Following up on yesterday’s reporting, Field Trip Health has taken the next step and confirmed the closing of five of its treatment clinics.
Field Trip Health will close clinics in Chicago, Washington DC, Seattle, San Diego and Fredericton. The anticipated last day of operation will be around April 15, 2023.
This news comes in the same week as Ketamine Wellness Centers, one of the largest ketamine therapy providers in the US, announcing it has also closed its clinic operations.
Is the treatment clinic model dying? Or is it just in the need of restructuring?
