Family Doctor Medical Clinic opens new paediatric treatment centre in Moscow

Family Doctor Medical Clinic ltd announces opening of new paediatric treatment facility in Moscow.

The fifth Family Doctor treatment centre has opened in Moscow. The children's centre, comprised of 12 treatment rooms in a building near Family Doctor's main clinic, is designed to treat children of all ages.

The clinic boasts the latest equipment for laboratory analysis, diagnosis and treatment, as well as procedure and vaccination rooms. It offers treatment in all key areas of paediatric medicine, including allergy and immunology, gastroenterology, dermatology, cardiology, neurology, and more. The clinic will be staffed by in-house specialists.

"Treating children has been a key priority for Family Doctor Medical Clinic. We started by offering a call-out service to treat children, and then opened paediatric departments in two of our clinics. As of 2013, our clinic was one of the top ten for children in Moscow on the price/quality ratio, and number two in the Expert RA listing of private clinics," said Aleksandr Shlychkov, CEO at Family Doctor Medical Clinic, speaking at the opening ceremony for this new paediatric wing. "The new facility will be able to offer highly qualified medical treatment to over 200 little patients each day," he said.

"I am delighted that Family Doctor is opening a new clinic to provide children with much needed care, and to continue delivering benefits to the communities in which it operates," said Andrey Yakunin, Managing Partner of VIY Management, an investment partner in this project. "Its ability to continue expanding in the current climate is testament to a successful development strategy."
