How do patients feel about physicians dispensing medications?
Patients overwhelmingly appreciate being able to have their prescriptions filled at their physician’s office. The fundamental element for patient satisfaction with in-office dispensing is the added convenience and elimination of going to a pharmacy and waiting for a prescription to be filled. One-stop shopping is a prevalent trend in the retail industry. In-office medication dispensing is just another aspect of this trend. For patients receiving prescriptions they consider embarrassing, patient privacy is a significant benefit.
