This is what attracts a lot of doctors to surgery.... GPs see a lot of the same stuff.... colds, minor infections, physicals, tetanus shots.... and making referrals. It's pretty mundane, but some like it. Others want more challenge, and with surgery, every patient, every procedure, is different. Different level of invasiveness, different technique, different incisions, and a lot of thinking & doing on the fly - not to mention complications. They have an idea what they're going to do, but they never really know for sure until they get in there and actually see/feel what's involved. It's good - really good - that your husband's recovery is going so well! Doc
