InMedica Group, the largest private medical services network in Lithuania, managed by INVL Baltic Sea Growth Fund, the leading private equity fund in the Baltic States, is continuing to expand – this November it acquired Tilžės G. Bendrosios Praktikos Gydytojų Kabinetas (Tilžės G. BPG), a general practitioners’ clinic in Šiauliai and one of that city’s oldest private medical establishments. It is the group’s sixth family medical centre in Šiauliai and its 66th overall. In total, InMedica Group now comprises 84 clinics.
“We are steadily growing the network of clinics in order to be closer to patients and improve access to medical services all over the country. The Tilžės G. BPG clinic has been operating in Šiauliai for 24 years and in that time has built a strong bond with patients. Our investment will make it possible to further enhance the clinic’s work, ensuring high standards and a broader range of services,” says Kęstutis Broniukaitis, the CEO of InMedica Group.
Tilžės G. BPG has earned patients’ trust with its team of 37 employees at present: family doctors, medical specialists, dentists, oral hygienists, nurses and other medical staff, all of whom attend to the health of the medical centre’s 7,600 patients.
“Our aim is to maintain the highest quality of service and strong focus on continuous professional development. We highly value the expertise that the team has developed over many years and will continue to nurture that,” Broniukaitis notes.
More possibilities for patients
The integration of the Tilžės G. BPG clinic into the InMedica Group’s network will allow patients to access an even wider range of healthcare services. For example, when they need varied types of specialists –cardiologists, endocrinologists, neurologists, gastroenterologists, and others – they will be able to turn to InMedica Group’s nearby multi-profile Kardiolita clinics.
“Having a concentration of different types of medical services in one group and in the same city makes it possible to ensure an uninterrupted treatment process and give patients the chance to entrust their health care to very highly qualified specialists,” InMedica Group’s CEO explains.
According to the Tilžės G. BPG clinic’s director, Vytautas Brazauskas, the medical centre has always focused on the quality of the services that area provided, giving special attention to patients’ wellbeing.
“Together with a highly experienced professional team, we have earned patients’ trust by providing quality services, so it was important for us to find a partner who shares the same values. Joining InMedica Group will give the team a chance to grow and will let patients benefit from a wider range of treatment possibilities. I’m confident that the traditions of many years will be continued and strengthened,” Brazauskas emphasises.
