Your hypothesis sounds a bit... fishy to me.
You can lead a developer to CodeProject, but you can't make them think.

Okay fine then. I think the operation was actually performed by a sturgeon.

I tried bribery but I don't have the clams to pay them off. Will have to try applying a little mussel.

It was an Australian goldfish.
And I'm fairly certain had its owner not paid for the operation he wouldn't have spent the money on a dying poor person instead.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Exactly. If it had been a US goldfish, the tumor would have been on its ass.

I bet the doctor went out and bought a new fish and flushed George.

It's amazing what some vets will do to help animals!
There is a UK TV series (very short, but there's a longer series starting later this year) called The Supervet[^] and what he does is incredible. Forget "nail a wheel on this amputee tortoise" - he puts prosthetic legs on cats! 
Worth a look if you can find it on YouTube or similar.

When we first took our dog to the vet my missus who worries far too much about him kept saying can this be done can this be done can this be done.
The vet said "This is private healthcare, I'll do whatever you pay me to".

Not all of them - when we went to A Vet Who Will Not Be Named (because he is / was a litigious b'stard as well as greedy) in Haslemere his surgery was modern, well equipped - but no animal escaped without at least one £70 injection.
We ended up with a much less modern surgery run by two old vets who did nothing unless they felt it was in the best interest of the animal. And a damn sight cheaper as well.

I have been told anecdotally that the likes of Petplan have put the brakes on that practice. They simple send back invoices 'unpaid due to unnecessary work' and the vet then has to fight the insurers.
