Workplace & Retail Clinic Bulletin October 2016

"As more than 90% of Americans live within 10 miles of a Walmart store, we're committed and uniquely positioned to provide accessible and affordable healthcare that helps busy families live better. These screenings provide customers with a basic yet vital understanding of their general health conditions and ways to improve them."
-George Riedl, Senior VP and President of health and wellness for Walmart U.S.

"Between 2007 and 2009, retail clinic use in the US increased tenfold and a third of retail visits for children are for sore throats."
