surgery or anything like that?
|
Minkoff:
|
The surgery.
.
.the death rate’s about
100.
You
|
know.
. .
if you have somebody go in there and try
|
|
to get the clot out and the patient is really sick,
|
the percentages are terrible. So it’s not usually done.

Det. Sudler:

|
in New Port Richey and not maybe another hospital here locally?
|
Minkoff:
