What should I do if a plastic surgeon refuses to perform a revision of another surgeon’s work?

anon50912
The surgeon, who refuses to perform the revision, and a surgeon, who wants to perform the revision, perform the non-cosmetic surgery usually together. I accept that a surgeon can refuse to perform a revision. I know that plastic surgeons can be reluctant to revise another surgeon’s work. I had unsuccessful revisions with the surgeon of the first surgery. The surgeon, who refused to perform the revision, referred me to other surgeons. My health isn’t at risk with performing another revision.
