Lift again (I'm a personal trainer) and 30 years old. The physician did not speak to my family member post op and the next day I had an allergic reaction to the antibiotic I was prescribed after 3 calls and no call back,I went to urgent care. I again tried to contact and never received a call back. I had a 2nd opinion today and the physician said "his excuses for why it didn't work were ridiculous." Do I have a case? I am going to have the surgery done over.

Do I have a case? Not unless or until a doctor says the surgery failure was "ridiculous" in writing and defines it as malpractice. Until then its simply a failed surgery effort. You may want to discuss this with the secondary doctor and if he'll put that opinion in writing bring it to a peronsal injury lawyer for review ASAP.
