E-drug: Dispensing Doctors Monitor article (cont'd)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear all,
Following on to Richard Laing's contribution, there is the same
argument in the UK on this subject, and I believe it has been raging
since pharmacy practice became a separate service. I would
therefore not be surprised if (private practice) physicians in
Commonwealth countries follow the same practice as the UK, where
dispensing doctors in outlaying areas (or where there is no pharmacy
within reasonable distance) can be found. At the end of the day,
finding the best health service for a community is what health policy
should be aiming at.
Regards,
