1Opinion of the CourtDykman, P.J.
St. Clare Hospital of Monroe, Wisconsin, Inc. (St. Clare) appeals from a judgment declaring that its new clinic building is not exempt from 1993 property taxes and dismissing its action against the City of Monroe to recover property taxes paid under protest. St. Clare argues that the property on which the tax was assessed was exempt from taxation under § 70.11(4m)(a), Stats. We conclude that the property was "used as a doctor's office," and as such was not exempt. We therefore affirm.
