He issued a Rx for a compounded mixture.
The pharmacy he recommended and sent the Rx to quoted a price of $143.31
I checked with Braselton Pharmacy and their quoted price for the same Rx was $85.00
I thought you should know this so that your patients get the products you want them to have at a good price.
Accordingly , I was disappointed with the pharmacy you sent the Rx to .i saved 40% of the cost by using Braselton Pharmacy .
Accordingly I did not give you a less than 5 star review because I am sure you thought the pharmacy you were referring me to offered competitive pricing .”
