a local eye doctor's radio advertising claims he has done nearly 38,000 laser procedures. yes, 38,000.

so, i have been doing some math. if he was one of the first laser surgeons, he probably started about 10 years ago. 38,000/10 = 3,800 procedures a year. 3,800/260 (work days with no vacation or holidays) = roughly 15 procedures a day (with forgiving assumptions made).

do you really want a sleep deprived, laser weilding, speed freak messing with your precious eyeballs?

ultranote - i checked out his website. on the home page, near the primary navigation, is a phone number (in bold) for "post operative appointments". for this information to appear where it does, leads me to believe finding that number must be what we call a "key user task" in the web biz. if the key user task of your users is to call after the surgery, that scares me.
