Curepipe's cool, misty climate brings its own ailments, and our doctors come to you in Forest Side, Floréal, Eau Coulée and Robinson, day or night. Trusted by 80,000+ families since 2016.
Curepipe sits higher than any other town in Mauritius, on the central plateau of Plaines Wilhems, and anyone who lives here knows the routine: a jacket by the door, an umbrella in the car and mist rolling over Trou aux Cerfs by late afternoon. The town has kept much of its old character, with large family houses set in leafy gardens, quiet residential lanes around Floréal and Forest Side, and a busy centre near the town hall. Many households include grandparents who have lived here all their lives, while every morning students head off to Royal College Curepipe and the town's other colleges.
That mix of cool, damp weather and a large older population is exactly why a home visit makes sense in Curepipe. When someone is coughing through a wet winter night, or an elderly parent finds the steps of an old house hard to manage, going out in the rain to queue for a consultation is the last thing they need. Médecin à Domicile sends a doctor to your door instead, at any hour, ready to examine and treat on the spot. Our doctors speak English, French and Mauritian Creole, so every generation in the family can explain how they feel in the language they are most comfortable with.
Our doctors work across the whole of Curepipe and its surroundings: the town centre around the town hall, Forest Side, Floréal, Eau Coulée, Curepipe Road, Wooton, Robinson and La Brasserie. Whether you live in a bungalow on a quiet side street, a flat above a shop in the centre or a family house tucked away near the Botanical Garden, we come to the address you give us. A GPS-tracked fleet of 18 medical vehicles lets the coordinator send the nearest available doctor, and on average our doctors arrive within the hour, as they do in most regions. When you call, you are given a realistic estimate that takes account of traffic and the weather on the plateau that evening.
Curepipe is known as the coolest and rainiest town on the island, and the climate leaves its mark. Persistent humidity and chilly evenings go hand in hand with colds, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis and asthma flare-ups, while older residents often feel rheumatic pain more sharply when the damp sets in. A home doctor can listen to the chest, check breathing, bring down a fever, review the medication you already take and, where needed, give an injection or IV treatment without you leaving a warm bed. Flu vaccination at home is also a sensible precaution for anyone who lives up here, from schoolchildren to grandparents.
Family life in Curepipe often means three generations under one roof, and we look after all of them. Adults managing diabetes or high blood pressure can switch to monthly visits at home, with blood collection and an ECG done in the living room instead of a day lost to travel and queues. Children are seen in their own bed when a fever spikes at night or an earache will not settle, and parents get clear advice on what to watch for next. Minor injuries, wounds that need cleaning or sutures, and IV or IM treatments are also handled on the spot, so many problems can be dealt with without anyone leaving the house.
Some older residents of Curepipe live alone in houses that have grown too big for them, or rely on a carer while their children work elsewhere on the island or abroad. A doctor who visits regularly can notice changes early and adjust follow-up before small problems become serious. When daily life gets harder, we can arrange carers at home, and our palliative care service supports patients and their families with comfort and dignity. At the other end of the age range, students at Royal College Curepipe and the town's other colleges, and young families who have just moved into their first home here, can call us for a quick consultation or for advice by telemedicine.
Some situations cannot wait for any home visit. Chest pain, signs of a stroke such as a drooping face or sudden weakness on one side, severe difficulty breathing, major trauma or a person who cannot be woken all mean calling SAMU on 114 first. The nearest public hospitals for Curepipe are Victoria Hospital in Candos and Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital in Rose Belle. Médecin à Domicile also runs an ambulance service and can arrange a transfer to a hospital or clinic when a patient needs one. For everything else, from a high temperature or a heavy chest infection to a deep cut, back pain or repeated vomiting, a home doctor can usually take care of you where you are.

Médecin à Domicile has been sending doctors to people’s homes since 2016 and now looks after 80,000+ families. Our 20+ in-house doctors, all registered with the Medical Council of Mauritius, visit patients across Curepipe, from the old residential streets of Floréal to Forest Side and Eau Coulée, by day and by night, every day of the year.
In Curepipe, the weather often finds its way into the consultation: a chest infection that will not clear, a child with a fever on a wet school night, sinus pain, or a grandparent whose joints ache in the damp. Our doctors diagnose and treat all of this at home, as well as stomach upsets, urinary infections, minor injuries and chronic flare-ups.
Beyond the consultation, our team brings a full range of care to Curepipe homes: blood collection and ECG at home, IV and IM treatments, Hydravit IV therapy, wound care and sutures, flu vaccination and telemedicine. For families caring for an older relative, we also provide elderly home visits, carers at home, palliative care and medical escort.
Getting a doctor to your Curepipe address takes one call to 86121. The coordinator asks about the patient, sends the nearest available doctor from our GPS-tracked fleet and gives you an arrival estimate, so you can stay warm until the doorbell rings.

Practical answers for Curepipe residents and their families: what a home visit costs, how quickly a doctor reaches your neighbourhood, what can be treated at home in the damp season and when to go straight to hospital.
A home visit in Curepipe costs Rs 3 000 during the day, from 08:00 to 18:00, and Rs 4 000 at night, from 18:00 to 08:00. The service runs 24/7, weekends and public holidays included. Patients insured with Eagle Insurance or Jubilee Insurance can have a cashless visit. With any other insurer, you settle the visit on the day and claim it back using the invoice and medical report our doctor provides.
Our coordinator dispatches the nearest available doctor, located through our GPS-tracked fleet of 18 medical vehicles. In most regions, Curepipe included, a doctor reaches patients within the hour on average. Heavy rain, fog on the plateau or peak-hour traffic can add time, which is why you are given a realistic estimate on the phone. You can also follow the doctor’s progress on our tracking app.
We visit the Curepipe town centre and the streets around the town hall, as well as Forest Side, Floréal, Eau Coulée, Curepipe Road, Wooton, Robinson and La Brasserie. That includes houses, flats and family homes of every size. If you live just outside these neighbourhoods, call 86121 anyway: Médecin à Domicile covers the whole of Mauritius, and the coordinator will tell you how soon a doctor can be with you.
Yes. Colds, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis and asthma flare-ups are typical of Curepipe’s cool, humid climate, and a doctor can assess them at home by listening to the chest, checking temperature and breathing, and prescribing the right treatment. If needed, an injection or IV treatment can be given on the spot, and flu vaccination at home is available for the whole family. If breathing becomes severely difficult, call SAMU on 114 straight away.
Call SAMU on 114 first for any life-threatening situation: chest pain, signs of a stroke, severe breathing difficulty, major trauma or loss of consciousness. The nearest public hospitals are Victoria Hospital in Candos and Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital in Rose Belle. Médecin à Domicile also operates an ambulance service and can arrange transfer to a hospital or clinic. A home doctor does not replace a hospital in a real emergency, but covers the many urgent problems that are not life-threatening.
Yes. Many older people in Curepipe wish to stay in the family home, and we can help make that possible. Our doctors carry out regular elderly home visits and monthly follow-up of conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure, with blood tests and ECG at home. We can also arrange carers at home and provide palliative care focused on comfort, dignity and support for the whole family. Call 86121 to talk through your parent’s needs with our coordinator.
