January 30, 2016 is marked on the Podoactiva calendar as a milestone in its business career. With the inauguration in Porto (Portugal) of the Nuno Mendes – ROPE clinic, one of the most prestigious clinics in Portugal, Podoactiva intends to position itself as a benchmark in podiatry in the Portuguese country.

The Nuno Mendes-ROPE clinic offers comprehensive health services to its patients and now with the inauguration of Podoactiva it promises to position itself as a benchmark for health and podiatric care. With the highest technology and the best professionals and experts in podiatry and biomechanics, Podoactiva begins its international expansion.

"We are very excited, we have great professionals and we fully trust the project," says Víctor Alfaro, CEO of Podoactiva, during the inauguration. The podiatry and biomechanics specialists who are part of the Portuguese team, Emilia Ribeiro and Diana Machado, have been training for two months at the Podoactiva headquarters, in the Walqa Technology Park, to learn about Podoactiva's work and consultation methods. “For us, training is very important, and that all our specialists know the protocols and methodologies in consultation. A patient should receive the same excellent care at any of our clinics,” Alfaro stressed.

Ismael Fernández, Podoactiva's internationalization manager, wanted to highlight the intense work carried out by all the members of the team, and "the enormous satisfaction of being able to see the start of a great project".
