You're on the right track.
Follow it up regularly with serial x-rays with your primary surgeon.

It will heal, sir. Your doctor has done his work. Few patients might take more time for union. Avoid smoking and drinking habits if any. Can take Injection Teriperatide for 3 months, Calcium tablets and calcium rich diet like Sesame seeds, Finger Millets, Almonds, Dates, Milk, Eggs, Spinach, Apricots, Dry Figs, Oranges should help you. If any 2nd opinion needed, you can consult me at our hospital. Thank you.

If bone grafting is already done, will have to wait for fracture to heal!
There is no further treatment but to wait and watch how the fracture heals with time.
