Hi welcome to the health care magic
The decision regarding surgery taken after seeing report of x ray and clinical condition
If you post your x ray or x report than further comment can be given
Here fracture is at three site, hence mostly you will need surgery for that
You can consult another orthopedic surgeon for examination and just for taking second opinion from him after examination....
Take care
Hope your concern solved
