Likely your brake pads are not broken as you seem to think, but the best cure for overly exuberant rotors is to turn them when they get the chuckles.

Surely your pads, suspension, exhaust, transmission is inspected when you change your oil and filter every ~4K miles?

Mechanic probobly took a liquid lunch brake before checking your breaks if he said your rotors were grinning.

More trustworthy?

Did they forget to replace your under engine tray or go at it from the top?
