Pharmacists confused about their job
It is interesting to see that AI gave them a good re-view. But then AI does not expect to get medication.
I am writing this to explain the experiences I have had with the Clicks Pharmacy at the Netcare Medicross Clinic in Randburg. The Head Pharmacist and his juniors appear very reluctant to dispense medication. Both over the counter and doctor prescriptions. The Head Pharmacist told me that he knows more than doctors and has refused to fill a script which a Dischem Pharmacy and a different Clicks Pharmacy has filled. This means I have experienced this more than once. In a different scenario, one of the Pharmacy assistants said the script had expired. In thisinstance the script had been written out the previous day, and was this a day old. As far as I am aware the date the script is written does not expire the same day. Based on the reluctance to dispense medication I have stopped going to Medicross Randburg and I will never go to this pharmacy again. Apart from the refusal to dispense their attitude is overbearing and arrogant. I am not sure how you would handle such a situation. In my opinion if someone is unwilling to do the job they should look for another opportunity in which they would or could perform willingly. I understand a pharmacist offering information if requested, and this is appreciated, however, I do not want them to try and fulfill the role of a qualified Doctor.
