Make sure you have a detailed understanding of this sector before you start. Obtaining a unique understanding of the problems of retail pharmacists can take years to gain the necessary experience – the new contract, the claw back of discounts, the emphasis on services such as non-smoking sessions and medicine use review.
You should expect accountants to understand your pharmacy business and deliver same high-level cost-effective services as you do for your customers, who, with a prescription in their hand, need to be handled with understanding and compassion.
Cartwrights experience in retail pharmacy and the many pharmacists we work with provides us with a unique understanding and the credentials to address and solve the problems that pharmacists face.
