Chemist Locums are they any Good ( no )

We went to pick up our supplies again today and wondered what the Chemist Lottery would bring us.
Surprise Surprise not everything that we required again.
They seem to have problems getting our Paediasure 500ml ready to hang bottles, or should I say they get bottles, but they are Paediasure Plus which is not his prescription for that amount.
They also don't seem to be able to supply the right quantity of Trimethoprim, giving us 30mls instead of 100mls.
Maybe once getting it wrong would be passaable, but to consistently getting it wrong is beyond a joke. The last order we picked up the day we went on holiday and it was just lucky that we had enough to cover the 4 days away.
As we seem to be tied to this chemist by the GP's we shall have to talk to them.
Just like to say that we never had a problem before the Locums.

Hi!

Another familiar problem!

You are not tied to any chemist and can pick up your prescription and take it wherever you like!

I would again urge you to contact your Primary Care Trust and ask that they sort out a hospital to home service contract so you can have all of Geoff's feed and supplies delivered each month after one simple phone call to order it!

I would also say the PCT PALS department will take up any concerns about a pharmacy or any other "community care" type services on your behalf if there is any ongoing issues.

They are totally negligent to be giving the wrong feed and also the incorrect quantities of anything!

Hope this is sorted soon!

How is the purple syringe issue there now?
