The Henry Ford Health System has opened a 'healthcare boutique' urgent care clinic that offers smartphone scheduling, virtual consultations, health concierges and wellness services including acupuncture, according to an article on the Daily Detroit website.
The clinic's online reservations and appointment adjustments via text offerings were sparked by surveys and focus groups with area Millennials and Gen X patients, said William Conway, MD and CEO of the Henry Ford Medical Group.
“These are two generations constantly on the go that are empowered by digital technology, and want care that is convenient and affordable,” Conway said.
The clinic's front lobby features the building’s original tile floor and brick walls along with Midcentury-style couches and finishes in black and gray. The clinic is located in the historic Grinnell Building that once housed the Grinnell Brothers Music House.
