Mediterraneo sits on Ilias Street in Glyfada, 164 beds and more than twenty-five specialties, and it is the only full private hospital on this coastline. Everything else at this level is in Marousi, Neo Faliro or on Mesogeion.
The two-in-the-morning hospital
That is the function. A household in Vouliagmeni or Kavouri is between nine and ten kilometres from this building and thirty-five to fifty minutes from the Marousi cluster depending on traffic. In an emergency that difference is the whole decision.
The named centres are where the substance is: an acute stroke unit running around the clock, spine neurosurgery, cardiac work including TAVI and cardiac MRI with European CMR laboratory accreditation, a breast clinic, and radiotherapy on an Edge linear accelerator.
What it is not
It is smaller than Hygeia, Athens Medical Center or Henry Dunant, and it holds no JCI accreditation. What it does hold is BS EN 15224, the healthcare-specific quality standard, and it was the first hospital in Greece to get it.
The right way to use this coast is both: this hospital for the ordinary week and the emergency, and Marousi for anything that needs a tertiary campus. How Greek private healthcare actually works sets out the insurance side of that.
