Stitches

I have a few stitches on my scalp but I will be travelling to Greece soon, info relating to clinics needed!?

I need to remove my stitches during the first/second day of my stay in Athens. However I am foreign to the country and I would want to know the price for removing stitches, and is there any clinic near "golden age hotel" (where I'll be staying)?? Many thanks!

1. The procedure is extremely complicated: A. About 500 mt from the hotel is Evagelismos hospital, one of the biggest in Athens B. Walk in the emergency ward, tell the lady there that you want some stitches removed C. Follow her instructions (most likely she will tell you go to the surgeons ward. D. Wait till you get called; this will take a while, since removing stitches is considered a low priority operation. Total cost €0.00 (That's a zero)
2. Kimon gave you a good answer, and by experience, medical wise, I feel fairly safe in Athens. So do not worry. Enjoy Greece without pain. Rgds
