Beaumont Health System has opened its first retail health clinic inside a Meijer store in Royal Oak, with plans to add more clinics across the state.
The Beaumont FastCare clinic will offer quick and convenient health care services and treatments for minor conditions and symptoms, including sports physicals, vaccinations, sore throats, fevers, flu and colds, ear and sinus infections, pink eye, skin rashes, allergies, and more.
“This clinic will serve the needs of today’s busiest families by providing high quality health care at an affordable cost,” says Theresa Peters, vice president of outpatient services for the Beaumont Medical Group.
Beaumont FastCare, located at 5150 Coolidge Hwy., will serve adults and children, age 3 and older. It accepts most insurance and office visit co-pays apply. For those with a high deductible plan or no insurance, a FastCare visit is $77, which includes basic lab tests.
Beaumont FastCare will accept walk-in patients only, and wait times are expected to be minimal, Peters says. In addition, medications will be available through immediate transmittal of prescriptions to the Meijer pharmacy or the pharmacy of the patient’s choice.
Henry Ford Health System has also recently opened a clinic, called the Henry Ford QuickFix clinic along Woodward Ave. in downtown Detroit. The clinic offers traditional services to treat common illnesses such as ear infections, the flu, sore throats, and upper respiratory infections.
