So I go to the dermatologist today

because my hormones are going crazy and I've been breaking out. After she prescribes me this and that she looks at my face and tells me I could use some botox between the eyes (I really didn't think I looked THAT bad), and if I do it right then and there it will "only" be $350 (because she already had an open vial), or else if I come another time it will be $500.

I just turned 40 last week so she really hit a sensitive "aging" issue with me. Besides that fact I hate when Dr.'s (actually she is a PA) act like salespeople!!!!!!!!!

Ewwe...yeah that would have turned me off too.

I would blow her off the next time she offers it to you. I am sure you look great!

Re: So I go to the dermatologist today

She really bothered me. I would be the first to say "wow, I really need a shot of botox" - but things really aren't that bad yet. I'm more anxious to clear up the pimples. Besides the fact - hello - it's 4 days before Christmas - like I have any extra money laying around for this!

Re: So I go to the dermatologist today

Are you f*cking kidding me...I would have said, "Can I give you a shot in the a$$?" First I hate dr's who push unnecessary treatments, especially one that "give you a price break" b/c she has an open vile. I would never go back there.

Chat Icon very unprofessional

she probably used that line on every patient over 18 until one relented and she used up the vial Chat Icon

yeah, I wouldn't go back. It proves that dr's motivation is profit, not patient care
