    A clinic (or outpatient clinic or ambulatory care clinic) is a health facility that is primarily focused on the care of outpatients. Clinics can be privately operated or publicly managed and funded. They typically cover the primary care needs of populations in local communities, in contrast to larger hospitals which offer more specialized treatments and admit inpatients for overnight stays.

    Most commonly, the English word clinic refers to a general practice, run by one or more general practitioners offering small therapeutic treatments, but it can also mean a specialist clinic. Some clinics retain the name “clinic” even while growing into institutions as large as major hospitals or becoming associated with a hospital or medical school.

    A clinic is a place, not a group of people.

    I’m pretty sure google will still have your house number associated with your house. You’re just making it harder for people to be sure they’re at the right house when they show up there, like if you fell or choked on your meal and needed an ambulance.
