Also, if you want to pull out anecdotes, I'm pretty sure the rest of us can come up with a lot as well.
My point was that allendo is not a surgeon, nor is he trained or compensated like one. Therefore, I do not expect him to practice as a surgeon. In much the same way I do not expect NPs to insert central lines if they are not required to so as per the policies and procedures of their institution.
