Description:

Ever spent four hours in a waiting room just for a two-minute prescription? Or worse, woken up with a painful UTI on a Sunday only to find every GP clinic in town closed?

The "Great Divide" between doctors and pharmacists is finally crumbling. In this essential update, Mario Baroni (President of the Pharmacy Guild NSW) breaks down the game-changing shift in Australian healthcare for 2026. Pharmacists are moving beyond the counter and into the consulting room, gaining the power to prescribe for up to 23 common conditions—from ear infections and skin issues to the contraceptive pill and hypertension.

Listen to John Stanley live on air from 8pm Monday to Thursday and 7pm on Friday on 2GB Sydney and 4BC Brisbane
