Publix Closing ‘Little Clinic” Retail Medical Clinics
40 clinics within Publix grocery stores in Florida and Georgia still operated under the name The Little Clinic but are no longer owned by Little Clinic and are being closed out. This entails 40 locations and Publix has not stated what they are going to do with the space yet. Retail clinics seem to do better in a drug store atmosphere than being in a grocery or other type of setting. Little Clinic still has retail locations open and alive in other states and many Kroger stores still house them.
