Anyone who submits to elective surgery is out of their minds.
So many things can go wrong, and often do.
Post op infections are the scariest. A lot of the bacteria are antibiotic resistant.
Keep in mind that hospitals have a full surgery schedule. The doctors are rushed.
The operating rooms get turned over in minutes for the next case. There is cleaning done, but it's a rush.
So while you're sliced wide open , the supervising nurse is busting the doctors balls to hurry up, there is still tissue and fluids from the last operation in the room, and you're totally vulnerable to infections and mistakes.
