Is it true that left-handed doctors can train and practice as qualified surgeons?
Unclear. Two sources indicate left-handed surgeons and left-handed surgical residents exist and train, though they describe difficulties such as lack of left-handed instruments and lower performance scoring. No source directly addresses whether left-handed doctors can qualify as surgeons.
