I saw a local one advertised on nextdoor and I went to the site because there are rules for advertisers on that app and I wanted to complain. It is exactly as I'd heard-- telling people there's no reason to be seen quickly and will not be given appointment within two weeks, calling themselves a clinic but no statement of any medical service. But they said so little about what they actually do that I couldn't find any good grounds for complaint to the app as also the app's own content categories, "health" or something, was too vague to be considered misleading. I complained anyway that they were promoting pseudo medicine and political activity, but didn't get a reply.
