It’s not something that he reported but I haven’t asked directly.
I don’t think there would be problems with having a small amount of metal in your fingers. While medical implants are usually made with titanium that’s not magnetic and doesn’t register strongly airport equipment, it’s not something that should be an issue.
The main problem is the inability to have an MRI if you should need it in the future.
Does he have any problems at airports?

Magnetic implants are subcutaneous, if you really need an MRI, it’s easy to take them out (and put them back in later).
