Right across from the office was a mom and pop pharmacy and he would regularly call over when he wanted input on dosing or alternatives and the pharmacist gave more than one heads up about drug seekers.

What business is it of anybody's?<br /><br />FWIW, I have no complaints about my current pharmacists (although I am not pleased by the fact that there have been fewer and fewer people working in the pharmacy over time while the number of people using that pharmacy has seemed, based on the number of bags of meds waiting to be picked up, to increase significantly), but I think I'd be very lucky to have you as a pharmacist. I'd like to think that quite a few of your patients understand how lucky they are and just don't realize that it would be nice to say something.<br /><br />I really hope that if my alcoholic mother is ever prescribed Vicodin or a similar medication, her pharmacist recognizes and at least comments on the issue. Maybe the people who love Mr. Drunktooth are as unaware that they have a reason to be grateful to you as the people at the dentist's office appear to be, but because I love my mom, I'm glad for your attention to detail.CMnoreply@blogger.com
