Chapter 784 - 784 Cardiology Brother No. 784

Chapter 784: Cardiology Brother No. 784 Chapter 784: Cardiology Brother No. 784 “Don’t be fooled by Student Li’s nonchalance as if the surgery could be completed in two seconds. In fact, it’s technically very challenging. There are only a few doctors in the Guoxie Cardiology Department that can truly ace this procedure,” said Wu Lixuan, deciding to chat with the little girl instead since she couldn’t follow the medical lingo.

Lin Hao took off his stethoscope and snorted. As a surgery intern, he had to defend his field, saying, “If it narrows again, it will still need to be sent to thoracic surgery for valve replacement.”

“Lin Hao, I’m reminding you, you’re on your cardiology rotation now. Are you asking for a beating by talking like that here?” Li Qi’an adjusted his glasses and schooled him on how to behave on someone else’s turf.

Lin Hao didn’t expect to be put in his place by Student Li, so he frowned and pretended he didn’t hear anything.

Xie Wanying held a consultation request form in her hand, seeking the opinions of her fellow interns in cardiology, “Our department has a patient who needs a consult from your department. We suspect it’s a valve disease. It’s not very clear upon auscultation, and the condition could be complex. Which doctor do you think we should ask for the consult?”

Hearing this, two interns gathered around her to look over the consult records. After pondering for a while, Li Qi’an suggested to her, “If the patient needs an interventional surgery, Senior Jin is the best choice. However, he probably won’t go for the consult himself. We could invite Dr. Che from his team to see the patient first.”

Senior Jin, full name Jin Tianyu. Xie Wanying had rarely heard his name from her classmates before.

“He’s not very close to us,” Li Qi’an admitted with a twist of his mouth, “Even as his junior, I only address him as Teacher Jin.”

Jin Tianyu, like some of the other highly skilled seniors, didn’t easily fraternize with juniors. He disliked being casually called ‘Senior’ as any mishaps could end up being blamed on him.

“It’s all the same calling him Teacher,” Li Qi’an wasn’t bothered by this fact, but instead said, “He’s very loud, and his temper is worse than Teacher Tan’s. Teacher Tan’s bad temper only involves glaring at people. Jin Tianyu yells at them. He was the one who performed the surgery today. Since Doctor Zhuang couldn’t finish it in the end, they had to ask him to help out. He was scolding someone from the operating table all the way down.”

Just terrible. Lin Hao, who had assisted in the operating room that morning, vividly recalled the scene with palpable anxiety, his cool face turning pale.

Senior Jin’s call came in, and Lin Hao took out his phone, replying carefully in a serious tone, “Teacher Jin. Yes, Doctor Zhuang hasn’t returned from the outpatient clinic this afternoon, asking me to watch the patients in the ward.”

The person on the other end of the line had quite a loud voice. Everyone around could hear the roaring volume of the other party.

“He left you alone? What can you, an intern, do? What about the others on his team? Are they all playing hide and seek? This patient wasn’t well suited for the surgery in the first place, and no one’s watching after it was done?”

Worried about scaring the patient, Lin Hao took his phone and stepped outside the door to take the brunt of the teacher’s tongue-lashing.

Perhaps realizing later that it was pointless to berate an intern, Jin Tianyu said, “Tell Teacher Zhuang to find me when he’s back. I’m staying here tonight.”

“Yes, Teacher Jin.” Knowing his place as an intern, Lin Hao was fully aware that he would at most serve as a messenger.

“What have you observed this afternoon alone?” Out of options, Jin Tianyu reluctantly continued to question the intern, trying to understand the patient’s post-operative condition.

“The patient’s heart rate seems normal now, no issues with lung auscultation, and the puncture site isn’t bleeding. I will send the medical record with the blood pressure values to you, Teacher Jin, in a while.”
