The Bergman Clinics story

Since 2006, Bergman Clinics offers insured, fully reimbursed care which is the large majority of its activities today. In 2019, Bergman Clinics merged with NL Healthcare Clinics, creating the largest provider of specialist medical clinics in the Netherlands.

Bergman Clinics has more than 3,000 employees (of which >250 are specialists) who serve more than 300,000 patients every year.
