Grupo Leforte

What Grupo Leforte does

Grupo Leforte is a private hospital and diagnostic clinic network headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, founded in 1945 (originally as Hospital Antônio Lerario) and operating today as a subsidiary of Dasa (Diagnósticos da América) following its 2021 affiliation. The network comprises three hospitals — Hospital Leforte Liberdade, Hospital Leforte Morumbi, and the Alphaville/Barueri unit — alongside three diagnostic clinics across the São Paulo metropolitan area, delivering 24/7 emergency services, inpatient care, surgical procedures, and outpatient consultations across more than 50 medical specialties.

The portfolio is structured around 12 specialized reference centers (Centros de Referência) covering oncology, transplants, hyperbaric medicine, wound treatment, infusion therapy, pediatrics, women's health, orthopedics and trauma, obesity and diabetes, and diagnostic imaging. Underlying technology includes robotic surgery systems, 3D video surgery platforms, hyperbaric oxygen chambers, a Linear Accelerator Infinity for radiotherapy, advanced hemodynamics, and telemedicine services. Clinical laboratory analyses are performed by Delboni Auriemo, a Dasa subsidiary, creating integrated diagnostic and therapeutic pathways. The network holds Qmentum International Accreditation at the Diamond level (the highest tier) at both Liberdade and Morumbi, plus 2025 UTI Top Performer and UTI Eficiente certifications from EPIMED/AMIB for the Liberdade ICU.

Revenue is generated through two primary channels: services billed to accepted health insurance plans (convênios) including Bradesco Saúde and Albert Einstein, and direct private-pay (particular) services for consultations, exams, and surgical procedures, with dedicated surgical budgeting and treasury channels per unit. The network serves the general São Paulo population across B2C channels including walk-in visits, web booking, a mobile app on Google Play, WhatsApp contact, and a central call center, while an in-house Instituto de Ensino e Pesquisa supports medical education and research. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
