Zero medical research done

Not a doctor here, but I'm pretty sure attaching a hand back isn't just a matter of orthopedics. You'd need a surgeon specialized in vascular surgery and someone who knows nerves. Maybe even a plastic surgeon. Also, that surgery probably takes a really long time. It's not like our bodies are made of Legos that you can just snap back together if they come off. And the fluids. I'm sure you'd need blood for an operation like that. Platelets. Something other than saline at the very least.Why did the writers go the most outrageous route possible? They could just given the guy a bad fracture. Something exposed, maybe. With no vascular or nerve damage. But something that would have required ortho expertise to fix. I feel like very little research went into writing this drama. The only medical knowledge I have is from TV shows and I'm appalled at how utterly unbelievable that whole sequence was. I can't even imagine what an actual doctor would have to say about this show.
