Three years later Mediclinic International, running four hospitals in commission and three hospitals under construction, listed on the JSE, the South African stock exchange in 1986.

In 2006, Mediclinic reached agreement to acquire a controlling interest in Emirates Healthcare in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, which then owned one hospital, the rights to develop two further hospitals in the Dubai Healthcare City and five clinics.Mediclinic acquired Hirslanden, the largest private hospital group in Switzerland, for SF2.54bn in 2007.In June 2015, Mediclinic then acquired a 29.9% interest in Spire Healthcare, a UK-based private healthcare group.Mediclinic announced a reverse merger of Al Noor Hospitals in October 2015.
