My wife professionally interacts with a lot of top level surgeons -- the ones that have institutes named after or created for. They universally say it is all about risk management and risk mitigation. Trauma and neuro and cardiac surgeons of today are likely to be able to fix amazing number of issues just to have patients become gravely ill from secondary infections/non-top-notch care after the surgeries.

- tachyoff 9y agoThat's because most Americans have no idea how probability or risk mitigation work. It's their body, dammit, and they want you to fix it!
