10-2020 Dr Carpentier is a general doctor, but with an interest in diving-related/ hyperbaric medicine. Appointments not often needed. We needed a prescription; we called up, were told to come right round and within 15 minutes were in his office. After examination, the prescription and useful advice were issued and we were on our way for what seems the standard consultation fee of 3,600 xpf. His office is at the ocean end of Rue Paul Gauguin, right next door to the big Pharmacie du Port, near Papeete marina. SV Airborne Recommended

Multilingual. Walk-in Many cruisers we know use Dr. Prevost in Pape'ete and have come back with great reviews. Not only is he a good physician, personable, and has a great bedside manner, he speaks French and English. He recently moved his practice from the Clinique Paofai to a new location. He has taken over the old veterinary clinic. There is a pharmacy next door: Pharmacie Maeva. To make an appointment, scheduling is now even easier, he has an online booking site. Often times appointments can be booked the same day or the next day. You can still contact his office by phone for an appointment as well: 🌐 doctofenua.pf/doctors/5fc90f4df1dda7004fb47143

10-2018 SV Hedonism We arrived without appointment and he advised that he would see me but I would need to wait a bit so he could see his patients that had appointments. That is fair. We waited about 1 1⁄2 hours. He spent about 30 minutes with me and gave me a requisition for various blood tests. We also made an appointment for the next morning to go over the results. The Lab is the next door over from his office. Cost for this 1st visit was XPF 7000 The lab work was 3990 that included various blood work and urine tests. They also gave me a code and password so I could view the results on-line later in the day. (as they did for later test including the Cat Scan. It even allowed me to download the actual Cat Scan!9-2017 SV Jacaranda Highly recommended

Generalities

Island: Tahiti

All medical staff several cruisers have used have been of a high standard. Consultation visits are currently costed at 3,600 xpf (approx $34 US). In Papeete there are two General Practice physicians across from the Tourist Office on the quay. Dr Andrew Carpe speaks reasonably good English and has specialist training hyperbaric medicine 40 4256 67. Walk-ins are often seen without long waits. Specialists and technical procedures are available at hospital and at two private clinics. The hospital prices appear to be substantially less expensive than the private clinics. For example these charges were incurred at the main hospital: Sonogram of neck (thyroid) --$64.80; Chest Xray --$46.80; Consultation with ENT including upper airway endoscopy -- $55.80 (in US dollars.) Hospital appointments can be a long wait but our experience is walkins are generally seen within two hours. No problem since most cruisers are “time millionaires.” The main Hospital for FP is Hospital du Taaone on Charles de Gaulle ask at the bus station near the Marie if they go past the hopital.
