Deborah Bowers, PharmD, Owner Yorkville Pharmacy, York, SC

Will consumers pay cash for medication advice?  Deborah Bowers, PharmD proves that they will.  As you know pharmacy owners are all being told to find ways to diversify their practice.  Deborah Bowers is one owner who has taken that advice to heart and set up a cash-pay medication consulting and health coaching business.  In this episode of PharmacyCrossRoads she shares the frustrations she had with people, many not even her customers, who would drop in and ask questions about their medications. 

Bowers says she always tried to help until one day she had an ah-ha moment and decided to be practice and set-up a formal on-line registration and pre-payment system.  Now, when people ask for help, she invites them to go to the web site, review the menu of services and book an appointment. 

You can check out her on-line system at www.yorkvillerx.com  on the top menu bar select – SERVICE – and then select ASK Dr. Deborah.
