sounds like something rubbing for sure, might be a rock or some debris is it thats very common. might be the brake line or something elce? check to see if the mechanic tightened everything up properly.

i would take the wheel off and look around for anything obvious. could be the rotor dust shield rubbing on the rotor or any number of different things. You could even try and check that out with the wheel still on

Check the lower control arm balljoint cotter pin...one time, when working on my brakes I inadvertently bent it too far out...would make a fkn TERRIBLE metal on metal grinding noise whenever I'd turn right also. Bent it out of the way and problem solved.
