InMedica, a network of medical clinics, has acquired Kaunas Implantology Center (hereinafter – KIC), which provides dental, oral surgery, and dental implant services. This investment marks the expansion of the network in the field of dental services started last year. KIC is the first clinic acquired by the network to provide a wide range of dental services in Kaunas.
“The dental services provided by most InMedica clinics so far have included primary dental care and were intended for basic treatment. Observing the growing demand in the market for secondary level dental services of a wider spectrum, such as oral surgery, implantology, orthodontic treatment, etc., last year we started to develop these services in Vilnius, opening a specialized clinic for patients in the capital city. We are excited that from now on we will be able to offer a wider range of dental services to our clients in Kaunas. We are certain that KIC’s team of professionals, led by some of the most experienced specialists in the market who apply the most modern treatment solutions, will ensure the maximum quality of services,” Kęstutis Broniukaitis, CEO of InMedica, comments on the future merger.
According to the Head of InMedica, K. Broniukaitis, it is planned to maintain and develop the existing brand of KIC, taking into account the sufficiently high awareness of it by the public: “We aim for this investment to motivate established professionals even more to work in KIC. The whole team of managers, who have gained the trust of their employees, will be continuing to work in the clinic, and the changes planned are focused on even greater assurance of the quality of services”.
InMedica has acquired 100 percent of KIC shares from the founders of the clinic m.d., dr. Dainius Razukevičius and Ms. Vaidotė Razukevičienė. KIC provides dentistry, oral surgery and dental implantation, periodontal, orthodontic treatment, dental prosthesis, therapeutic treatment services.
“Quality, continuous improvement, and team cooperation are the most important priorities of KIC clinic. The long-term trust of patients and specialists in the KIC clinic team is particularly important to us. We believe that cooperation with InMedica will help to ensure the continuity of the highest level of service quality, create value for patients, implement innovations and ensure business success,” says Gerda Asipavičienė, Director of KIC.
KIC Clinic was established in 2009. The company currently has 26 employees. Last year the company’s turnover amounted to €1.82 million.
