The story of Hippocrates medical center
The story of the private medical center Hippocrates began in 1995, when the founder and medical director M.D. Karol Tocik, PhD. left the work of a clinical neurologist at Kramare hospital in Bratislava and founded the very first private medical center of conventional medicine in Slovakia. Initially, the clinic focused exclusively on neurological patients but during the first two years of its existence, it transformed into a health center and expanded its activities.
The small private medical center Hippocrates was established as a family business out of a desire to put the high ideal of medicine expressed in the Hippocratic Oath, into practice. Currently, this family medical center is located in the Apollo Business Center II on Prievozska Street in Bratislava.
Since 2015, the son Michal Tocik and his wife have held the managerial positions of directors, taking over responsibility for the management and the future of the clinic. Despite the relocation and constant change of the Slovak healthcare system, family members together with other employees create a spirit of cooperation and a family atmosphere.
Hippocrates MC has quality certified specialists in the field of neurology, physiotherapy and rehabilitation, a general practitioner for adults, an internist and an art therapist.
