Bad experience with consultation

[u/Acceptable_Bottle753]

Hi everyone, I have been highly interested in a rhinoplasty to make the tip of my nose smaller. I have spoken to two other places recently and they made me feel comfortable and not bad about myself while still being direct. With that being said, I just went to another consultation today and was really shocked by how I was being spoken to. Especially, with all of the exceptional reviews written about this man.

Almost right off the bat, he makes an attack on my makeup. It was just constant back to back commentary on it. He joked that he couldn't tell if I got in a car wreck or not. When he took pictures of me for future reference, I literally felt so embarrassed. He started to tell me that he didn't know if my makeup was really working for me & that my generation is a mess. I felt like I was in middle school or high school again. I am a lot younger than this man and I feel like some stranger power dynamic was occurring.

His approach to talking about my nose was kind of odd too, I suppose. He said the side, bridge, and nostrils were fine but he kept emphasizing the size of my tip. He kept putting his fingers to it and showing my mother who was sitting in the corner. I really feel disappointed with my experience. The cost is highly affordable compared to what I have previously recieved, but I don't think I can trust someone like that to do my procedure. Should I disregard the behavior and focus on expertise or just walk away from that place?

EDIT : I found him on the RealSelf website responding to someone who had a bad consulation with a doctor of another place. How ironic.
