"Visited Royal South Hants for dermatology"

About: Southampton General Hospital

I visited Royal South Hants for dermatology for the second time, I was due to be started on medication this visit. The appointment was at 4:50pm and I was prescribed medication as I was told last time would happen- which could only be collected from the pharmacy at Royal South Hants. The pharmacy closed at 5pm, I came out of my appointment at 5:10pm. You would have thought that the pharmacy would be open until all appointments had been completed? I live in the forest and it takes fifty five minutes to get to Royal South Hants and then another fifty five minutes to get back. I am disabled and have to take a taxi there and back. I don't have an appointment to claim for the taxi there and back but how else am I supposed to get the meds? Really poor. Other than this the staff are friendly, little waiting times and felt like I was being listened to. Will contact the cashiers office but please keep the pharmacy open until all appointments have been completed!
