A stomach bug in Pereybere, a feverish child in Goodlands or a sea-urchin sting at Cap Malheureux: our doctors come to you anywhere around Grand Baie, day and night, and 80,000+ families have already called on us.
Grand Baie never really sleeps. By day the bay fills with catamarans heading out to Coin de Mire and Île Plate, the coastal road hums with shops and restaurants, and Pereybere beach is packed with swimmers. After dark, the bars and clubs take over. Behind the lively seafront lives a large community of expats and retirees who have made the north their home, alongside Mauritian families in Grand Gaube, Goodlands and the villages inland. People come here to unwind, which is exactly why falling ill in Grand Baie feels so disruptive, whether you live here all year or arrived last week.
A home visit makes particular sense in Grand Baie. Many illnesses here strike in the evening, after a long day in the sun or a meal out, just when most practices have closed their doors. Holidaymakers rarely know where to go, and residents would rather not drive to hospital for a fever or a bad stomach. With Médecin à Domicile, one call to 86121 sends the nearest available doctor from our GPS-tracked fleet to your house, apartment or hotel room. Our doctors speak English, French and Mauritian Creole, and they are on duty 24/7, including weekends and public holidays.
Our doctors visit patients throughout the northern tip of the island: Grand Baie village and the coastal road, Pereybere, Pointe aux Canonniers, Cap Malheureux with its red-roofed chapel, Bain Boeuf, Grand Gaube, Calodyne, Petit Raffray and the market village of Goodlands. Whether you are in a seafront apartment, a family house down a quiet lane or a guesthouse a few streets back from the beach, the coordinator pinpoints your address and dispatches the nearest available doctor. For most addresses in this part of the north, the average arrival time is within the hour, and you are always given a realistic estimate when you call.
Grand Baie's lifestyle shapes the calls we receive. Food-related illness and holiday gastroenteritis come first, often after a buffet, a seafood dinner or a quick bite from a roadside stall. Long hours on the beach lead to sunburn and heat exhaustion, and a choppy catamaran crossing to the northern islets can leave visitors seasick for the rest of the day. Reef walks bring coral cuts and sea-urchin spines that need careful cleaning and dressing. Many of these problems flare up at night, once local surgeries have closed. The doctor examines you, treats dehydration with IV fluids where appropriate, takes care of the wound and leaves you with clear instructions.
Plenty of people live in the north all year round: retirees who settled by the sea, expat families, and Mauritian households in Grand Gaube, Goodlands, Petit Raffray and Calodyne. For them, we offer monthly visits and follow-up for diabetes and high blood pressure, blood collection at home, ECG at home and the flu vaccine, without a trip into town. Older patients who no longer drive are examined in their own armchair, and children with a fever, ear pain or a chesty cough are seen at home instead of in a crowded waiting room. Patients insured with Eagle Insurance or Jubilee Insurance have nothing to pay at the door.
Pereybere, Pointe aux Canonniers and Cap Malheureux are full of villas, guesthouses and hotels, and being ill far from home is unsettling, especially when you do not know the island. You do not have to look for a clinic or arrange transport: the doctor comes to your room or holiday rental, examines you, prescribes what you need and explains everything in English or French. At the end of the visit you receive an official medical report and invoice, which international travel insurers accept for your claim. If someone in your group falls ill late at night, simply call 86121 from where you are staying; the line is answered 24/7.
Some situations cannot wait for a home visit. Chest pain, signs of a stroke such as a drooping face or slurred speech, severe difficulty breathing, a major injury or loss of consciousness call for SAMU on 114 straight away. The nearest public hospital for Grand Baie is SSRN Hospital in Pamplemousses. Médecin à Domicile also runs its own ambulance service and can arrange a transfer to a hospital or clinic when needed. For everything else, such as a high fever, repeated vomiting, a cut that needs sutures, an infected wound or a painful ear after swimming, a home doctor is usually the quicker and calmer option.

Médecin à Domicile has been bringing doctors to patients’ doors since 2016. In Grand Baie and the villages around it, our in-house team of 20+ doctors, all of them on the Medical Council of Mauritius register, treats residents, retirees and visitors at home, in villas and in hotel rooms, around the clock and in English, French or Creole.
From a toddler with a high temperature to a grandparent with a chest infection, our doctors treat patients of every age across the bay, Pereybere and Grand Gaube. Typical visits in this part of the north include gastro, sunburn and heat exhaustion, seasickness, ear and skin infections, coral cuts and urinary infections.
Besides consultations, our doctors bring a range of treatments to your door in the north: IV and IM injections, Hydravit IV therapy, wound care and sutures, blood collection, ECG at home, flu vaccination and telemedicine. Residents can also arrange carers at home, palliative care or a medical escort.
Whether you are in a beach apartment in Pereybere or a family home in Goodlands, the process is the same: call 86121, describe the problem, and our coordinator sends the closest doctor to examine and treat you on the spot.

Practical answers for people living in or visiting Grand Baie: what a home visit costs, how long you wait for a doctor, which villages we cover and what to do in a real emergency.
A home visit costs Rs 3 000 in the daytime (08:00–18:00) and Rs 4 000 for a night visit (18:00–08:00). These are our standard rates in Grand Baie and the surrounding villages, whether the doctor comes to a house in Goodlands, an apartment in Pereybere or a hotel in Pointe aux Canonniers. Patients insured with Eagle Insurance or Jubilee Insurance can have a cashless visit; with other insurers you pay and then claim reimbursement.
Our coordination centre runs 24/7 and uses a GPS-tracked fleet of 18 medical vehicles to send the nearest available doctor. In Grand Baie and most of the north, the average arrival time is within the hour, day or night. The exact time depends on where the doctors are at that moment, so the coordinator gives you a realistic estimate on the phone, and you can follow the doctor’s progress in our app.
We cover Grand Baie village and the coastal road, Pereybere, Pointe aux Canonniers, Cap Malheureux, Bain Boeuf, Grand Gaube, Calodyne, Petit Raffray and Goodlands. That includes private homes, apartments, villas, guesthouses, hotels and workplaces. If you are unsure whether your address is covered, call 86121: the coordinator will confirm and give you an arrival estimate straight away.
Yes. After a catamaran day to Coin de Mire or Île Plate, some visitors come back with persistent nausea, sunburn, dehydration or sea-urchin spines in the foot. The doctor can see you at your hotel, villa or guesthouse, assess you, give medication or IV fluids if you are dehydrated, clean and dress the wound and explain what to watch for. You receive a medical report and invoice for your travel insurer.
If someone has chest pain, signs of a stroke, severe difficulty breathing, a major injury or has lost consciousness, call SAMU on 114 immediately. The nearest public hospital for Grand Baie is SSRN Hospital in Pamplemousses. Médecin à Domicile also operates an ambulance service and can organise a transfer to a hospital or clinic. Our home doctors are there for urgent but non-life-threatening problems, not as a replacement for emergency services.
Yes. Vomiting and diarrhoea after a restaurant meal or a party can start at any hour, and our line in Grand Baie is staffed 24/7. The night rate of Rs 4 000 applies from 18:00 to 08:00. The doctor checks how dehydrated you are, gives medication by injection or an IV drip if needed, and explains what to eat and drink. If the doctor feels you need hospital care, a transfer can be arranged.
