At Affidea, our culture is built around people. In a brief conversation, Eduardo Blazquez Gomez, Chief HR Officer at Affidea Group, reflects on a belief central to who we are: exceptional patient starts with the people who deliver it.

That is why , professional and continuous are so important across our European network. By investing in our teams, we strengthen not only their expertise, but also the quality, and care we offer to our patients every day. 💙

At Affidea, starts with listening.

As José Antonio Estellés Trenco, Director of Dentistry Operations at Affidea Spain, shares, truly patient-centred care means being close to people, understanding their individual needs, and ensuring that every patient receives the care that is right for them. Because healthcare is not only about treatment, it is about people feeling heard, understood, and cared for at every step of their journey. 💙

Not every part of the care journey happens on a scan, in a consultation room, or through a procedure. Often, it starts with a conversation.

In this video, Juozas Kupčiūnas, physiotherapist at Affidea Lietuva (Lithuania), speaks about what it really takes to support a patient through recovery, understanding their fears, building , and staying alongside them through every high and low of the journey.

Because healing is rarely linear. It requires more than clinical expertise. It requires teams who listen, who align, and who know how to meet each patient where they are.

At Affidea, this is how we deliver . Through multi-disciplinary teams that combine medical excellence with a deep understanding of the individual behind every case. This is what personalised care looks like in practice.

Not a concept, but something patients feel, every step of the way. 💙

Affidea continues to expand its integrated care model in Switzerland with the acquisition of Berner Urologen AG, a well-established urology practice with locations in Bern and Langenthal.

This step goes beyond footprint growth. It strengthens our ability to deliver end-to-end urology pathways, from advanced diagnostics to highly specialised day-surgery care within a coordinated, out-of-hospital setting closer to patients.

Berner Urologen brings strong clinical expertise across diagnostic assessments, conservative treatments, and complex procedures, including robot-assisted and microsurgical techniques. Combined with our existing Uroviva network across Zurich, Zug, Lucerne and Solothurn, this enables a more seamless patient journey, connecting , and follow-up within one integrated system.

“Berner Urologen AG is an excellent fit for Affidea Switzerland and represents an important step in the further development of our urology network. With this acquisition, we are strategically expanding our outpatient medical services and strengthening our presence in the Bern region,” says Marc-André Christinat, CEO of Affidea Switzerland.

Dr Charles Niehaus, Executive Director of the Affidea Group, added: “This acquisition reflects how we are continuing to evolve our model of , expanding our network of leading collaborative clinicians, moving beyond standalone services towards fully integrated, patient-centred pathways. In urology, this means connecting early diagnostics, specialist expertise and treatment within one coordinated ecosystem, improving both clinical outcomes and patient experience. Switzerland is a key market for Affidea, and this step strengthens our ability to scale high-quality, out-of-hospital care in a structured and sustainable way across Europe.”

defines how we deliver healthcare every day.

In this video, Sweetnam, Consultant Knee Surgeon at Affidea’s Fortius Clinic in the UK, speaks to a simple but powerful truth: patients should never feel like numbers in a system. They should feel seen, understood, and confident that they are in a place that will truly look after them.

This is what it means to personalise . To shape every interaction around the individual, to listen with intent, to build trust through consistency, and to combine clinical excellence with a genuine human connection.

Because better healthcare is not only about what we deliver, it is about how people experience it. And that experience should always reflect one thing: that every person who walks through our door matters.

Guy Blomfield, CEO of Affidea and Chairman of the Management Board, joined industry leaders at the LaingBuisson's Investing in Healthcare Conference in London, speaking in the “Growth of the Outpatient Sector” panel, together with Justin Hely, CEO of GenesisCare, in a discussion moderated by Ali Bahram, Associate Partner at Mansfield Advisors.

The conference convened healthcare leaders, policymakers, investors and providers to address one of the most pressing questions in healthcare today: how to sustainably shift care closer to patients while maintaining and .

Affidea's CEO highlighted the structural forces accelerating this transformation across Europe — ageing populations, the rise of chronic diseases, increasing pressure on hospital capacity, and patients’ expectations for faster, more accessible, high-quality care delivered closer to home.

Drawing on Affidea’s experience across multiple markets, he emphasised the strength of our integrated, out-of-hospital model in responding to these challenges, expanding system capacity, reducing waiting times, and delivering high-quality, patient-centred care in community settings.

As Guy Blomfield noted: “The future of healthcare lies closer to patients. Across Europe, we are seeing a clear shift toward integrated, out-of-hospital driven by the need to expand capacity, improve , and respond to rising patient expectations. When care is better coordinated and delivered closer to communities, it becomes more , more efficient, and ultimately delivers better outcomes while supporting the long-term sustainability of healthcare systems.”

At Affidea, this model is already delivering impact at scale across Europe, demonstrating that high-quality care, when designed around patients and supported by strong clinical governance and digital innovation, can effectively move beyond the traditional hospital setting.

We thank LaingBuisson for the invitation to this important conversation.
