The ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ President of the Pharmacy Guild of Australia, George Tambassis, has expressed his sorrow at the death of Dr Harry Nespolon, President of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.
Mr Tambassis said Dr Nespolon was a strong and committed advocate for general practice and for the health of all patients.
“He was unflinching in his determination to get the best outcomes for members of his organisation, and through them the best possible results for patients across Australia,” Mr Tambassis said.
“He would not take a backward step when prosecuting a position that he felt was in the best interests of all Australians and the general practitioners he represented, but he did so with courtesy and respect.
“He made a huge contribution to the medical and healthcare sector in this country and he will be sadly missed.
“My thoughts and those of members of the Pharmacy Guild are with his family.”
