a few minutes:
- Pay online: make the single $88 USD payment through the secure Bold platform.
- Pick a date and time: the calendar shows available slots in your own time zone.
- Connect by video: join from your phone or computer — nothing to install.
- Get your plan: the doctor reviews your case and gives you clear guidance.
We're available every day, weekends included, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Colombia time (GMT-5). Keep in mind that Los Angeles runs two hours behind Colombia, so you have a wide window to connect.
What the visit is for
This visit is meant for minor complaints that don't call for an emergency room: colds, cough, sore throat, upset stomach, mild allergies, questions about common symptoms, and general health guidance. The doctor can recommend over-the-counter (OTC) medicines you'll find at pharmacies like CVS, Walgreens, or Walmart in your neighborhood, and walk you through how to care for yourself at home.
We want to be clear: we don't promise controlled-substance prescriptions or prescriptions valid at U.S. pharmacies. If your case needs a prescription or in-person care, the doctor will say so plainly so you know the next step to take.
Honest about what we are
We'd rather be upfront than oversell. Doctor Matt is a video service, not a physical clinic in Los Angeles — there's no office you can walk into here. Your visit is with a Colombian physician who speaks Spanish natively; our doctors are licensed in Colombia and are not licensed in any U.S. state, and we do not issue prescriptions valid at U.S. pharmacies. Doctor Matt is a brand of Grupo Alivmed S.A.S., an IPS authorized by Colombia's Ministry of Health. What you get is real, private, face-to-face guidance in your own language for minor complaints — at a flat price, from wherever you are in LA.
Why a doctor in your own language matters
Describing how you feel is hard enough without translating it. With a Spanish-speaking doctor you can explain your symptoms in your own words, mention the home remedies you already tried, and say what's actually worrying you — no language barrier in the middle. That kind of clarity makes the visit more accurate, more human, and more useful for your health, whether you're calling in from Boyle Heights, Huntington Park, or the far end of the San Fernando Valley.
Emergencies: when to call 911
Telemedicine does not replace emergency care. If you have chest pain, trouble breathing, heavy bleeding, or signs of a stroke, call 911 immediately or go to the nearest emergency room. For everything else in the minor-complaint range, we're here to help by video.
