This is again another doctor that takes advantage of the lack of medical facilities in this city and tries to exploit as much money as he can. Overbooking appointments and charging just as much. If that was not enough they charge debit/credit card users an additional 10 dollars. The area that holds your prescription charges also ten dollars to request a copy.

I immediately regretted the decision as soon as I saw the ridiculous amount
