Health care at Meijer
April 14, 2006Apparently now you can get health care for minor injuries, allergies, etc. at a few of the local Meijer stores. There is a little blurb about the newly opened health clinics on one of our local news channel’s website which I ran across while checking out the weather for Easter (not as nice as I hoped but slightly less risk of rain which is good).
I’m not sure what I think about this. Certainly gets across the point of “one-stop” shopping and it sounds like they are working in conjunction with a local hospital but all in all, I think I prefer my health care to be done in a health care setting, such as a doctors’ office or hospital. I should think the liability of having such a clinic on site (even if it is not run by Meijer itself) would be quite high and Meijer prides itself on “low prices”.
So now, you too can get your Starbucks coffee, your hair cut, your child’s picture taken, your groceries and that cough that has been bugging you checked out all in one place…
