What happened in Q4 and FY21 for WELL stock?
The investments WELL stock has been making into its business seem to be paying off big time, according to its recent earnings report.

Furthermore, its acquisitions of CRH Medical and MyHealth, among others, led it to take on a leadership position in Canada, and it could hopefully do so soon the United States.
