An improperly healed bone will require a more difficult and expensive surgery than a surgery to get it fixed properly now. I would go straight to a specialist (and not the one that they used, just so that you can truly get a second opinion) and if they give you the same opinion, you can rest easy at night and stick your tongue out of us for being worry warts.
If they say that she does need surgery, you are getting it fixed while it is less complicated and costly.
