1. A phage dispensing apparatus comprising:
a computing apparatus comprising one or more processors, a memory, and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and confiured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs are configured to cause the one or more processors to receive information over a network from a remote computing device regarding a patient and a phage mixture treatment for the patient specifying one or more phages based on a phage-host sensitivity profile;
a storage portion comprising a plurality of vials containing different phages, wherein each vial contains at least one phage;
a dispensing portion; and
one or more robotic systems controlled by the computing apparatus and configured to remove one or more vials containing the one or more phages specified by the phage mixture treatment from the storage portion to the dispensing portion to dispense one or more pharmaceutically acceptable doses of the phage mixture treatment, wherein the computing apparatus, storage portion, dispensing portion, and one or more robotic systems are at a treatment location of the patient.
