DEERFIELD, Ill. — Walgreens continues to expand in the primary care market. Its majority-owned VillageMD unit on Friday announced a deal to acquire Starling Physicians, a multispecialty medical group operating over 30 locations in Connecticut.
In addition to primary care, Starling Physicians offers a range of services that includes cardiology, ophthalmology, endocrinology, nephrology, and senior care.
“Starling shares our vision of being a physician-led model and they provide care in a compassionate and exceptional way to all the patients they serve,” VillageMD chairman and chief executive officer Tim Barry said. “This is a natural extension of our growth in the Northeast, including our recent acquisition of Summit Health-CityMD.”
The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
