As much as Dr's preach about stopping smoking, this facility refused to write a prescription for Chantix.
They lost out on 40 dollars as well as any future visits from me.

Although I had very little wait, I feel I get far better care, understanding and compassion from my primary care doctor, and it is cheaper with my insurance. I felt it a waste of time going there except I received a tetanus shot and an EKG. On the few times I have been there it's been possibly "urgent", once, at night or on a week-end, and I saw a PA (who seems fresh out of school). I pay the same regardless, and I'm charged for a "specialist" office visit plus an "after hours" charge. I'm thankful to have insurance. At least it wasn't an "ER Co Pay," with a 4-6 hour wait like at the ER. I by chance learned they owed me a $35 credit from improper billing from a prior visit after I asked them for a copy of my encounter form. When I asked why they didn't deduct that amount at that office visit I was told they usually give it back after 3 months. Well it had been over 5 months since I last saw them. I had just paid them $40 and requested a return of the money. I was told a doctor had to authorize it first then it would be sent within the next few weeks. I said Oh no! I want it this week if I have to come and get it. They expected payment at the time of the exam. I deserved repayment sooner than their policy. Three days later they called me saying a check was ready and they would mail it, I said no I would come and get it just in case it "got lost in the mail." Had I not noticed the credit, I don't know when I may have seen the refund. People...be sure to read your encounter forms no matter where you go, and ask questions if you don't understand something.
