Surgery that's good for swimmer (4)
I believe the answer is:
opah
'swimmer' is the definition.
(opah is a kind of fish)
'surgery that's good' is the wordplay.
'surgery' becomes 'op' (short for operation).
'that's good' becomes 'ah' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'op'+'ah'='OPAH'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for opah that I've seen before include "Large deep-sea fish" , "Ocean swimmer" , "Kingfish" .)
