Changing my surgeon and need a full refund, am I entitled to it?

February 8, 2016
Asked By:Ariel1121 in Chicago, IL

I booked a breast augmentation with a non-board certified surgeon (oops) in New York for March 21st. They told me to book an appointment I needed to pay in full (is this normal?). I canceled it 2 weeks ago, they told me I am only able to get 70% of the total surgery amount. I needed to sign 2 documents but was unable to send it. Since I canceled it 7-8 weeks before surgery and they do not have my signature agreeing to anything, am I entitled to the full amount?
