ROBBINSDALE, Minn. — Hy-Vee announced Thursday that it would be placing retail clinics in two new Twin Cities-area stores opening in September. For the clinics in the New Hope and Oakdale stores, Hy-Vee has teamed with North Memorial Health Care, whose physician assistants and nurses will staff the North Memorial Express Clinics.


“We are excited to bring together these two respected brands to offer easy access to affordable and convenient care,” Kelly Macken-Marble, North Memorial Health Care president of population health and ambulatory services. “This is a natural partnership since both Hy-Vee and North Memorial are focused on innovative ways that make getting and staying healthy easier. These two walk-in clinics are another way that North Memorial is expanding services that lead to better health.”


Like at other retail clinics, the North Memorial Express clinic will accept walk-in patients and appointments for patients with ear infections, the flu and other common ailments, as well as wellness tests and health screenings. The clinics are part of Hy-Vee’s plan to bring health and wellness offerings to the Twin Cities through new store openings, with four or five new stores planned each year for the next few years.


“With the North Memorial Express Clinics in our newOakdale and New Hope stores, our customers will not only have access to our in-store dietitians and pharmacists, but now they will be able to seek health, wellness and preventive care services all in one stop," Hy-Vee EVP, vice chairman and chief administrative officer Andy McCann said. “We are excited to partner with North Memorial so that we can continue to help our customers lead happier, healthier lives.”
