Competence or Coincidence?

I've blogged before about my GP's inability to create repeat prescriptions for me without errors. I took a repeat prescription request in on Monday and went to collect the prescription this morning, expecting to find that they'd done it all wrong again.

To my surprise, when I got it I found that everything seemed to be in order. I suppose he had to get it right eventually! The doctor had put down every item I'd asked for (even the one his computer said wasn't due until April) and prescribed an 84-day supply of each.

I then cycled straight to the Pharmacy to get the prescription filled (having remembered to take my HC2 certificate with me, so I wouldn't have to pay).

When I handed the prescription over, I told the pharmacist that the GP seemed to have managed to get it right first time, but she soon found an error - he hadn't specified the type of Aspirin.
