Customer satisfaction tracking for pharmacies

At the pharmacy, customers expect both fast service and reliable advice. Waiting time, availability of medicines and the pharmacist's attention determine whether a customer returns to the same pharmacy. Comvo measures this experience with short surveys and provides a comparative view for pharmacies with multiple branches.

Key challenges in the industry

  • Waiting time

    When prescriptions pile up, waiting gets longer and customers often turn to another pharmacy.

  • Medicine availability

    An out-of-stock product creates a problem that forces the customer to come back.

  • Advice

    Usage information and product recommendations are an important part of the experience.

  • Dermocosmetics sales

    The quality of advice directly affects sales and loyalty.

Touchpoints to measure

You can create a separate survey for each touchpoint. You decide the questions, scales and question types (star, score, recommendation, choice, open-ended comment) and deliver them at the right moment by QR code, SMS or email.

  • Prescription filling
  • Advice
  • Dermocosmetics and personal care products
  • Checkout
  • Order delivery

Sample survey

Customers answer the survey on their phone without installing an app. Each question opens on its own screen, and a follow-up question about the reason appears automatically after a low score. You can define all questions and steps as you wish and customize the design to match your corporate identity.

  1. 1-5 (CSAT)Customer satisfaction (CSAT), 1-5: 1 is the lowest and 5 the highest satisfaction.
  2. Yes / Partially / NoSingle-choice question; the selected answer can be used as a condition in rules.
  3. 1-51-5 rating scale; a low score indicates a negative experience and can become a case depending on your rules.
  4. Not at all, less than 5 minutes, 5-15 minutes, more than 15 minutesMultiple choice question; used to identify the reason behind a negative experience (root cause).

Questions, scales and conditional logic are tailored to your pharmacy. Responses in the preview are not sent anywhere.

How Does It Work?

  1. 1 A QR code at the till or on the bag opens the survey.
  2. 2 The customer completes the short survey.
  3. 3 A negative response is forwarded to the pharmacist as a case.
  4. 4 Product availability issues feed into stock planning.
  5. 5 In chains, branches are compared with the same criteria.

Sample alert rules

  • If satisfaction is 2 or lower, a case is assigned to the pharmacist with a 24-hour resolution time.
  • "No" answers to the product question are listed separately in the weekly report.
  • A 1-3 star Google review is opened as a case for the pharmacist.

In these examples, a low score means 2 or below on a 1-5 scale, 6 or below on the 0-10 recommendation score and 1-3 stars in online reviews. You set the thresholds and resolution times.

Metrics to track

  • Satisfaction and waiting

    You track perceived waiting time by day and hour.

  • Stock-related issues

    You see how often customers report a product was not available.

  • Quality of advice

    You measure information scores.

  • Google rating

    You track the pharmacy's online reputation.

Frequently asked questions

Can it be used for a single pharmacy?

Yes. A single pharmacy can also be defined as an organization structure; in chains, branches are separate units.

Is customer data required?

No. QR surveys are anonymous and the survey does not ask for medicine or prescription information. Anonymous responses also become cases and are used for improvements at the pharmacy; however, the customer can be contacted only if they choose to leave contact details.

How long does the survey take?

A survey of three or four questions is usually completed in under half a minute.
