Consultation review: waste of $250

UPDATED FROM goodstuff24

Consultation- Waste of $250

I consulted with him for breast fat transfer. Paid the $250 fee and got scheduled within a week or two. He was a few minutes late for the virtual consultation-not a big deal. I consulted with over 5 PS who are well known for this procedure. He was the only one that insisted I need a lift. Did not ask what I was looking for, I mentioned natural, and he was like "yeah yeah yeah." Incredibly dismissive of what I was looking for and comfortable with and so arrogant. He rushed me off less than 30 minutes and transferred me over to Erin to talk about the $20,000 cost and scheduling. As I was asking her a few more follow up questions several people came in and out which I thought was pretty unprofessional. After about 20 minutes of me talking with her (was considering overlooking his rushing/arrogance because of his credentials) he came in and said, "I need you." And we ended the consultation. It was so rude and rushed and they wanted me to commit to a $20,000 procedure just like that. Additionally, I started to wonder does he rush the procedure and all of the other care he gives patients? Not a risk I am willing to take. There are much better out there, I have scheduled with one of them. I asked 2 of the other PS I was considering about needing a lift and they said no. Based on his before/afters he seems to push this on most of his patients. Disappointing experience.
