I have heard one orthopedic spine surgeon and one vascular surgeon go on about how much easier it is to operate on a "thin" person than on someone that's overweight. The first stating how much faster and less frustrating thin patients are, the second stating that it is a "real treat" to get to operate on a thin patient.
