A Health Hub That Puts Care at the Heart of Access
What did we do?
Partnered with Walmart to reimagine the retail health experience, designing a centralized, full-service hub that seamlessly integrates healthcare into the everyday shopping journey for Canadian customers.
Seamlessly brought together pharmacy, medical, dental, and vision services within the existing footprint—enhanced by OTC and food-as-medicine offerings that blur the line between retail and care
Developed customer-centric experience strategies based on deep persona research and insight-led workshops
Built a flexible, tech-enabled environment to deliver convenience, education, and ongoing community engagement
