Successful Expansion in a Rural Community
The decision to open a second clinic in Franklinton, Louisiana, stemmed from realizing that many patients were traveling considerable distances to receive care. Jay Schultz was prompted by community suggestions and the understanding that there was a demand for quality healthcare within the town, despite its small population of over 3,500. He emphasized that Franklinton already housed an outpatient clinic and a hospital clinic, which validated the need for a new facility. After opening the new clinic, it experienced remarkable growth, reporting a nearly 20% increase in patients within the first year.
