Want to attract more male patients to your practice? Buy a truck:
The last thing Howard Chipman thought he’d be noticed for is having the biggest truck in town.
The 1970 Army truck parked in the shopping plaza off Tampa Road and Forest Lakes Boulevard attracts attention for his walk-in clinic.
He bought the truck for $5,500 off the Internet and found that it especially catches the eye of male patients, who typically don’t like going to the doctor.
“They think the doctor might be cool,” said Chipman, 43.
