The company was established as Medical Ambulatory Care Inc in the year 1979 and was a subsidiary of the National Medical Care Enterprise, Inc. In August 1994, DLJ Merchant Banking Partners acquired 75% of its shares, following which its name was changed to Total Renal Care Holdings Inc. However, after a series of setbacks and poor integration, in 1998, the company paced up its growth under the visionary guidance of CEO Kent Thiry. It was then that the company was introduced as DaVita in May 2020, and went forward to record a series of successes. Through persistent commitment, the company is now the largest provider of kidney care services across the United States and is a leader in innovating ways to improve clinical quality for about 20 years.
