Clinique Charcot

What Clinique Charcot does

Clinique Charcot is a private multi-disciplinary medical-surgical clinic headquartered at 51 Rue Commandant Charcot in Sainte-Foy-lès-Lyon (western Lyon), France, registered as CLINIQUE MEDICO-CHIRURGICALE CHARCOT (RCS 96250383500010) and operating since 1969 with 51–100 direct employees and a directory of more than 100 affiliated physicians across surgery, medicine, oncology, radiology, radiotherapy, and allied specialties. The facility operates a 10-surgery operating block with two endoscopy rooms and a dedicated interventional-radiology suite, supported by a technical plateau that includes a Da Vinci robotic-surgery system, an EOS Edge ultra-low-dose radiography unit, a 3 Tesla MRI, digital mammography with tomosynthesis and angio-mammography, a CT scanner, five ultrasound rooms, MRI-prostate fusion biopsy capability, and — through the on-campus ORLAM radiation-oncology center — two latest-generation linear accelerators and a large-bore CT for treatment planning. On-site partner operations include NephroCare Tassin-Charcot chronic dialysis (since 2011), Cerballiance medical biology (since February 2011), and the Imvoc radiology group (16 sub-specialized radiologists), enabling integrated diagnostic-to-therapeutic pathways particularly in oncology, orthopedics, spinal surgery, urology, gynecology, and nephrology.

The clinic serves the general patient population of western Lyon and the broader Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, with a primary cancer-care segment supported by a 3C cancer coordination committee in place since 2008, ONCO AURA regional network membership, and multidisciplinary tumor-board (RCP) decision-making. Patient-acquisition channels combine physician referrals (the primary channel), Doctolib and Imvoc online appointment booking, call-center intake, and external consultation offices at Place Bellecour, Promenade Bullukian, Irigny, and across the Imvoc partner sites. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service billing under the French Sécurité sociale framework with supplemental mutuelle coverage across consultations, hospitalizations, surgery, imaging, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and dialysis; specific published rates include €16.13–€25.80 per physiotherapy session and €55–€60 per osteopathy consultation.

Strategic positioning is reinforced by the HAS V2020 'A — Haute Qualité des soins' certification (November 2024), 1st-place regional and 5th-place national rankings in the Figaro 2025 palmarès for hospitalization over 48 hours, E-SATIS 2025 Category A satisfaction scores of 82.5% (in-patient) and 81.5% (ambulatory), three FHP 2026 Trophies (1st in TOETVA Specialty & Medical Innovation, 2nd in Quality Approach, Winner in Performance & Health Strategy), and active participation in clinical research networks including Unicancer, Arcagy GINéCO, FFCD, ESGE, SFED, FCVD, and AFSOS with multiple ongoing trials. The clinic is independently governed with Mme Frédérique Gama listed as director of publication, no parent company, no private-equity sponsorship, and no M&A activity disclosed in the input data.
