A member asked:
Would you go to a surgeon with 6 fingers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Is it 6 fingers altogether, like 3 on each hand? Or is it 6 fingers on one hand and the usual 5 on the other? If it's 6 fingers altogether, that would make it difficult for the surgeon to use the usual surgical instruments. If he/she has 6 fingers on one hand, that's probably not so bad.
