Walgreens continues to roll out clinics

DEERFIELD - Walgreens Boots Alliance and VillageMD continue to expand their network of medical clinics opening in Walgreens pharmacies and stores.

The partners said three new Village Medical at Walgreens primary care practices will open in the southern part of New Hampshire by the end of this summer, with the first opening on April 19 in Hooksett. Additional locations will open in Manchester and Nashua.

The drugstores and primary care practices will create more than 80 full-time jobs and employ more than 35 medical professionals, such as physicians, nurse practitioners and medical assistants.

"Combining VillageMD's expertise in primary care with Walgreens experienced pharmacy teams and community presence means we're now able to offer more patients an accessible, comprehensive and convenient health care experience," Jeffrey Corbett, a Village Medical primary care physician with more than 12 years of experience in New Hampshire.

VillageMD and Walgreens will have opened approximately 100 practices across 13 markets, including Arizona, Florida, Texas, Kentucky and Indiana. The companies are on track to open more than 200 practices by the end of 2022.
