I wouldn't want ro be operated on by these monkeys, but I honestly don't think most surgeons have a hard job. At least the surgery part. They're doing the same by-the-book operation that's been developed and refined over years by someone else. And they do it dozens, if not hundreds of times a month. I've seen first hand how some surgeons will be very picky about who they operate on, presumably only picking low risk patients to keep their insurance rates low. I bet this guy falls in with that group and spends his time on easy things like repairing torn tendons on relatively young athletic patients.
