clinic

Walk-in treatment center

A clinic is a medical facility smaller than a hospital, typically focused on outpatient care or specialized treatment: a dental clinic, an urgent care clinic, a fertility clinic.

The word extends to instructional sessions where experts demonstrate techniques: a basketball clinic, a writing clinic.

When someone dominates a competition so thoroughly it becomes educational, they're said to have put on a clinic.
