Tell me about yourself?

What was the most interesting question?

Fast forward 10 years and you are working in a very respected fellowship. A patient needs a new procedure that has a high success rate. But a senior member of the staff tells you that you need to treat the patient with older methods. These have very low success rates. What do you do?
