Dr Mailk: Quote from BMI... - London Cardiovascular Clinic LCC

I read a quote in the BMJ this week:

“Good surgeons know how to operate

Better surgeons know when to operate

The best surgeons know when not to operate”.

This makes very good sense. Avoiding an unnecessary medical intervention can be life saving.
