What does this Questionnaire do?

Pharmacies can offer advice and treatment for urinary tract infections (in women), new sinus problems, sore throats, ear infections, infected insect bites, impetigo and shingles, without a GP appointment or prescription.

The questionnaire link is sent via SMS or email. The patient fills in the questionnaire through a browser so they can use their phone, tablet, laptop or desktop to complete it.
