Shindler’s Drug Store is located in a coastal
town in Oregon. The store runs with a staff of
one pharmacist and two to three technicians.
According to the owner, Steve Wilson, the staff
was “uncomfortable” because they kept a hectic
pace all day long and had little time to talk with
customers. Steve needed more
time in the day to provide the
friendly service that kept his
customers coming back to
his store.

He looked at adding either
robotics or counting
technology to the dispensing
process, selecting ScriptPro’s
SP 100™ Robotic Prescription Dispending System.
According to Steve, “When we examined the
time it takes to fill a prescription with counting
technology, we determined that we really wouldn’t
save any time. The SP 100 performs a more
complete process and the benefits of robotic
technology will take us further into the future than
counting technology.”
“The SP 100 has done everything we thought it
would do to free up my time. I can leave work
45 minutes to an hour earlier
than I used to,” Steve said.“Prescription volumes are
going up and we wouldn’t
have been able to handle them
without the SP 100.”
As he says, “ScriptPro has been
in business for awhile and the
basic system has been used in
the field for years, so we knew we wouldn’t have a
problem with reliability.”
“The personnel at ScriptPro are great. Every person
we talk to is knowledgeable and helpful.”
