Apollo Bramwell is particularly strong in cardiac surgery, orthopaedics, and oncology. It was one of the first hospitals in Mauritius to offer robotic-assisted surgery. The hospital attracts specialists who have trained in India, the UK, and France.
Clinique Darné — Floréal The oldest and most established private clinic on the island. Darné is especially popular for maternity and paediatrics. Its central location (near Curepipe) makes it convenient for residents of the plateau towns.
C-Care Network C-Care operates a growing network of private clinics and day-surgery centres across Mauritius, including facilities in Grand Baie, Vacoas, and Flic en Flac. Good for outpatient consultations and minor procedures closer to where you live.

When to seek care abroad
For highly complex procedures — advanced cancer treatment, multi-vessel cardiac bypass, complex neurosurgery, and rare conditions — patients are commonly evacuated to South Africa or India. Your health insurer can advise on the best destination for your specific case.
