How many of these procedures have you done?

All of the surgeons in our group are qualified to do all heart, thoracic and vascular procedures. Sometimes one surgeon has done many more procedures than another and (s)he might even ask a surgeon with more experience to help with the case. None of the surgeons, however, will do a case they do not feel comfortable doing or feel they do not have enough experience doing. Our surgeons will refer to another more experienced surgeon in our group if (s)he feels it will better meet the patient’s needs.
