Orth, Pharmacist A QUOTE FROM DEAN GEORGE HAGER In Washington: "The pharmacist performs his professional service for the most part behind the scenes. What the pharmacist actually does what he has the opportunity, and indeed the responsibility, to do with even greater diligence is quite a different thing from what, to the casual observer, he appears to be doing." "What the pharmacist appears to be doing is, perhaps, a function primarily of his manipulative skills. What he actually does many of the morel complex and the more urgently needed professional services he renders usually behind' the scenes, is unquestionably a function of his intellectual skills a function of what he knows."
