Shameless
The next day.
Medical Center.
"Hi."
"Hi."
"Hi."
Various greetings rose and fell.
The vast majority of people looked happy.
Too.
Having a day off not only relieves fatigue but also releases hormones, making it impossible not to feel energetic.
Doctors are human beings, not machines.
Even machines need lubrication sometimes...
"Adam, Dr. Shepherd has a patient who is very likely to need surgery today. Go and participate in the ward rounds."
Sheran blinked. "Dr. Bailey will be bringing her interns with her. Whether you can get a surgery opportunity depends entirely on yourself."
"Good."
Adam happily accepted.
He prefers this kind of open competition.
In the ward.
Neurosurgeon Dr. Shept is examining a patient, surrounded by a group of interns, including not only Bailey's team but also those of other residents.
They were all full of energy, eager to try, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Cristina looked at Adam defiantly.
Adam gave a reserved smile.
"Good morning, Mr. Lefanji. This is Dr. Bailey and her excellent interns."
After finishing his examination, Dr. Shepherd glanced at everyone and introduced the patient.
"Welcome to hell, children."
The patient, Lefanji, was experiencing spasmodic tremors in his hands and feet, and was struggling to walk with the support of his daughter.
Adam's eyes narrowed.
He recognized the man's face. If he were a few years older, with a crooked mouth, slanted eyes, an IV drip hanging from his neck, and sitting in a wheelchair, he would clearly be that old Mexico family elder from the American TV series Breaking Bad, the one with the vitality of a cockroach.
This worried him somewhat.
These family-run criminal groups are extremely dangerous.
Once you get it, it will definitely cause you a lot of headaches.
Who will describe the patient's condition?
"Dr. Bailey began."
"Edward Levange, 63, was admitted to the hospital for treatment of pain caused by movement disorders. His condition has been stable since last night, and the medication is working well."
Cristina responded immediately.
After saying that, he gave Adam a smug look.
Adam understood.
To get ahead of the curve, Cristina stayed in the hospital even though she was on mandatory leave, and obtained firsthand information.
"Liz, tell me about the treatment?"
Unfortunately, Dr. Bailey directly called on him to ask the question.
"Treatment for Parkinson's's disease?"
Liz said uncertainly, "Deep mental stimulation..."
"It's not for Parkinson's's disease, it's for spinal pain."
Adam immediately answered, "Use spinal catheterization, so that long-term pain can be treated with medication."
Dr. Shepherd, who was gazing deeply into Meredith's Meredith and preparing for her to speak, remained silent.
"Dr. Shepherd?"
Adam pretended not to know and gave a reminder.
"Very good."
Dr. Shepherd's lips twitched, and he said helplessly, "This is Dr. Duncan. He will help you prepare for the surgery and assist with the treatment as needed."
The principle of "whoever is capable should take the lead" must be followed, even if he is the Attending Physician.
Liz and the others were helpless.
Cristina was very unhappy.
Meredith could only manage a wry smile.
She was fully prepared for this kind of open competition, even though she and Dr. Shepherd had discussed the case in bed the night before.
But as long as Adam is there, it's useless.
No matter how complex the illness, Adam can always provide an accurate treatment plan immediately.
Even if she didn't pretend to think for a moment before arriving at the answer, and simply revealed that she knew beforehand, she still couldn't outdo Adam.
Adam was too fast, even faster than her who knew the answer in advance!
Even cheating couldn't beat him, what could I do but smile bitterly?
If she did that, people would have seen through her cheating long ago.
But despite Adam's abilities, no one said a word of criticism, no one questioned Adam's skills, they just made a few comments saying that Adam was definitely not an intern, and that was it.
The differences between people can sometimes be so frustrating.
After Adam was chosen as the attending physician, everyone dispersed.
Adam followed the procedure meticulously, paying close attention at every step and being mindful at all times, unwilling to say or do anything unnecessary.
Regardless of whether this man is the ruthless and troublesome person he remembers.
He's just the attending physician. As long as there's no personal emotional conflict with the patient, even if there's a problem with the surgery, or if the patient is really a difficult person and causes a lot of trouble, the probability of them causing trouble for him is very low.
This surgery is very interesting, Adam naturally won't give up easily.
Although his goal for specialization is Cardiothoracic Surgery, isn't it standard practice for a man aspiring to become a Path of a Great Doctor to be proficient in multiple disciplines?
For example, a certain "cheapskate" is an all-rounder.
There's no system in American TV shows. Dr. House next door specializes in infectious diseases and kidney diseases. He's almost a generalist in medical theory, otherwise he wouldn't be able to diagnose such difficult and complicated cases.
He even has a surgical license and can perform surgery on patients from time to time.
I can do both internal medicine and surgery.
So, if you put it that way, Adam would never believe that Dr. House isn't the absolute male lead in some American TV series or movie.
Adam also has a system that gives him advantages. With so many seniors watching over him, how could he possibly be satisfied with just the title of a Cardiothoracic Surgeon?
The two most important organs in the human body are the heart and the brain.
Therefore, in addition to Cardiothoracic Surgery, Neurosurgery was also a field that Adam would inevitably venture into.
Now that Neurosurgery is available, how could he possibly give it up?
All morning.
Adam was busy preparing for Mr. Mr. Lefanji's surgery.
noon.
Hospital cafeteria.
It's you again!
Cristina said something that sounded very displeased.
Why is it always you!
Liz and others echoed the criticism.
"Don't do that."
Adam laughed and said, "It's not like this is the only surgery. I heard that Dr. Burke treated a very interesting case. If it were me, I would prefer to participate in the surgery for that giant tumor."
Don't even mention it!
This made Cristina even angrier. "Alex is so shameless!"
"Shameless!"
"Mean!"
"Only Alex would be so shameless as to steal surgery by selling smiles!"
George and others condemned it.
"What happened?"
Adam had only heard a Sheldon the surgery and didn't really know the specifics.
"Alex shouldn't have been the attending physician in the first place."
Cristina said angrily, "But Alex tried to get close to the patient beforehand, calling her ' Annie, Alex ' as if they were such good friends."
Imagine a single woman in her forties who, due to low self-esteem, is afraid to go out and meet people. She stays at home for over a year, allowing her tumor to grow to over 60 pounds (27 kilograms) until she has to be hospitalized.
How could anyone resist Alex's obsequiousness? The patient directly asked Alex to be his attending physician; what could we do?
"He's completely deceiving the patient's feelings. The tumor was so big it was terrifying to look at. It's a wonder he's such a good actor."
George complained.
"Hehe."
Adam laughed and said, "This is the arena! You can't say he's shameless, you can only say you're not as skilled as others."
"..."
Everyone was speechless.
Don't doubt it, if they knew beforehand that this would work, they would definitely have done it.
If no one else were to speak, Cristina would definitely be the first to step forward.
Even if she is a woman, the patient is still a woman.
But as long as the female patient is interested, she doesn't mind playing a lesbian...
