I'm considering opening my first pod clinic and i was wondering how important it is to have a clinic near public transport?

Does anyone think this is important for senior patients?

If someone could help me with a few words of wisdom that would be cool.

Cheers, Jen

Good luck with your new adventure Jenny.

I found that access to the clinic is important but not just about travelling on public transport for treatment.

One of our local Podiatrist was located up a short flight of stairs.
After a time I had calls from their ageing patients or family members asking me about my access.
They wanted to know how easy it was to get into my clinic if they were using a walking aid or in a wheelchair.
They had to leave this Podiatrist for one reason only. . . they could not manage the stairs anymore.
Great for me as my doorway is flat on the ground and level with the footpath.

The other clinic finally moved to a more suitable location.
Think about your surroundings too.

Elaine
