John Wayne Airport (SNA) has partnered with regional health-care delivery network Hoag on a new initiative: the Fly Well Clinic, a first-of-its-kind in-terminal health care facility offering travelers services such as office visits, telehealth consultations, immunizations, treatment of cold and flu symptoms and prescriptions.
The 850-square-foot Fly Well Clinic will open in spring 2021 and feature an onsite licensed health care provider offering treatment of cold and flu symptoms, rapid COVID-19 testing, vaccinations such as flu shots, on-demand telehealth appointments and virtual reality demonstrations on relaxation and mindfulness.
“As the highest-ranked health care provider in Orange County, Hoag is uniquely positioned to address our guests’ specific health care needs, as well as the needs of the nearly 900 people who work at the airport,” said Barry Rondinella, SNA director. “We are excited by what the Fly Well Clinic will mean to airport guests, employees and tenants.”
In advance of the official opening next spring, Hoag will host a Pop-up Health Fair at SNA this week. Located across from Gate 10 in Terminal B (post-security), the pop-up clinic will offer travelers complimentary flu vaccinations and screenings, nutrition and exercise tips for travelers, virtual reality health demonstrations and more.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world’s travel habits, shining a spotlight brighter than ever on passengers’ health and travel safety,” said Robert Braithwaite, Hoag president and CEO. “Hoag is proud to partner with John Wayne Airport to address the health care needs of the 10 million people who fly to or from the airport every year.”
