More details to this question:
The doctor that did this procedure told me there is nothing wrong with them and challenged me to find another Board Certified Surgeon to say there is something wrong. I went to another doctor who is Double Board Certified and he agrees with me that there is something wrong and is willing to fix them for me for a substantial amount of money. Besides his arrogant and unprofessional behavior, my confidence in this doctor is lost. This has affected my personal life & my relationship with my fiancee. Can you please tell me if I have a case?

Medical malpractice cases related to breast augmentation surgery are difficult to win. First, there are no guarananteed results with these procedures. Second, juries generally are prejudiced against plaintiffs in these cases. Third, more often than not mistakes can be corrected through further surgery, and so the damages are not that grave and the cases are not financially viable.
