    São Paulo is one of the most important healthcare markets in Brazil, with strong and growing demand for high-quality healthcare services.  This acquisition allows us to expand access to life-enhancing renal care for more patients and strengthen our role in the communities we serve.
    Luciano Bonaldo, Country Manager for Diaverum Brazil
    Latin America remains a key region in Diaverum’s long-term development strategy. Strengthening our presence in São Paulo state increases regional market presence, enhances clinical collaboration and builds a more connected network of care. This expansion allows us not only to grow dialysis capacity, but also to further support integrated chronic disease management. By embedding our Care Delivery Model and leveraging digital tools, we are better positioned to enable earlier intervention and improved care coordination for patients living with complex conditions such as diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
    José María Ordóñez, VP Europe & LATAM
    Brazil is a strategic market for Diaverum given its scale, long-term g​rowth potential and the opportunity to continue advancing standards within a fragmented dialysis landscape. Expanding in São Paulo state - the country’s most economically dynamic region - reinforces our ability to deliver consistently high-quality, patient-centered renal care at scale.
    Rafael Romanini, Diaverum CEO and COO for Europe and LATAM

    Rafael Romanini, CEO of Diaverum
    Ribeirão Preto is a thriving regional hub with growing demand for specialised healthcare. The acquisition of SENERP allows us to expand our presence in the interior of São Paulo through a mature and well-managed clinic that shares Diaverum’s values: patient-centered care, clinical excellence, and a commitment to innovation.
    Rafael Romanini, CEO of Diaverum
    SENERP brings together a highly skilled clinical team, robust infrastructure, and a strong track record of quality care. This acquisition strengthens our position in the Southeast region and opens new opportunities for collaboration with private payers, enabling us to deliver integrated, patient-specific renal care across all treatment pathways.
    Luciano Bonaldo, Country Manager for Diaverum Brazil
    Expanding capacity is just one part of our mission – our focus remains on improving care quality and continuity for every patient. By integrating SENERP into our network, we will deploy Diaverum’s standardised medical protocols, continuous training programmes, and digital tools, building a more efficient and compassionate renal care ecosystem.
    Paulo Cicogna, Medical Director for Diaverum Brazil
    This new partnership exemplifies the best of what public-private collaboration can achieve — bringing together our clinical expertise, digital capabilities and True care culture to support the Spanish health system in delivering world-class renal care. It is an honour to contribute to improving the lives of even more patients in Andalusia, and to do so in close partnership with the local health authorities.
    Rafael Romanini, Diaverum CEO

Together with M42, we are broadening access to kidney care, improving outcomes, and helping build more resilient, sustainable healthcare systems.

We are committed to enhancing the lives of people with chronic kidney disease, by offering world-class care, supported by our digital infrastructure and innovative solutions. The integration of the UNTR clinic is not only a strategic milestone, but a reflection of our purpose: to make high-quality care accessible to more patients, where and when they need it most.
    Rafael Romanini, Diaverum’s CEO
    The integration of the UNTR clinic into our portfolio marks an important step forward in advancing our long-term strategy in Greater São Paulo.

By strengthening our presence here, we are not only expanding access but also building meaningful partnerships with public and private stakeholders to serve patients across all care pathways.
    Luciano Bonaldo, Country Manager for Diaverum Brazil
    Increasing capacity is only part of the equation – our true focus is on improving the quality and continuity of care for every patient. The UNTR clinic brings strong clinical foundations and a shared culture of patient-centred care, which we will enhance further through Diaverum’s standardised medical protocols, training programmes, and digital tools. This is another important step toward a more integrated and efficient renal care system in Brazil.

    Ziyad Kabli, Diaverum's Chief Operating Officer for Middle East and Asia
    The acquisition of IMU Dialysis marks a major milestone as our first-ever acquisition in Malaysia since entering the market. While we have been managing this clinic operationally for the past 11 years, this move represents a formal investment into the local market.

Since 2008, we have added 264 clinics, entered 14 new markets, more than quadrupled our patient base and, more importantly, consistently improved our Clinical Performance Measurement scores year-on-year, achieving an all-time high in 2024. I am committed to building on this legacy, accelerating both organic and inorganic growth, and expanding access to high-quality renal care for underserved communities – because everyone deserves a fulfilling life.

    Dimitris Moulavasilis, Diaverum’s CEO
    I am honoured to welcome the UAE to our Diaverum family. Today’s announcement marks a significant milestone in our mission to transform renal care worldwide, and grow our offering in the Middle East, a region that is feeling the escalating healthcare burden of CKD to patients, communities and national health care systems.

    This partnership marks a significant milestone in our mission to transform renal care in Greece.

    Dimitris Moulavasilis, Diaverum CEO

    Paulo Cicogna, Medical Director for Diaverum Brazil
    We are thrilled to announce the inclusion of Woodgate Dialysis Unit to our portfolio of clinics, which represents a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to providing exceptional healthcare to our communities. The dialysis centre is designed to offer comprehensive, patient-centred care, leveraging the latest medical advancements and technologies. Our dedicated team of nursing professionals is excited to serve our patients in a comfortable and modern environment, ensuring the highest standards of medical excellence and compassionate care.
    Lisa Jordan, Managing Director for Diaverum UK
    I am excited and proud in equal measure about our new offering. Travel – and more specifically, freedom of movement - is an essential part of life; it’s not only about exploring new destinations but also about being able to connect with friends and family in other cities or countries. Patients who are on a transplant waiting list are on call 24/7 and must be able to reach the transplant centre within a short window of time once they are notified a kidney is available for them. Our d.HOLIDAY Fly Back Programme will give these patients the confidence to travel with piece of mind at such an important moment in their lives.
    Michaela Blomstrand, Global Director Patient Experience and Stakeholder Management
    I am delighted that d.HOLIDAY, an incredibly valuable service available to people living with CKD, is now supporting the mobility of dialysis patients on their long-awaited and highly emotional journey towards transplantation. As both a nephrologist and kidney donor, I’ve had the privilege to witness the profound difference receiving a kidney can make in empowering CKD patients to live fulfilling lives. That d.HOLIDAY understands and supports this, is proof that Diaverum is an organisation with True care at the core of everything it does.
    Dr Domingos Machado, Transplantation Ambassador
    There is a growing awareness of the environmental impact of healthcare. If the global healthcare industry were a country, it would be the world’s fifth largest contributor to carbon emissions. When it comes to renal care, dialysis is not only a lifetime burden to patients, but also a significant burden to the environment. With that in mind, we are tackling the environmental impact of our operations head on, articulating a new environmental strategy to lead us to Net Zero by 2050. Our provision of life-enhancing renal care to patients around the world creates a platform from which we can reduce our environmental footprint while improving medical outcomes and the well-being of the people we care for, in a true win-win situation.
    Dimitris Moulavasilis, Diaverum CEO
    We truly believe that private companies’ ethical operating principles and sustainable business models can create shared value that benefit society, while safeguarding the environment in which we live. Reflecting on Diaverum’s ESG journey to date, I am inspired by both the progress made and the challenges ahead. With dedication to our patients, employees,partners and the wider society in which we operate as our constant, I am confident that Diaverum is poised to drive positive change, shaping a more sustainable future for the healthcare industry and beyond. All of this is shared in detail in our 2023 ESG Report, which I invite you to read.
    Stephanie de Sury, Global ESG Manager
    This latest win is fantastic news for Diaverum and serves to underscore the growth trajectory we’re on in the UK. There were a number of our competitors involved in what was a highly competitive tender. Our bid – combining best-in-class care at the right pricing - was clearly a compelling and winning offer. Many thanks to everyone involved for this tremendous win.
    Lisa Jordan, Managing Director - Diaverum UK
    At Diaverum, we are dedicated to empowering patients and their families to live fulfilling lives, and we know that travel plays a huge role in this. But travelling can feel like a very big challenge for people who need to receive regular dialysis treatments. That’s why we developed d.HOLIDAY, a programme which gives patients access to high quality care at their travel destination.
    Michaela Blomstrand, Diaverum Global Director Patient Experience and Stakeholder Management
    We know that taking a holiday is an important part of enjoying life, and how daunting it can be for patients on dialysis to even imagine planning a short trip, more so a holiday. That’s why we have dedicated d.HOLIDAY Coordinators in each country where we operate, who support patients through every step of their journey – from developing a travel itinerary that suits their needs, to submitting the necessary travel documentation and getting recommendations on CKD-friendly activities. We want to make it as easy as possible for anyone on dialysis to benefit from a relaxing trip.
    Elenor Mårtensson, d.HOLIDAY Global Customer Manager
    I am delighted that Greece has been added to the list of 24 countries across the world where d.HOLIDAY is available. Our clinic teams are ready to welcome holiday dialysis patients and provide them with exceptional care services, going above & beyond to ensure they enjoy wonderful holiday experiences. We hope this news inspires more dialysis patients to travel to Greece, a beautiful country which has something to offer for everyone.
    Aris Bailan, Diaverum Hellas Managing Director
    As a proud Greek myself, I couldn’t be more delighted to welcome Greece to Diaverum’s global network, as our 24th country.  With the strong foundation our newly acquired clinics have already put in place, combined with our global standards of care and industry-leading digital innovations, we aim to deliver a step-change in the provision of world-class, AI-enabled, personalised kidney care in Greece, underscored by Diaverum’s True care culture
    Dimitris Moulavasilis, Diaverum CEO
    Today’s news marks the continuation of our organisation’s expansion across the Mediterranean region, where we already have operations in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy and Morocco. Our expansion into Greece is starting with the acquisition of a group of clinics renowned for their exceptional care standards, top-tier facilities, and outstanding human capital. We are eager to collaborate with our new colleagues and local healthcare authorities to provide life-enhancing renal care throughout Greece
