About Dr. Arthur Yanez — Your Private Doctor in Rome
A licensed Italian physician with clinical experience across internal medicine, telemedicine, and nutritional science — dedicated to providing clear, professional medical care for international patients in Rome and across Italy.
Dr. Arthur Sarmento Pinto Yanez
General Practitioner & Private MD · Rome, Italy
I am a medical doctor licensed in Italy, trained at the University of Bologna with clinical rotations at Ospedale Sant’Orsola, Ospedale Maggiore, and Ospedale Bellaria. My broader clinical experience includes Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli in Rome, as well as internal medicine, telemedicine, and elderly care.
Before medicine, I spent over a decade as a business partner and project manager in Brazil and internationally, which shaped my ability to communicate clearly, manage complex situations calmly, and put patients at ease — especially those navigating a foreign healthcare system for the first time.
My practice focuses on tourists, expats, and international patients who need fast, reliable medical care in English while in Italy — without the barriers of language, bureaucracy, or long wait times.

My approach
Why I started this practice
Living and working as a foreigner in Italy taught me first-hand how disorienting it can be to need medical care in a country where you don’t speak the language, don’t know the system, and don’t know who to trust.
I started Rome Private Doctor to solve exactly that problem — to be the English-speaking doctor I would have wanted when I first arrived in Italy. Fast, clear, honest, and accessible from wherever you are.
Whether you’re a tourist with a sudden illness, an expat needing a prescription refilled, or someone who just wants a second opinion in a language they understand — I’m here to help.
Clear communication
Medical consultations entirely in English — no misunderstandings, no language barriers.
Fast response
All requests reviewed personally and answered within the hour — because when you’re unwell, waiting isn’t an option.
Patient-centered care
Practical, honest medical advice without over-prescribing — focused on what you actually need.
Professional & discreet
Fully compliant with Italian medical regulations and patient privacy laws.
