Walmart opens three of 18 planned new Texas health centers
Walmart is taking the first steps in an initiative to nearly double the footprint of its Walmart Health format.
Three new Walmart Health centers are now open in Pearland, Sugar Land and Tomball, Texas. These locations are the first of 18 new Walmart Health centers slated to open in Texas during 2024, complementing the existing four sites in the state. Patients can now make appointments at the three new centers.
The remaining 15 new Walmart Health centers in Texas will open throughout the summer and fall. The state-of-the-art facilities are approximately 5,400 square feet, located beside Walmart Supercenters, and will feature a range of health services. These services may vary by location, but include same-day primary care, primary care, dental, behavioral health, labs, X-ray, community health and telehealth.

The Walmart Health centers in Texas will also offer value-based care for eligible senior customers, including annual check-ups, dental cleanings and support managing chronic conditions.
Walmart first announced plans to open 28 new Walmart Health centers during 2024 in March 2023. When complete, the expansion will create a total of more than 75 locations by the end of the year. The expansion will increase Walmart Health’s footprint into two new states — Missouri and Arizona — and also deepen in Texas
Walmart debuted its freestanding health center concept in 2019. Currently, there are 42 Walmart Health locations open across Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois and Texas. In 2023, Walmart Health expanded its presence in Florida, and implemented value-based care in its Florida and Georgia locations to individuals with qualifying Medicare Advantage plans.
