Good idea....I have to go to the doctors next month for a script.....will be waiting outside....they can come & get me. Waiting room is small & crowded....not worth the risk.

I need repeat scripts.

 

Means seeing the doc in the next week or so.

 

Very large waiting room, usually chockers full of people waiting for about 15 or so doctors.

 

I'll have to find an empty corner, at least 6 feet away from anybody.

 

Not looking forward to it.

Ring 'em before  hand 'n ask how late the dr is running 

can you not order ahead of time (and just pick up)....or do you have to SEE the doctor?

 My local dr, wont write script without a consultation

No doctor will write a script, even a repeat without seeing the patient.

 

Part of the Medicare deal, and...  they want their money.

 

They don't work for nothing.

Some do, some dont    ......

He leaves the script at the desk.

 

Given - it's just a repeat.
