Molina Healthcare: Origins

The whole family launched the business, with Mario, Joseph, John and three sisters working at the first three clinics. They were expected to help out so they worked the reception desk, painted buildings, cleaned, washed windows and did anything that needed to be done, other than seeing patients. Mario however did eventually see patients, after qualifying as a doctor.
