Was my crown done properly? It feels slanted and as if its sticking out. (photo)

My permanent crown LR6 molar looks like my previous tooth, which had chipped and missing side. I thought it will be reconstructed and will look normal. When I slide my tongue I can feel that crown is slanted and sticking out. Feels higher. I tried to explain this to my dentist before cementing, but he said it should be like that, he doesn't do bad crowns and I shouldn't be so pessimistic. He felt highly offended when I asked questions and at the end he said I should never back to his practice.
