A polyclinic is a clinic that provides both general and specialist examinations and treatments to outpatients and is usually independent of a hospital. Polyclinics include:
- Polyclinics in England, large health care centres able to provide a wider range of services than a standard doctor's (GP) office
- The Polyclinic, in Seattle, Washington, US
See also
- Outpatient department of a hospital (rarely called policlinic in American English, and only when referring to European hospital outpatient departments)
- General hospital; when a polyclinic is so large that it is in fact a hospital, it is also called a general hospital.[1]
