Metropolitan Hospital

What Metropolitan Hospital does

Metropolitan Hospital is a private tertiary-care hospital founded in 2001 and headquartered in Neo Faliro, Piraeus, Greece, operating as part of the Hellenic Healthcare Group (HHG) network. The hospital runs more than 50 clinical departments covering the major medical specialties, supported by specialized units including a general Intensive Care Unit, Cardiac ICU, Stroke Unit, and Day Care Unit, alongside a 24/7 emergency department, outpatient clinics, diagnostic laboratories, and HomeCare post-discharge services. Patient volumes are split between Greek residents — insured and self-pay — and international patients served through a dedicated multilingual International Patients department that coordinates cross-border care.

The hospital's competitive identity rests on a heavy capital base in advanced medical technology. It is the only site in Greece operating the da Vinci SP single-port robotic system, complemented by da Vinci Xi (used for the highest annual volume of urological robotic procedures in Europe) and MAKO RIO for orthopedic joint replacement. Diagnostic and therapeutic capability is anchored by a Magnetom Skyra 3T MRI, an EACVI-certified Cardiac MRI service, a SOMATOM Drive dual-source CT, an O-ARM II intraoperative imaging system, and a Varian Edge linear accelerator for radiotherapy. Specialty credibility is reinforced by European certifications: the first and only EUSOMA-certified Breast Centre in Greece, the first ESH Centre of Excellence in Hypertension in a Greek private hospital (June 2021), and the EACVI-certified Cardiac MRI Department (2026).

Commercially, Metropolitan generates fee-for-service revenue from inpatient admissions, outpatient clinics, emergency services, robotic surgery, diagnostic imaging, and preventive Check Up packages, with payment sourced from private patients and contracted health insurers. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; insurers are accepted and direct-pay patients can be quoted on inquiry. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via phone, email, the website (Greek and English), and a digital patient platform comprising the my-Ygeia mobile app and the Health_e Bonus loyalty program. Marketing combines content (physician-authored blog and video), social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok), and a dedicated medical-tourism channel for international patients.
