Rapid Expansion Demonstrates Strength of Healthcare Franchise Model

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (May 13, 2025) – American Family Care (AFC), the nation’s leading provider of accessible urgent care, primary care, and occupational medicine, celebrates the opening of its milestone 400th clinic. Located in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, this new state-of-the-art urgent care center showcases AFC’s rapid expansion, with 104 new clinics launched over the past two years alone.

The Camp Hill facility, independently owned by multi-unit franchise operator Daniel Ofosu, represents AFC’s strategic approach to franchise growth: empowering passionate, community-oriented entrepreneurs to meet the increasing demand for accessible and affordable healthcare nationwide.

“The opening of our 400th clinic is a significant achievement for American Family Care. It’s also a powerful validation of the strength of our franchise model,” said Jeremy Morgan, CEO of American Family Care. “Our ongoing expansion reflects the growing need for convenient, high-quality healthcare and demonstrates how AFC’s franchise approach effectively bridges gaps left by traditional healthcare providers.”

AFC’s franchise model offers numerous advantages for healthcare entrepreneurs, including:

• Streamlined Operations: AFC utilizes advanced technology and efficient systems to simplify medical billing, record keeping, and administrative tasks.

• Focus on Quality and Affordability: The AFC model emphasizes providing high-quality healthcare services at competitive prices, attracting patients and driving consistent revenue.

• Multiple Revenue Streams: Franchisees can offer diverse services such as urgent care, minor emergency treatment, and occupational medicine, enhancing revenue opportunities.

• Strong Brand Recognition: AFC is a respected and widely recognized brand in the urgent care industry, providing franchisees with an established customer base and immediate credibility.

• Acquisitions and Conversions: AFC’s growth strategy increasingly includes acquiring and converting existing clinics. The 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) features an extensive conversion guide to assist independent clinic owners looking to join AFC or current owners seeking expansion

Industry data supports the uniqueness of AFC’s milestone. According to analysis from FRANdata, a leading independent franchise research firm, only 6.3% of franchise brands nationwide surpass 400 locations.

“While reaching this scale is relatively common among food franchises, achieving this milestone within the healthcare industry is notably rare and highlights AFC’s innovative and impactful franchise strategy,” said Edith Wiseman, President of FRANdata.

AFC clinics offer comprehensive walk-in urgent care services, pediatric care, digital X-rays, and onsite labs, typically providing quicker and more affordable care compared to traditional hospital emergency rooms.

With continued momentum, AFC remains on track to reach 500 locations by XXXX, driven by strong interest from new and existing franchisees.
