He will then confirm your problem and recommend treatment....................all in about 5-10 minutes! No appointment necessary! This is ESPECIALLY useful for those people who insist on visiting the doctor when they get a slight cough or some sniffling (Grrrrr).
I don't know exactly how this is different than now, just that you don't have to get out of your car. These drive through windows would have to be staffed, but those same staff would be more effective in a clinic anyway.
