I've got a sharp knife and the internet has pictures of surgeries so I'm sure I can figure it out. Or did you want a competent doctor that spent 8 years in school and another four years working for next to nothing until they actually knew what they were doing?

Yeah, that's a bit more accurate. Remember, "surgeon" is a pretty broad term - it doesn't just apply to cardiac or plastic surgeons. Almost all specialists perform some flavor of surgery.

Incidentally, a gallon of gold at today's prices would be roughly $2 million.
