Health City Cayman Islands, the largest private sector medical entity in the Cayman Islands and one of the largest in the Caribbean, is excited to announce the acquisition of Practice Plus Group by its parent company, Narayana Health (NH). This strategic move further solidifies NH’s commitment to enhancing healthcare accessibility and affordability globally, aligning with the vision of Dr Devi Shetty, founder of NH and Health City Cayman Islands, who believes that “A solution isn’t a solution if it isn’t affordable.”
Practice Plus Group, one of the UK’s largest independent healthcare providers, operates 13 hospitals and surgical centres across England, delivering high-quality treatment to communities. With a history of over a million procedures, the group is recognised for its outstanding performance in key medical specialties, including orthopaedics, ophthalmology, and general surgery. The acquisition represents an opportunity for NH to strengthen its support for the UK government and National Health Service (NHS) in reducing waiting times and enhancing patient choice, a mission that resonates deeply with Health City’s ongoing efforts in the Cayman Islands.
Over the last decade, Health City has transformed healthcare in the Cayman Islands by introducing life-saving specialty services across various domains, particularly in cardiac and neurological care. With nearly $1 billion in economic impact through construction and medical tourism, Health City has been pivotal in filling critical gaps in healthcare provision while maintaining its commitment to affordability and excellence in patient care.
As Health City’s parent NH continues to expand its global healthcare vision, the acquisition of Practice Plus Group enhances the synergy between the UK and the Cayman Islands. This partnership underscores NH’s dedication to delivering world-class care while supporting local governments and healthcare systems.
“We are thrilled about the acquisition of Practice Plus Group, as it aligns perfectly with our mission of providing high-quality, affordable healthcare,” said Dr Devi Shetty. “This strategic move allows us to extend our reach and impact, ensuring that more patients have access to the care they need, whether in the UK or here in the Caribbean.”
Health City Cayman Islands looks forward to leveraging this acquisition to enhance its service offerings and continue its commitment to the health and well-being of residents in the Cayman Islands and the wider Caribbean region.
