only god knows how many fatalities could be attributed to their handwriting. what's worse is that they do it on purpose... they think it's the way a doc oughta write .. I wonder where they've dumped their brains dunno

dunno
I personally believe Doctors write like that so nobody can forge their prescriptions.
Oh my, frustrated That's why the read back/clarify policy and procedures in health care institutions are being formulated.

yes its the old school way, a mixture of shorthand, and Latin, the chemist can read it, that's all that matters. nerd
