Need pre-op images to determine but I think you are wrong.


What about the pre-op images would change your mind?

The surgeon treated that fracture pattern appropriately. It appears there is lateral comminution along with a small medial calcar piece remaining with the head. Impacting the shaft into the head a bit is an absolutely accepted and preferred method of stabilizing the fracture.

You are welcome to your opinion, but your advice and concerns to the OP are misguided. That is a nice fracture reduction and fixation.

No competent orthopedic surgeon would recommend a revision based on that single image.
