Dr took plenty of time with my son, listened, spent time deciding on best type of meds so as not to interfere with school.
Was quite insistent that I opted for electronic prescription which do not suit me. All in all a very helpful
Consultation

Response from Dr Shanker Vijayadeva
Glad you found it a helpful consultation. Sorry if I was a bit too insistent on electronic prescriptions. General Practice handle an ever increasing number of prescriptions. The electronic prescription system can save a lot of workload (e.g. filing/replacing lost prescriptions) but also can be safer (less errors in transferring information) and more convenient (pharmacist gets prescription earlier so can start to order it/prepare it as soon as they receive it). However I will take your feedback on board and try to be less insistent to encourage the use the electronic prescription service! Thank you for taking the time to leave me your feedback.
