What kind of side effects are you having that are making you want to undo the work that this doctor did and have the same surgery again with another doctor? It is important that you understand that if you are experiencing possible side effects then the same thing is likely to happen with a second surgery-- that's if you can find a doctor willing to undo another doctor's work and re-do it.
Prior to surgery, all doctors are required to inform patients of the risks associated with the surgery, and then they ask you to sign something known as an informed consent. I can't stress enough how many patients sign this paper without actually understanding what the risks of their surgery are. Please ask detailed questions to your current doctor, she knows your history and surgery results better than anyone else. Perhaps if she cannot undo, she can at least suggest how to make the side effects less bothersome/painful.
