The retail unit of Sonae -
Sonae MC - wants to reinforce its commitment to health and wellbeing
with the opening of 75 dental and aesthetic clinics in the next eight
years. The first space Doctor Wells, the name chosen for
the network of clinics, was inaugurated this Friday, May 19, at the
Colombo Shopping Center in Lisbon.
The first clinic is made up of a team of 25 employees, 15 of whom are physicians. The space includes six medical offices (three dental, two aesthetic and a mixed), a sterilization zone and a waiting room. It operates every day from 9am to midnight, with the possibility of making appointments until 10pm.

The Sonae group
wants to open five new clinics later this year, one in Gaia and another
in North Shoping, with the remaining locations being studied by the
group. By 2018, Sonae wants to open 10 new stores and reach the 75 clinics scattered from north to south of the country. In
the area of dentistry, Doctor Well's clinic offers implantology,
prosthodontics, orthodontics, dentistry, oral surgery, endodontics,
periodontology and oral hygiene services.
The strategy is not just about growing in numbers. The inclusion of other specialties, such as ophthalmology, is being studied as well as the internationalization of the concept in the long term.

During the press
conference that took place during the opening of the new clinic, Inês
Valadas, Sonae MC manager, said that there is an opening in this market
to create a strong brand, not excluding the hypothesis that the growth
could go through the acquisition of existing clinics. It
was also advanced that one of the strategies of the clinics will go
through prices and solutions of accessible payments, as well as
agreements with the insurers of the networks Multicare and AdvanceCare.
