Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac

What Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac does

Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac is a private for-profit specialty healthcare clinic located at 4 Rue Georges Nègrevergne, 33700 Mérignac, near Bordeaux, France. Founded in 1995, the clinic focuses on orthopedic and traumatological surgery, treating musculoskeletal pathologies across the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, spine, hip, knee, ankle, and foot, and serves a patient base spanning sports-injury cases, general orthopedic conditions, and walk-in urgent locomotor complaints. The clinic reports 75 beds and places for hospitalization and ambulatory care, and serves an average patient age of 52 years.

Operationally, the clinic runs a state-of-the-art technical platform (plateau technique de dernière génération), an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (RAAC) protocol designed to accelerate post-operative outcomes, and an OrthoDirect walk-in orthopedic consultation center scheduled to open April 20, 2026 in the FIRST building of its campus. It also provides visceral and digestive surgery and anesthesia-resuscitation services, supported by hotel/companion services for inpatient stays. In 2021 the clinic was acquired by Groupe Vivalto Santé, a major private hospitalization operator across Europe, and has since operated within that group's institutional infrastructure (billing portals, practitioner directories, group branding). HAS certification was confirmed for four years following a May 2025 audit by the Haute Autorité de Santé, validating quality and safety of care.

The clinic's revenue model is built on professional services across three streams: surgical procedures, hospitalization/ambulatory services, and medical consultations. Patients access care via scheduled appointments booked through the practitioner directory, walk-in consultations via OrthoDirect, or inpatient/ambulatory hospitalization pathways. Services are reimbursed primarily through the French national health insurance system (Sécurité Sociale), with additional charges for optional hotel/comfort services. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the clinic directs patients to a hotel services and rates page and the admission process for detailed rate information. The clinic has received no disclosed funding rounds and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vivalto Santé, with no public ticker.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Others

• Doctolib: France's dominant health-tech appointment-booking and telemedicine platform that drives patient acquisition and slot management for Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac's online appointment funnel – a key enabling ecosystem partner rather than a competitor.
• Vivalto Santé (parent group): The clinic's parent group operates dozens of hospitals and clinics across France and Europe, several with orthopedic and surgical specialty focus. Not a competitor but the strategic owner whose capital allocation, referral routing, and procurement scale directly govern the clinic's growth runway.

Regional players

• Capio (Ramsay Santé): European orthopedic and general hospital operator (now within Ramsay Santé) running specialty surgical units across Scandinavia and France. Comparable specialty-hospital operating model but operating in different (primarily Nordic) geographies.
• Schön Klinik: German private orthopedic and specialist hospital chain known for high-volume orthopedic and spine surgery. Same specialty-hospital category with strong surgical focus, but operating in Germany rather than France.

Broad incumbents

• Almaviva Santé: French private clinic and hospital group with multiple orthopedic and surgical facilities serving similar patient segments. Comparable revenue and operating model layer, but with broader service mix rather than a pure sports-medicine specialty.
• Elsan: Major French private hospital operator (100+ facilities) offering orthopedic surgery among a broad specialty mix. Overlaps with Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac on musculoskeletal procedures and ambulatory care, but as a general multi-specialty group rather than a sports-focused specialty hospital.
• Ramsay Santé: Largest French private hospital group operating general and specialty facilities across France and Europe, including orthopedic surgery units that compete for the same elective caseload – but as part of a multi-specialty portfolio rather than a focused sports-medicine clinic.

Direct peers

• Centre Orthopédique Santy: Orthopedic specialty clinic in Lyon focused on sports medicine and joint surgery, with hospital capacity and a similar sports-orthopedic brand proposition to Clinique du Sport Bordeaux-Mérignac. Direct specialty competitor within the French private hospital market.
• Institut Calot – Fondation Hopale: Specialty orthopedic and rehabilitation hospital in Berck-sur-Mer focused on musculoskeletal surgery and post-operative rehab. Comparable specialty inpatient model serving orthopedic patients with full pre- to post-op pathways.
• Clinique Jouvenet: Paris-based private orthopedic surgery clinic with particular depth in hip and lower-limb surgery. Directly comparable specialty clinic model (dedicated OR, ambulatory pathways, single specialty focus).
