Mindfront Health, a Subsidiary of Luye Medical, Completes Its First Acquisition in China to Strengthen Mental Health Services

On March 30, 2020, VCBeat (WeChat official account: vcbeat) learned that Mindfront Health, the mental health and psychological services brand under Luye Medical Group, announced the completion of its acquisition of Guangdong Xinlin Doctor Group, a private psychological medical institution. This move officially marks Mindfront Health’s entry into the Chinese mental health and psychological care market. Leveraging its international resource advantages in the field of mental health, Mindfront Health will provide value-based healthcare services of international standards to patients in China.

Mindfront Health (Manlang Medical), a subsidiary of Luye Medical Group, is the second-largest private mental health and psychological care provider in Australia. With 14 medical facilities across the country and over 40 years of professional expertise, it has established a mature and comprehensive multidisciplinary evidence-based diagnosis and treatment system. Its integrated therapeutic services include group psychotherapy, individual psychotherapy, expressive arts therapy, and exercise and relaxation programs, extending beyond conventional pharmacological treatments.

Manlang Medical is committed to introducing Australia’s psychiatric and psychological treatment systems and models to China. Focusing on depression, anxiety, perinatal mood disorders, attention deficits in children and adolescents, and sleep disorders, the company provides localized services. It offers personalized, comprehensive, non-pharmacological treatments primarily for patients with mild to moderate conditions, helping them—particularly those affected by the pandemic—return to normal life.

Guangzhou Xinlin Clinic, founded by the Guangdong Xinlin Physician Group, opened in 2018 and now boasts a professional team of over 30 members, including psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses, psychotherapists, and psychological counselors. Adhering to the principles of evidence-based medicine and employing scientific models of psychological diagnosis and treatment, the team advocates for “comprehensive care” and “whole-course disease management.” It has provided high-quality consultation, diagnosis, and treatment services for mental disorders to nearly 10,000 clients.

Tang Dekai, CEO of Manlang Healthcare (China), stated that this merger and collaboration will enhance the clinical service capabilities and scale of Guangzhou Xinlin, thereby accelerating Manlang Healthcare’s business expansion in China. With its professional medical team and mature clinical service experience, Guangzhou Xinlin has a deep understanding of domestic customer needs, which will help Manlang Healthcare accelerate the localization and implementation of valuable Australian therapeutic programs and service offerings in China. Meanwhile, through its partnership with Guangzhou Xinlin, Manlang Healthcare aims to establish an operational management model tailored to the domestic market, facilitating rapid deployment of its business across China.

Dr. Hu Sanhong, founder of the Guangdong Xinlin Doctor Group, stated that as Luye Medical’s first psychiatric and psychological clinic in China, Guangzhou Xinlin greatly values this collaborative opportunity. It is committed to working jointly with Manlang Medical to integrate Australian medical practices with the local context in China, thereby co-developing a new service model tailored to the actual needs and cultural background of the Chinese population.

It is reported that Manlang Medical will continue to pursue a dual-track development strategy of mergers and acquisitions alongside self-built facilities, establishing specialized hospitals and clinics in core cities across China, while exploring innovative models for internet-based mental health services.

Looking ahead, Luye Medical will continue to leverage its business integration advantages to build competitive strengths in core therapeutic areas such as oncology and neuropsychiatry, thereby consolidating and enhancing its brand and influence as a leading private healthcare provider in the Asia-Pacific region. Meanwhile, it will actively promote innovative collaboration with other business units under Luye Life Sciences Group, striving relentlessly to achieve its goal of delivering customer-centric “holistic healthcare solutions.”
