Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Leonard, The telephone number that you have for the San Diego Clinic (SDC) needs to be updated. The number to use is 011-52-66-46-83-13-98. About a year ago Mexico changed its telephone codes and digits were added. Another SDC telephone to try is (619)571-6560. It might be cheaper to try that one. The best times to call would be weekdays between 9AM to 2PM PST. If you get a recording I suggest that you call again later rather than leave a message. My telephone number at the Center for the Study of Natural Oncology is (858) 523-9144. Sincerely, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many excellent places not listed below.
