Established: 1998

Country: Poland

Investors: MidEuropa

Diagnostyka is the market leader in laboratory diagnostics in Poland, operating a nationwide network of laboratories, blood collection points, and diagnostic imaging facilities. During MidEuropa’s ownership, the company was transformed into a highly scaled and consolidated platform, combining strong organic growth with an active acquisition strategy.

MidEuropa supported the company in building a leading healthcare brand and accelerating its expansion through systematic market consolidation. Over time, Diagnostyka developed a broad network serving both individual patients and a large base of institutional clients.

By 2025, Diagnostyka had become one of the most prominent healthcare platforms in Central and Eastern Europe, culminating in a landmark public listing on the Warsaw Stock Exchange and validating its position as a scalable, market-leading diagnostics business.
