Hospitales MAC Expands Medical Real Estate Portfolio

Hospitales MAC is expanding its medical real estate business, now offering over 300 more consultation offices for sale and lease within its hospital network. The move, which aims to attract physicians seeking to establish or grow their practice in clinical environments, builds on the company’s broader expansion strategy, which includes recent hospital openings in high-demand regions.

The company said the offering responds to nationwide demand for well-located, clinically integrated consultation spaces that streamline medical practice and improve patient access. “In Mexico there is an urgent need for accessible, safe, well-located consultation spaces adjacent to hospitals,” says Eduardo Verboonen, Co-President, Hospitales MAC. He adds that physicians who invest in an on-site office join a wider ecosystem supported by the hospital group.

Hospitales MAC, one of Mexico’s largest private hospital networks with 25 facilities, is focusing its real estate push in Mexico City and its metropolitan area, El Bajío, Los Mochis, and Mexicali, where population density and urban growth have increased pressure on medical infrastructure. The company aims to position its consultation portfolio as an option for specialists seeking operational continuity and proximity to hospital services, including laboratories, imaging, operating rooms, and emergency care.

The consultation offices vary in size and are available under purchase or rental schemes. Each unit can include an integrated services package covering maintenance, cleaning, security, fumigation, waste management, and sanitary supplies. Administrative support may include reception services and call routing. Each hospital manages its inventory through an on-site consultation office manager who coordinates with corporate staff to address tenant needs. Specialties with the highest presence across these spaces include cardiology, neurosurgery, orthopedics and trauma, urology, and general surgery.

The expansion of the real estate business aligns with the group’s broader growth trajectory. Over the past year, Hospitales MAC has opened multiple facilities in the State of Mexico, strengthening its regional footprint. In June 2025, the company rebranded the former Río de la Loza hospital as Hospital MAC Lomas Verdes, marking its fourth location in the state. Miguel Khoury, Founder and CEO, Hospitales MAC, says the decision reflects the area’s strategic relevance and need for modern hospital infrastructure. The 10,000m² Lomas Verdes facility expands its capacity to serve residents in Naucalpan and neighboring municipalities and includes 24-hour emergency care, five operating rooms, intensive care units for adults and newborns, diagnostics, maternity care, and specialty consultations.

Earlier in the year, Hospitales MAC inaugurated its 23rd hospital representing an investment exceeding MX$400 million. The facility forms part of the group’s target to operate 30 hospitals by 2030. Khoury says that the new facility, located in Interlomas, strengthens the group’s presence in the State of Mexico and supports its plan to reach cities with more than 250,000 inhabitants. The Interlomas location offers cardiology, neurology, oncology, and general surgery, and the company expects it to generate around 200 direct and indirect jobs.

The company is also expanding its technology and care models. Hospitales MAC has implemented AI-driven hemodynamics in operating rooms in Mexico City to support physicians during procedures requiring real-time analysis. It is also testing a hybrid care model known as “liquid hospital,” which merges in-hospital and home-based care. The MAC at Home service, introduced during the pandemic, allows patients to receive equipment and remote support to continue treatment at home.

Globally, the medical office real estate sector has experienced sustained growth due to the demand for modern clinical infrastructure, aging populations, and shifts toward preventive care. Consultation spaces within hospitals are considered valuable assets for their strategic locations and integration with essential medical services. According to Grand View Research, Mexico’s market for medical office buildings could reach US$221.9 million by 2030.

Álvaro Nieto, Director of Expansion, Hospitales MAC, says the company’s goal is to provide secure and functional spaces for medical professionals. He notes that an office inside a hospital can strengthen a physician’s practice and facilitate continuity of care.

Hospitales MAC employs more than 4,500 people and serves over 2 million patients across 21 cities. More than 90% of its hospitals were recognized by Expansión and Funsalud among the “Best Private Hospitals in Mexico 2025.” The company said its medical real estate strategy supports its commitment to expand clinical infrastructure and improve access to preventive care while offering new investment options for the medical community.
