He originally wanted 6 ribs removed, but he couldn’t find a surgeon in the world who would perform the procedure.


Is would past of will?

  

Top answer

Yes. Present tense would be "he can't find a surgeon in the world who will perform the procedure". In this case "would" has a sense of "would agree to" or "was prepared to".
