Phase one of the 15,000 sq. ft clinic is open for treatments and phase two will be ready to receive patients in March 2020.
“We are excited to be opening Zerenia in Bogota, a busy city of more than 10 million people and a population increasingly demanding convenient, one-stop access to medical care of the highest professional standards. In a state of the art clinic, our physicians and health care professionals will consult with patients and offer appropriate treatment therapies.” Comments Martha Edith Oyuela, Khiron Health Vice President. “For the first time patients will have access to an array of integrated professional, patient-centred options.”
“Our strategy in launching Zerenia is to meet a very clear market need to treat the whole patient in one professional environment. With the success of our Ilans clinics, and the growing movement towards integrated medical care, we are leading the market in bringing this concept to Colombia. This strategy further expands our reach to bring patients into the Khiron network, including those that are well suited for cannabis therapies.” Adds Khiron CEO and Director Alvaro Torres.
