Suppose ahand-specialist performs an average of
five operations a day, five days a week, (allowing
two days for consultaion, doing rounds etc). That's
1250 operations a year. Unless she is a table-saw-
injury-hand-surgeon specialist that seems unrealistic.


She??

The OP stated "I've probably cared for close to 1000 table saw injuries in
my career". Career... not in a year. If he has been practicing for 10 years,
that would only be 100 a year...
