Love Her, Cut Yourself First
"Interested in working in the emergency room?"
Dr. Lewis. Susan Lewis's invitation was clear. "I think you're a natural for this."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Adam smiled and declined, saying, "But I prefer being a surgeon."
"All right."
Susan didn't press the issue, stopping short of pressing it further.
In the hospital hierarchy, surgeons are at the top, while emergency room doctors are at the bottom; naturally, the best talent all flock to the top.
no way.
Emergency room income is relatively low, the work is busy, and the pressure is particularly high. The mortality rate of patients handled is the highest among all departments, because many patients are already beyond saving when they are brought in.
In this kind of atmosphere, the probability of emergency room doctors experiencing a mental breakdown is very high.
Adam had heard that the previous Attending Physician in the Medical Center's emergency room was fine one moment, leading his team of doctors and nurses in rescuing patients, and the next moment he would stand there blankly and start taking off his clothes, walking naked out of the hospital and disappearing without a trace.
It is said that everyone was stunned at the time, watching the whole thing without any emergency response.
It was afternoon.
Adam went to the nurses' station to pick up his medical records and ran into Meredith always carried a freezer with her wherever she went.
"Not here yet?"
Adam laughed.
"In movies and TV dramas, the American Police always comes out to clear things up at the end, and it's definitely not made up."
Meredith complained, "This is too slow. If it were us, the patient would have died long ago."
"So the American Police have started sponsoring related films and TV series in large quantities."
Adam joked, "Believe it or not, you'll see a lot of brilliant and powerful cops and robbers in the future. No one can escape their punishment. Justice will not only come, but it will never be late."
"Hehe."
Meredith smiled, then looked at Adam with her 'affectionate' eyes. "Liz didn't mean it, don't be angry with her."
"Whether it was intentional or not, it doesn't matter."
Adam said calmly, "As long as the target isn't me!"
"I never expected that."
Meredith stared straight at Adam, and said with some surprise, "You treat a beauty like Liz like this? Most men wouldn't be able to be this heartless."
"That's why it fostered her naivety."
Adam scoffed, "I'm not her father."
"Dad?"
Meredith looked at her strangely. "Why did you mention being her father?"
Isn't the ideal relationship role for a normal person boyfriend?
"Cough cough."
Adam coughed lightly, raised the medical record in his hand, and said as he prepared to leave, "I still have patients to see, I'll be going now."
"Oh my god!"
Meredith did not respond. Instead, she looked behind Adam, exclaimed in surprise, grabbed the freezer, and ran outside.
"Depend on!"
Adam looked in that direction and saw a car parked diagonally at the hospital entrance. A man covered in blood from the waist down got out of the car and staggered toward the hospital.
"Call security."
Adam gave the instructions and quickly went to meet them.
This guy is probably that strongman.
To wait until now to come to the hospital, that takes real guts.
The group placed the strong prisoner on a gurney and pushed him into the Operating Room. Security guards who arrived at the scene handcuffed him just in case.
Because it was related to that strong-willed girl, and Meredith was the first to make contact, the surgery was taken over by the Nazi.
Their Attending Physician, Dr. Burke, was performing another surgery, and after being notified and given permission, the resident, Dr. The Nazi, performed the surgery.
Adam and Meredith arrived one after the other, so they should have been able to go into the Operating Room together, but the Nazi only told Meredith to prepare, without mentioning Adam at all.
"Dr. Bailey, I would like to participate in this surgery."
Surgery is not a question that needs to be answered quickly; Adam will not let any opportunity slip by.
"Sorry, there are no available rooms in the Operating Room."
The Nazi refused without hesitation.
Adam frowned; the reason was both perfunctory and compelling enough.
Operating Room vary in size. In addition to the surgeon, there are anesthesiologists, scrub nurses, and others. In Teaching Hospital, interns allowed by the surgeon may also go in to learn, such as performing retractor sutures, to gain practical experience.
Meredith is in this situation, and this is what Adam is asking for.
If the Operating Room is small, so many people will be crammed together, so there will naturally be a limit on the number of people.
However, the Nazi and the others were put into Operating Room 2, which is a large Operating Room with enough space. Not to mention Adam, even if there were several more, it would not be a problem at all.
Such Operating Room are specifically designed for large-scale surgeries that require collaboration between various departments.
Performing a fifth limb repair now would be a complete waste of talent, so how could there not be room for it?
But the Nazi had said that, Adam could say nothing more.
After all, she's the one performing the surgery, so it's her freedom to choose whatever she wants. If she says there are no available spots, even if it's an open-air plaza, she might complain that your breathing is too loud and interferes with her surgery.
Moreover, even if he managed to get in, without her permission, Adam could only stand dumbfounded in the distance and watch, unable to do anything or even have a surgical field of vision.
Adam turned and left after seeing Meredith carry the freezer inside.
Clearly, not everyone had a blind affection for Adam.
Even the most charming person is wasted on someone the Nazi Dr. Miranda Dr. Bailey, who has no looks and doesn't care about looks.
Although Adam was a little annoyed, he quickly got rid of the negative emotions.
He's not Franklin; how could everyone possibly like him?
If someone is so confident as to be arrogant, then he should be worried.
emergency room.
"Dr. Duncan, could you please have the nurse leave?"
In a private hospital room, a shy young man spoke awkwardly.
"OK."
Adam understood, gave the nurse a wink, and after she left, he smiled and said, "Now can I see why you went to the emergency room?"
The shy young man removed the clothes he was holding, revealing his lower body, which was smeared with blood.
"What happened?"
Adam was startled and scrutinized the shy young man, thinking, "Could there be a mistake? Is this young man the rapist? Could it be that dramatic?"
"I have a new girlfriend..."
The shy young man stammered, "She's Jewish, and this is her first time dating a non-Jewish boyfriend. She's a little uncomfortable..."
As he spoke, he took off his blood-stained pants.
"So you're going to do it yourself, like the Jews, to get circumcised to please your girlfriend?"
Adam's lips twitched upon seeing this.
"I checked the operating procedures online, and I also sterilized the knife beforehand..."
The shy young man said with shame.
"With the internet, everyone can become a doctor. If everyone does what you do, all of us doctors will lose our jobs."
Adam muttered a complaint, opened the door, and prepared to leave.
"Wait, what should we do now?"
The shy young man said urgently.
Adam smiled and said, "Wait here for a moment, I'll go and contact a plastic surgeon for you."
