Mauritius has a well-developed healthcare network that combines government hospitals, private hospitals, specialist centres, clinics, diagnostic facilities and community healthcare institutions. The country’s public health system provides hospital services through regional and district institutions, while private healthcare providers offer another route to specialist consultations, diagnostics, surgery, maternity care and other medical services.
The Ministry of Health and Wellness identifies five regional public hospitals — Dr A. Gaffoor Jeetoo Hospital, Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam National Hospital, Sir Anerood Jugnauth Hospital, Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital and Victoria Hospital — together with district and specialised hospitals. Emergency cases are handled through hospital Accident and Emergency departments and the SAMU emergency service.
The private healthcare sector includes established institutions such as C-Care Wellkin, C-Care Darné, Clinique du Nord, City Clinic and other private medical facilities. Newer hospital developments, including Artemis Hospitals Mauritius, are also expanding the range of private healthcare services available on the island.
This guide has been prepared to help readers understand the differences between major hospitals and healthcare institutions in Mauritius. It covers location, hospital type, major treatment areas, doctors and specialist teams, emergency arrangements, facilities, contact information, website links, Google Maps/GMB information and general guidance about charges.
The editorial scores in this article are Mauritian Ranker’s own editorial scores. They are not official government ratings, medical accreditation scores, patient-outcome scores or rankings issued by the hospitals themselves.
Because healthcare is personal and medical needs differ considerably, this guide should be used for research and comparison rather than as a substitute for advice from a qualified medical professional.

The hospital provides specialist consultations covering multiple areas of medicine and surgery. Its specialist network includes consultants working in fields such as endocrinology, urology, paediatrics, nephrology, cardiology and other disciplines.

Charges
Private hospital charges depend heavily on the doctor, procedure, room category, diagnostic tests, medicines, implants and length of stay.

Public vs Private Hospitals in Mauritius
One of the first decisions people face when looking for healthcare in Mauritius is whether to use a public or private facility.
Both systems have an important role.
Public Hospitals
Public hospitals are operated within the government healthcare system.
The Ministry of Health identifies five regional hospitals supported by district and specialised institutions.
Public hospitals are particularly important for:
- Emergency healthcare
- Regional hospital services
- Specialist public services
- Maternity care
- Surgery
- Chronic disease management
- Diagnostics
- Inpatient treatment
- Public health programmes
The main consideration for patients is often the specific service required and the hospital serving their region.
Private Hospitals
Private hospitals provide another route to healthcare.
Private facilities generally operate under different billing structures and may provide appointments, specialist consultations, diagnostics and planned procedures through private arrangements.
Private hospitals in this list include:
- C-Care Wellkin
- C-Care Darné
- Clinique du Nord
- City Clinic
- Artemis Curepipe
- Clinique Muller
Private hospitals publish different contact, appointment and billing systems.
Hospital Charges in Mauritius
Hospital charges are one of the most difficult areas to summarise with a single number.
A consultation may have one fee, while the final cost of a hospital procedure can include:
- Doctor’s consultation
- Specialist fees
- Hospital admission
- Room charges
- Operating theatre
- Anaesthesia
- Medicines
- Medical consumables
- Diagnostic tests
- Imaging
- Laboratory work
- Nursing
- Medical devices or implants
- Length of stay
- Follow-up consultations
This is why the article does not present unsupported fixed prices such as “a consultation always costs MUR X.”
C-Care’s own billing information explains that some consumables and medical materials can be billed separately because the type and quantity required vary from patient to patient.
For planned private treatment, readers should ask the hospital for a written cost estimate.
Artemis, for example, provides a request-a-cost-estimate facility on its website.
How to Check Hospital Charges Before Treatment
Before a planned procedure, patients can ask:
- What is the doctor’s consultation fee?
- What is the hospital admission charge?
- What room options are available?
- Is the surgeon’s fee included?
- Is anaesthesia included?
- Are laboratory and imaging tests included?
- Are medicines included?
- Are implants or medical devices billed separately?
- Does health insurance cover the procedure?
- Is a deposit required?
- What happens if the hospital stay becomes longer than expected?
- Can the hospital provide a written estimate?
Asking these questions before admission can make the financial side of treatment easier to understand.
Hospital Timings and Emergency Services
Hospital opening hours can be confusing because a hospital may operate 24 hours while individual departments operate only during certain hours.
For example, an emergency department may be available 24/7 while:
- OPD operates during daytime hours
- Billing has separate hours
- Pharmacy has separate hours
- Radiology may have its own schedule
- Visiting hours may be restricted
- Specialist consultations require appointments
Artemis Curepipe explicitly publishes different schedules for emergency, OPD, pharmacy, laboratory and radiology services.
C-Care also publishes separate schedules for admissions, billing and visiting.
For this reason, readers should always check the relevant department before travelling.
Medical Information Disclaimer
This article is intended for general informational purposes.
It does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment recommendations or emergency medical advice.
Hospital services, doctors, prices, opening hours, emergency arrangements and facilities can change.
Readers should confirm important information directly with the hospital or the Ministry of Health and Wellness before visiting.
If you have a medical emergency, seek immediate emergency medical assistance rather than relying on an online ranking or article.
Final Thoughts
Mauritius has a healthcare system that combines regional public hospitals, specialist government facilities and an expanding private healthcare sector.
Institutions such as C-Care Wellkin and C-Care Darné provide broad private hospital services and specialist care. Clinique du Nord and City Clinic provide additional private healthcare options in the north and Port Louis, while Artemis Curepipe represents newer private hospital infrastructure. Public hospitals such as SSR National Hospital, Jawaharlal Nehru Hospital and Victoria Hospital remain important parts of the government healthcare network.
The most suitable hospital depends on the medical service required, location, emergency needs, specialist availability, treatment plan and financial arrangements.
For planned treatment, patients should compare the relevant specialist department rather than relying only on an overall hospital score. Asking for a treatment estimate, confirming insurance coverage, checking the current doctor schedule and understanding admission arrangements can make the process clearer.
For urgent or emergency situations, immediate access to appropriate medical care should take priority over online rankings.
This guide is therefore best used as a starting point for research. Hospital websites, the Ministry of Health and direct communication with medical institutions should be used to confirm the latest information before making healthcare decisions.
