Burtonsville, MD (PRWEB) September 17, 2007 -- Lifeclinic International, Inc., will be celebrating the installation of its 4,000th automated blood pressure monitor in a Wal-Mart pharmacy on September 19, 2007, in Lexington, South Carolina. Lifeclinic will be represented by David Read, Senior Vice President, at the grand opening of Wal-Mart's newest South Carolina store, which will serve the Lexington suburb of the greater Columbia area. According to Mr. Read, "This 4,000th monitor benchmark demonstrates Wal-Mart's continued commitment to creating a healthcare destination for the communities they serve. We're honored to be a part of this Wal-Mart pharmacy's grand opening. We receive calls daily from customers thanking us for providing the blood pressure tests at no charge.

Currently, Lifeclinic and Wal-Mart provide over 70 million blood pressure tests annually. About Lifeclinic International, Inc.
