    Typical response from DD practice. They only bother about profit. We bother about pts. Worst case was in Wales where DD requested pharmacy to deliver an item to a pt in atrocious weather. Reward? Not a script for it, but replacement of the item. ie Lot of work but not a penny of profit.

    If only pharmacy could have great public image like the GPs.

    Anyway, now working my ticket until retirement.

    Same here. Everytime I check I'm always at the top of the league.
    I'm always at the bottom as well but hey who cares, it's my league.
