Dr. Ashraf Amir, medical director of the International Medical Center (IMC), added: “We have a clear vision for IMC’s development that we are focusing on realizing, by delivering international healthcare standards in the Western region of Saudi Arabia. We consider this deal as a first step in our growth strategy, through which we will explore further opportunities to acquire clinics with successful business models, alongside continuing to attract the best qualified and well recognized physicians and medical professionals.”
