In a rush to get on the retail clinic cash cow, some are expanding too rapidly, with predictable results. It’s really not the best business model to make money:
Industry experts estimate that a company can consume $300,000 to $600,000 to finance a clinic and keep it running until it reaches a break-even point of 25 to 30 patients a day.
And just wait until the first big malpractice suit is filed against them. I wouldn’t buy stock in any of the clinics just yet.
