Nobel Medical Group arose from the first Nobel ophthalmic clinic on Gongyuan Road in Taipei City, which was established in 2001. The founder of Nobel Medical Group, Dr. Chao-Kai Chang, was inspired to engage in medical service from his experiences in the clinic. The Nobel Medical Group is an association that includes the Merrier Beauty Institute, Soreal Dental Clinics, Nomel Opticals, Mendel Biotech Institute, and the Nobel Education institute. Dr. Chao-Kai Chang is actively involved in academic research and improving ophthalmology healthcare. To practice medical service in various fields, the group collaborates with international medical groups and societies to co-host international conferences. The group also participates in charitable and humanitarian activities around the world.
History
In November 2001, Dr. Chao-Kai Chang, the founder of the group, established the first Taipei Nobel Eye Clinic on Gongyuan Road in Zhongzheng District, Taipei. In the next 20 years, almost 30 Nobel Eye Clinics have been established around Taiwan, from the front of Taipei Main Station to Taizhong, Tainan, and Kaosiung.
In 2005, another founder of the group, Dr. Mei-Ling Chen, established Merrier Aesthetic Clinic to combine the related characteristics of eye plastic surgery and micro plastic surgery, and then successively established five aesthetic clinics: Neihu, Banqiao, Keelung and Hsinchu. The newest Merrier Clinic in Banqiao offers both aesthetic and vision services.
Mendel Global Biotech Company was established in March 2005. In the beginning, its core business was gene testing, but it eventually moved on to planning health foods for the Nobel Ophthalmic Clinic and beauty care products for Merrier Aesthetic Clinic. In 2019, the company was reorganized and returned to its original roots. At present, its main business is industrial projects relted to the field of anti-aging. Health foods and beauty care products are now developed and produced by the group’s Nomel Health Technology (Holding) Co., Ltd.
In December 2008, Cornell Education Co., Ltd. (Company) was established. In order to meet the group’s talent training needs, it is responsible for the group’s education and training internally, while externally promoting cooperation with cross-strait and international health-related courses and degrees.
In October 2009, the group established the first Dunnan Nomel Opticials to meet the needs of its Nobel Eye Clinic customers. After that, four further opticians in Banqiao, Nangang and Taipei were established.
In November 2015, in view of the fact that dental whitening and health is also an indispensable part of cosmetic medicine, the group cooperated with stomatology expert Dr. Yi-Ru Lin to establish Dunnan Soreal Dental Clinic.
In 2019, the group established Nomel Health Technology (Holding) Co., Ltd. as its holding company. Meanwhile, in order to continue integrating the various upstream and downstream industries of cosmetic medicine, it actively made arrangements for day-to-day beauty clinics and anti-aging organisations. Therefore, in December of that year, Kailing Beauty Resort and Taipei Mendel Anti-Aging Clinic were established.
In 2020, in order to further develop its channels for international medical cooperation, and in addition to signing contracts with the Taiwan Foreign Trade Association, IDEA Association and other public and private organisations, Nobel Medical Group applied to establish Berkeley Health Management Consultation Company and the Taiwan Medical Industries South and Westbound Alliance Association, so as to further expand its influence in the field of big health medical services.
