Yes, an American doctor should see your surgical follow-up. This should be in place prior to your surgery with your first appointment scheduled shortly after your return. He will prescribe all follow up x-rays and necessary meds.
Flying back is difficult but I know no one who had any major setback. Just some minor stuff. Unless there is a major complication that needs revision surgery, there is no need to fly back to Germany.
If an MRI is needed, I'm pretty sure as you stated, only the ADRs will not be clear.
