What This Means for Sydney Pharmacies

Pharmacies balance short consultations with long waits for prescription fulfillment. Digital queues help staff separate the two types of customers (consultation vs pickup) and notify pickup customers when their script is ready โ€” measured 12% cancellation mostly comes from customers leaving to run errands.
