I think the idea is that if they really cared about their patients, they would eventually find one they're a match for and donate it.
Not sure that necessarily follows, but I believe that is the point.
- ashtonkem 5y agoThe chances of a transplant surgeon discovering that they’re a match for their patient seems exceedingly low. Furthermore, assuming transplant surgeons are rare, then that surgeon is probably the only healthy person who can’t easily donate their kidney; after all, who would do the surgery?
- lotsofpulp 5y agoIt absolutely does not follow. Two kidneys are better than one, surgeries are not risk free, and to imply that a person has an obligation to give their organ to someone if they care about them is asinine.
