Report
Beware smokers. This doctor will not provide you treatment unless you quit smoking. Her practice. Her prerogative. Right? My reasoning for the negative review is That information is not disclosed prior to sitting with the doctor nor is it mentioned anywhere in a three-page questionnaire new patients are required to fill out prior to seeing her. In other words, you have no way of knowing this information until you are told by the doctor herself.
So, if you are a smoker, its a catch-22. All youre doing is handing over $75 of youre hard earned money to be told you have to quit smoking
