Clínica La Sagrada Familia

What Clínica La Sagrada Familia does

Cl\u00ednica La Sagrada Familia is a private specialty medical institution headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of neurocardiovascular and cerebrovascular pathologies. It operates across three Buenos Aires locations (Jos\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez 1642 headquarters, Luis Mar\u00eda Campos 1385 external consultation offices, and Zabala 1680 imaging center) with a staff of 459 employees. The clinic is anchored by a 24/7 neurological emergency service for stroke (ACV), a dedicated stroke unit, a mobile cerebral rescue unit, and a telestroke program. It is closely associated with ENERI (Equipo de Neurocirug\u00eda Endovascular y Radiolog\u00eda Intervencionista), a research entity led by Director General Prof. Dr. Pedro Lylyk.

The clinic's core offerings include minimally invasive endovascular neurovascular and cardiovascular procedures, advanced diagnostic imaging, preventive health checkup programs (Brain Spine Cardio Check, Fem Check, Men Check), and neuroelectrophysiology services. Its technology stack comprises three Philips biplanar angiography systems, the only spectral CT scanner in South America, the first Philips 3 Tesla MRI in Argentina with AI-assisted stroke analysis software, and specialized imaging software for aneurysm flow analysis, stent visualization, real-time perfusion, and dynamic 3D road mapping. Revenue is generated through professional services billed primarily via Argentine medical insurance networks (coberturas m\u00e9dicas) across consultation, imaging, interventional procedures, emergency services, and preventive programs. The clinic does not publicly disclose pricing.

Its commercial posture is that of an international reference center, evidenced by Advanced Stroke Center certification from the World Stroke Organization and SIECV (recertified 2026), SILAN training center accreditation (2026), and active participation in international multicenter trials including WE-TRUST and ETCHES 1. Distribution combines direct patient acquisition through phone, WhatsApp, and an online appointment portal, with a 24/7 walk-in emergency service and a referral-driven pipeline through ENERI. The clinic also runs the annual SIMI (Semana del Intervencionismo M\u00ednimamente Invasivo) international conference and a public stroke awareness program (SoCoorR\u00e9) that build brand and patient funnels. Ownership is physician/founder-led with no disclosed private equity or venture capital involvement.
