DaVita buys another company

DaVita is the second biggest dialysis company in the US where it runs a large number of dialysis centers. It has operations in Singapore and Bangalore as well, and is looking at China as a future market. But is also has plans for Europe, where it already has a subsidiary.

It was reported recently in the Denver Post that DaVita has acquired a German dialysis company, ExtraCorp AG, a company that owns two dialysis centers, in Salzgitter and Seesen, and manages two others, in Dresden and Freital. And Davita is on the lookout for more European business. Perhaps because their is little room left for much growth in the US dialysis market.
