Jack Nathan Health® Opens New Hybrid Medical Walk-in Clinic, Kelowna, BC, Inside Walmart

Jack Nathan Medical Corp. (TSXV:JNH) (“Jack Nathan Health” “JNH” or the “Company”) a provider of primary care medical clinics located in Walmart^® Supercentres under the Jack Nathan Health^® brand, today announced the opening of a new multi-disciplinary medical centre in Kelowna, BC. The Company has 76 clinics nationally including 18 clinics in British Columbia, with their next clinic opening in Thornhill, Ontario later this month.

The clinic, located in the Walmart Supercentre at 1555 Banks Road in Kelowna, will offer family medicine and walk-in services to patients seven days a week. Patients will be seen in person through family physician or via in-clinic telemedicine powered by the Company’s Telemedicine partner.

5 million Canadians do not have regular access to a doctor¹, and that lack of accessibility results in oversaturated ERs. Jack Nathan Health, is helping resolve this through its installation of medical clinics in Walmarts in high-density areas across Canada, as well as providing telemedicine and remote patient care through its virtual platform in response to the Coronavirus pandemic.

JNH is incorporating ancillary medical services and digital strategies to drive patient engagement and convenience.

In response to the Coronavirus pandemic, the Company accelerated the launch of its virtual platform offering patient care remotely and moved up its launch of telemedicine services, making the technology available to all service providers in the Jack Nathan Health network.

George Barakat, CEO of Jack Nathan Health, said, “Our Multi-disciplinary medical centres are designed to offer a broader range of virtual telemedicine and allied health services offering patients “one-stop” convenience and a more holistic approach to their overall care.”

The location in Walmart® offers patients convenient local access to an onsite pharmacy, as well as grocery shopping and other essential household goods. Medical patients will be able to meet with clinic staff, register to see a doctor, and shop while they wait.

These new larger format clinics are intended to offer a broader range of services. Other services offered across our family of clinics range from; physiotherapy, chiropractic, foot care, weight loss, dietician, diagnostic and lab services, all under one roof. With this opening, the Company will have 76 clinics in six Canadian provinces, including British Colombia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec.
