Home doctor visit – SOS Médecins
Health problems that arise in the middle of the night require a doctor to come to your home immediately to avoid complications. If a member of your family is unwell, contact SOS Médecins without delay: we will send a doctor to your home from nearby.
A doctor at home, whatever your needs
Whatever your health problem, SOS Médecins is here to support you, advise you and help you at any time, wherever you are. When we receive your call, our medical dispatch assistants determine your needs and the level of urgency with you, then put you through to our dispatch doctors for a more in-depth conversation.
At the end of this conversation, SOS Médecins sends a doctor to your home: the specialist you need. The emergency number can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and public holidays.
Prepare for your home doctor’s arrival
The dispatch doctor gives you the most reliable information possible about the patient’s situation. While waiting for your home doctor, gather any documents that may help with the diagnosis: prescriptions, usual medication, children’s health records or any other useful medical document.
