Healthcare professionals in the East Valley have a new go-to resource for gearing up and feeling fashion-forward while committing each day to caring for others. Scrubs & Beyond, the largest omnichannel retailer of healthcare apparel and accessories in the country, is expanding its service to Valley healthcare workers with the opening of a new brick-and-mortar store in Mesa.
Scrubs & Beyond, a 20-year veteran of the healthcare apparel industry recently acquired by Kindthread, is dedicated to serving healthcare professionals by offering a vast selection of stylish products and outstanding customer service to those in the business of helping others. The retailer operates 114 stores across the U.S., as well as a robust digital marketplace that accommodates individual orders, group orders, custom embroidery requests and more.
“Understanding and catering to the needs of those who work in healthcare is the foundation of Scrubs & Beyond,” said Angela Mahoney, Head of Stores for Scrubs & Beyond. “Our brands and product lines are selected specifically for their comfort and durability that stand up to the big demands of a healthcare professional’s job. At the same time, we celebrate the intersection of functionality and fashion, giving healthcare heroes the ability to showcase their personal style and look as great as they feel.”
From classic scrub pants and tops to lab coats, jackets, shoes and more, Scrubs & Beyond raises the bar for fashion in the healthcare industry. The new store will feature many of the retailer’s best sellers, including super-functional joggers (so trendy they’re even a hit outside the industry) and options that allow fashion-conscious men to feel confident and comfortable on the job. Other popular items include scrub pants with inspirational messages in the waistbands; compression socks in fun and vibrant patterns such as tie dye; accessories like t-shirts to layer under scrub tops and Scrubs & Beyond’s own private label line, Beyond Scrubs.
However, as its Scrubs Club members know, shopping at Scrubs & Beyond isn’t just about finding top-of-the line, in-demand apparel. It’s also an experience where healthcare workers feel appreciated and understood. Enhancing the customer experience has been a major focus of bringing this new store to life. Aside from store associates’ vast product knowledge – many of Scrubs & Beyond associates are healthcare professionals themselves. Scrubs & Beyond is committed to offering a full-service shopping experience to help determine customer’s needs, such as assisting with personal shopping, offering embroidery services and sharing information about special fitting events.
Beyond offering an expansive selection of colors in the latest on-trend styles and collections from the industry’s most popular brands, Scrubs & Beyond is sizing inclusive with most garments offered in men’s and women’s sizes XS to 3X. Some products offer extended sizes including XXS and 4X to 6X, as well as Petite, Short and Tall pant options.
In addition to creating exceptional experiences for healthcare workers updating their own work wardrobes in-store, Scrubs & Beyond also works closely with many leading healthcare facilities and providers in the Valley to serve their scrub and uniform needs.
The new 4,000-square-foot retail space, located at 833 N. Dobson Road in Mesa (between West Rio Salado Parkway and the 202), joins three existing Valley locations in Gilbert, North Phoenix and Peoria.
“As the East Valley population continues to experience steady growth, so does the number of healthcare workers who live and work in the area,” said Mike Vermilion, Chief Commerce Officer at Kindthread. “At Kindthread, we’re eager to share our passion for delivering innovative products and memorable experiences with the healthcare and service professionals via the Scrubs & Beyond brand, which healthcare professional have known and trusted for more than two decades.”
For over 20 years, Scrubs & Beyond has offered fashion-forward products and outstanding customer service. Seeing an opportunity to raise the bar and provide a transformative experience catering to discerning healthcare professionals, Scrubs & Beyond has grown its business to become the largest retailer of healthcare apparel and accessories in the country. With the acquisition of Uniform City and Life Uniform companies in 2013, Scrubs & Beyond currently operates 114 stores in 30 states nationwide and is one of the largest scrubs-based ecommerce businesses with a relentless focus on customer experience.
