An outpatient clinic is a medical facility where patients receive diagnosis, treatment, and care for medical conditions on an outpatient basis, meaning they do not require an overnight stay. These clinics typically offer a range of services including consultations, examinations, diagnostic tests, and minor procedures. Outpatient clinics can be found within hospitals, private practices, or community health centers, and they play a crucial role in providing accessible and cost-effective healthcare to individuals in need. Research in this area may focus on improving patient outcomes, optimizing clinic operations, and enhancing the overall patient experience in outpatient settings.
