We had a plumber redo our bathroom sink for a new vanity.
The way it was done, we can't patch the wall because the pipe in the back is sitting at the same level as the wall.
It also looks like he might have turned it into an S trap to avoid cutting the vanity.

Does this plumbing look ok, or should we re do it?

I would fix that.
It's an S trap that will siphon and you also have the wrong fittings at the wall.

I think we're going to redo it with the p trap and cut a hole in the vanity.
Is there anything specific we need to look for fittings at the wall?
