About Meliva

Meliva is Estonia’s largest private healthcare provider, primarily offering dental care, occupational health and specialist medical services. Meliva operates 22 locations across Estonia, five mobile health units equipped with specialised medical equipment, and the Digikliinik app, which enables remote consultations with doctors.

Since spring 2021, the former Qvalitas and Unimed businesses operating under the Meliva brand have been owned by Mehiläinen, a Finnish healthcare company with more than a century of experience. In addition to Estonia, Mehiläinen operates in six other European markets: Finland, Sweden, Germany, Lithuania, Romania and Serbia.
