Clinica Clinics in Cebu is part of an expanding network of healthcare facilities under Clinica Prime Cebu Inc., a partnership between global healthcare services provider Clinica Clinics and Cebu-based holding company, LH Paragon Inc.
The LH Paragon Group of Companies has been operating in the country for more than 50 years, with holdings in different industries both in the Philippines and abroad, including fashion retailing, wood distribution, real estate development, food retailing, and healthcare services.
In 2021, LH Paragon Group entered into a joint venture with the Spain-based Clinica Group to further improve and elevate the patient experience through a more innovative approach to holistic healthcare and patient services combining global expertise and local experience.
Clinica Group Global CEO Sergio Martinez voiced optimism that the partnership has now actively been delivering an improved healthcare model and launched new innovations to ensure high quality and cost-effective care. He further adds, “The goal is not to solve people’s illnesses, but to keep them healthy and improve their quality of life by providing them access to affordable, quality healthcare.”
LH Paragon Group CFO Edmun Liu adds, “Coming from the pandemic, we have witnessed the importance of keeping ourselves and our community healthy. We share in the optimism of our partners that with the improved healthcare framework and product innovations, we are now closer to providing access to quality primary healthcare for every Filipino.”
