either is OK Explanation: As you have used 'would often' to introduce the phrase, you could even use just 'treat', following on from the existing 'would'; note if you do choose to repeat 'would', it needs to go before the 'sometimes': 'and would sometimes treat'... You might find the sentence flows better if you and in an 'even'; and the 2 instances of 'right' sound a bit clumsy. You may also need to watch out for here / there: your sentnce kind of begs rewording as "That is why a doctor would quite often receive his patients right there in the pharmacy and sometimes treated them on the spot." If the first 'there' is strongly implied, then it could sound awkward to change it to 'here' — unless, for example, this is a spoken commentary and the person is standing on the very blood-stained spot on the floor where they wer treated! |
