“Because it’s a convenient and volume based business, these spaces need to be visible and comfortable for these patients to come in and get care,” NGKF retail managing director Benjamin Birnbaum told Crain’s. “It’s a very retail-based model.”
“Unlike other retailers, they have information on where their patients are coming from. The company can deduce where there is a need based on where patients live.”
