Athens Medical Group (AMG), including Athens Medical Center, joins Clinerion’s hospitals network, and expands Clinerion’s footprint in Western Europe. Their Medsana Bucharest Medical Center in Romania will also join Clinerion’s Patient Network Explorer platform.
Athens Medical Group (AMG) runs eight ultramodern hospitals in Greece, seven in the Athens Metropolitan Area and one in Thessaloniki, Northern Greece. AMG cooperates with an extensive nationwide network of 390 diagnostic centers, eight haemodialysis units and a growing network of official associate centers throughout Greece. A multinational company, it operates Medsana clinics, four modern and specialized diagnostic centers in Romania, which also have presence, through affiliate companies, in North Africa, the Balkan area, Russia and the Former Soviet Union countries.
Joining Clinerion’s Patient Network Explorer platform will bring more innovative treatments to the patients of Athens Medical Center’s hospitals and clinics, and give their physicians more options in treating their patients. The group will also gain more exposure to global clinical trials run by international pharmaceutical companies and contract research organizations.
Drug developers working on innovative treatments will now benefit from access to new geographies and clinics with strong therapeutic focus.
Dr. Vassili G. Apostolopoulos, CEO of Athens Medical Group, commented: “A key aspect of our strategic planning is to constantly contribute to healthcare scientific and technological progress, always in favor of the patient.”
“This is a great partnership for Clinerion and we are happy to gain the great support of the entire Athens Medical Group!” says Ian Rentsch, CEO of Clinerion. “The level of ability and expertise brought by the physicians of Athens Medical Group will be a great benefit to clinical researchers using Clinerion’s Patient Network Explorer to support clinical research.”
