A member asked:
If you get surgery once and it doesn't work, is the surgeon obligated to give another surgery to fix it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Although there is no obligation, most surgeons would want to fix a problem, however if the procedure did not work the first time, you might want to try a different procedure.
