I visited Harley medical last year for breast augmentation after having 3 children. The closest clinic (Bristol) is a 2 hour drive from where I live. On the consultation day we went through all the standard stuff, what size, what shape etc. I was quoted for just implants and also a quote for a possible areola lift. A few weeks passed I decided to book the surgeon consultation which was £500 upfront £100 for the surgeon and £400 to book my surgery date. Drove all the way back up to Bristol to meet the surgeon. Nobody bothered to tell me he was running an hour late. A frequent patient told me he always runs late. The surgeon had a kind of I can’t be bothered to be here attitude. The surgeon then said no you have to have a full uplift. Which of course took the cost up £2,500. I did not go through with the surgery as could not justify that amount on one procedure. After doing research it seemed my breasts weren’t below the “line” to require an uplift. I have since seen a surge won with Nuffield who has stated I am definitely not on the side of things to need an uplift and to preform one on me would be criminal. It’s also cheaper than I was first quoted at Harley and pretty much on my doorstep so win win :) After reading reviews on This site (somehow seen this site before) I feel so lucky I never went through surgery with Harley. After writing a complaint to Harley I was able to get a full £500 refund. The refund takes 30 days to actually reach your account. I would advise anyone who is considering surgery to avoid anywhere that wants money upfront or doesn’t allow you to book with a surgeon straight away.
