Congratulations.

But, hope this trend does not seep in to the community where every GP practice will have a supermarket PHARMACY attached, in the name of patient care.

I work 5 minutes away from a hospital, approximately a third of our scripts come from the walk-in centre. Putting a community pharmacy into the hospital would decimate our business. There is only so much business to go around.
