Paige Alexandra West says her iboga retreat screens EKGs and turns people away

What was said

"we are simply not afraid to say no. No is sacred. It's a complete sentence. And there might be a no or not right now or a yellow light or a pretty straightforward green light."

Paige Alexandra West says her iboga retreat, Aario, screens prospective participants by reviewing EKGs (including QTc), bloodwork, medical history and medication use, followed by further conversations. She says some applicants who look suitable “on paper” are still refused, and argues commercial pressure to fill beds can weaken safety decisions.
