Most people at their first consultation take a furtive look at the surgeon’s hands in the hope of reassurance. Prospective patients look for delicacy, sensitivity, steadiness, perhaps unblemished pallor. On this basis, Henry Perowne loses a number of cases each year. Generally, he knows it’s about to happen before the patient does: the downward glance repeated, the prepared questions beginning to falter, the overemphatic thanks during the retreat to the door.

The paragraph talks about Henry Perowne losing some patients because of his hands. From the paragraph, we can understand that there definitely is a problem with his hands. Logically, the next statement should be about the patients whom Henry Perowne doesn't lose. Sentence B talks about this aspect, that though the other patients also realise that there is a problem with his hands, they are ignorant or stuck up about their options and hence go nowhere else. Hence, b) is the apt concluding statement.
