She went for her second consultation today where she was supposed to pay 50% upfront before the actual procedure is done. Last time she spoke to him he told her its $2000 PER AREA.. and she wanted just her lovehandles and back rolls.. so he quoted 4000... and he told her to bring $2000 for todays appt. According to what she told me, she called him a couple days ago and told him she'd only be getting teh lovehandles done first, and backrolls maybe in a few weeks. He told her fine. So today was the blood test, he asks her how much he quoted her last time, she told him $2000 he said ok, drew blood, took the deposit, and before giving her the receipt asked to see the area again. This time he quoted her $2700. He said last time he gave her a good price cuz she was having more than one area done blah blah blah and that theres a lot of cost involved everytime they open a package for the procedure. She believed him, but I think he just fooled her... what do you guys think? cuz how could he go from 2000 to 2700 all of a sudden? Something sounds fishy.. or am I being suspicious for no reason?

And it doesnt help that she never went to see another doctor about all this before you know like a second opinion to compare the costs with.

I keep telling her that she should just schedule another consultation with a separate doctor first adn tehn go back to this guy if anything... and if the 2nd opinion doctor happens to be cheaper.. she should ask for a refund for her $1000. She doesnt think he'd give it back to her though... is that like, legal?? Deposit doesnt mean that the doctor gets to keep the money even if you end up not wanting/having the procedure... right???

*oh and another thing, finally in the end he realized that she wasnt so willing to pay $2700 for just the lovehandles and told her that he'd work out a deal with her... tuesday when she goes for the blood test results... he said she should bring another $2000... he said he'd do the backrolls and the lovehandles together for the $4000 that he initially told her... and that she'd pay $3000 altogether and he'd give her 2 months time to pay the remainder of the $1000 in installments. Basically how thats gonna be done is he makes her just sign some random paper saying she owes him that money. Does it sound right to you guys? But when she came home she was having second thoughts and decided just to have the lovehandles.. she's gonna wait for the underbra back roll fat stuff for a while...

Ok hope it makes sense.

Ok hope it makes sense. it's the heart afraid of dying, that never learns to dance; It's the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance; It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give; And the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.
