Chapter 332 - Chapter 332 【332】Received praise

Chapter 332: [(332)] Received praise Chapter 332: [(332)] Received praise Just as she steadied herself, Teacher Sun asked, “Which bed?”

“It was a patient from yesterday’s outpatient clinic. The examination results came out, and he asked me if he could be admitted. I told him that his condition should be treated in internal medicine or hepatobiliary surgery,” Xie Wanying informed the teacher.

“What are you discussing?” a leader in front inquired.

The people below actually dared to whisper among themselves.

Sun Yubo and Xie Wanying fell silent, thinking: perhaps they were about to get scolded.

“What are you murmuring about down there? If you have any special cases, share them so that everyone can hear,” Associate Director Liu called out.

Seeing this, Tan Kelin spoke up to explain on behalf of those below: “It should be a patient who came to my clinic yesterday. He had seen someone in internal medicine before and had black stools last time; internal medicine misdiagnosed it as gastrointestinal bleeding and performed a gastroscopy, but it turned out to be nothing. The last ultrasound also showed no abnormalities. When he came to see me yesterday, he exhibited symptoms of pancreatitis.”

Teacher Tan was impressive; just hearing a few words, she immediately knew it was the patient from bed two. Xie Wanying stepped forward to add, “It’s just as teacher described. This morning, the patient came with his examination results and asked to be admitted to our ward because he didn’t want to go to internal medicine again.”

Upon hearing her words, the tension that had been stretching tight in the department suddenly turned into embarrassment. Thinking about it, the matter with internal medicine seemed rather serious. The surgeons wouldn’t laugh at internal medicine, rather, they were afraid of being dragged down with them.

Shen Jinghui suggested that everyone handle the situation properly, “We need to deal with this carefully to prevent complaints. – How did you speak to the patient, Dr. Xie?”

“I contacted my senior in internal medicine and told him that my senior was surely more skilled than I am, and he agreed to go see my senior,” Xie Wanying answered truthfully.

After a moment of realization, the office erupted into laughter.

Tan Kelin touched his aloof face, leaning his forehead on his fingertips: He didn’t know what to make of this student.

Not bad, Student Xiao Xie, quick on your feet. Sun Yubo turned back and discreetly gave the student a thumbs up.

Shen Jinghui maintained his stern expression but asked for more details about the case: “Ordinarily, it’s unlikely for our hospital’s internal medicine department to misdiagnose a patient. What caused it?”

“The patient hid his fondness for hotpot,” Tan Kelin explained.

“Did you figure out that he likes hotpot?”

“It wasn’t me who figured it out; it was her. I don’t know how she did it,” he said.

Xie Wanying didn’t expect Teacher Tan to call her out directly and was a bit flabbergasted.

“How did you figure it out, Dr. Xie?” several leaders asked.

Xie Wanying replied, “I heard his accent was very thick, and it seemed like he was from Mountain City.”

Everyone suddenly understood.

“He often ate hotpot in his hometown, but it wouldn’t have been likely for him to eat a lot of meat at home. Based on his clothes and appearance, it seemed he only started doing well in business after coming to the Capital, and it’s very likely he began overindulging recently, which aggravated his condition,” Xie Wanying added her thought process.

Hotpot with lamb and beef is expensive, implying the young man’s condition looked like one of sudden wealth.

People laughed as they listened to her explanation. The three directors conferred in whispers.

After the shift change, ward rounds, and assisting with surgery in the OR, the busy morning came to an end. When lunchtime arrived, Kang Mingzhu invited her to meet at the hospital cafeteria.

“The patient you referred this morning, I looked at his previous medical records and called Senior Yoo. He was seen by a doctor from Ward Six of the Department of Internal Medicine,” Kang Mingzhu said while they ate, sharing information with her junior sister, “Now the main thing is to soothe the patient, to prevent him from complaining. Ward Six called to ask about the situation, and I told them I’d ask you at lunch.”
