It's a double-edged sword. For surgeons, specialization improves outcomes as practice makes perfect. Since this is HN, I'll liken it to using the same programming language daily, versus being asked to fix a bug in a language you last used years ago, within a fixed time window.
The only missing peace is the a doctor on the care team who chooses which type of surgery is best, becasue once one is referred to a specialist: they are going to get that specific specialized care.
