INTERNATIONAL CARDIOLOGY CENTER

What INTERNATIONAL CARDIOLOGY CENTER does

International Cardiology Center (trade name iCardio) is a private cardiology practice founded in 2020 and domiciled in Brussels, Belgium. It is led by a single consulting cardiologist, Dr. Georges OBEID, and operates through partnership agreements with three established medical facilities in the Brussels metropolitan area: City Clinic (Ixelles, Tuesdays 14:00-17:00), Louise Medical Center (Ixelles, Wednesdays and Fridays 13:30-20:00), and NCB Chirec Basilique (Ganshoren, Mondays and Thursdays 14:00-18:00). The practice originated as a relocation of Dr. OBEID's consultations following the permanent closure of Clinique Antoine Depage after the COVID-19 epidemic wave.

The service offering is narrow and traditional: outpatient cardiology consultations provided in person at the three partner clinic locations. The practice describes its approach as adherence to "the latest scientific recommendations and advances" and Belgian and European medical deontology, with optional collaboration with external intra- or extra-hospital physicians on diagnostic workups. There are no disclosed software products, digital platforms, tele-cardiology services, proprietary diagnostic technology, or distinct product modules — the entity functions as a conventional solo-specialist medical practice rather than a technology-enabled health services company.

Revenue is generated exclusively from professional cardiology consultation fees billed to individual patients under a direct-to-consumer model; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled through the partner clinics. The practice employs approximately 10 people (per firmographic input), has no disclosed institutional ownership, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no publicly stated expansion plans. Patient acquisition is passive, relying on the visibility of Dr. OBEID's profile pages on the partner clinic websites and minimal direct marketing. Customer concentration is low at the patient level, but clinical capacity is entirely dependent on a single practitioner.
