@Reggie3 You have the right to receive a copy of your medical records. This includes correspondence between doctors.
When you see your GP today, ask for a copy of all documents from your surgeon to the GP. This will include the surgeon's letters documenting your pre-op and post-op appointments. Likewise contact your surgeon's office and request a copy of your full record including your signed consent forms. Understandably the records from your surgeon will include some duplicates of documents you obtain from your GP.
Very importantly, you must get a copy of your Operation Report. This is the surgeon's description of the operation. It will be in your surgeon's records and he will have lodged a copy with the hospital. If your GP did not receive a copy and it is not included with your surgeon's documents, it can be obtained from your hospital. You have the right to receive this document.
Your surgeon's post-op explanations are fanciful and his abject failure and the impact on you is a travesty. My opinion is if you do not return to him, you should not be be out-of-pocket for his failed operation and he should issue a refund. You paid $2,500 for, literally, nothing.
