In 2021, Clínica do Lambert — a national benchmark in Orthopaedics, Traumatology and Sports Medicine — chose DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting to completely rebuild its network infrastructure: certified structured cabling, business Wi-Fi, a server with Active Directory, Microsoft 365, a firewall with VPN and hybrid backup. Operations then came under ongoing management through an annual IT Unlimited contract.

Why a clinic needs a network that does not fail
The clinic brings together orthopaedics, traumatology, sports medicine, dentistry, advanced physiotherapy and diagnostic tests. Appointments, tests, clinical management, electronic records, internal communication and rehabilitation all depend on the information systems. In a multidisciplinary operation like this one, downtime is not an option.
