Medical Center.

What's wrong with her?

Adam followed Cristina out of the changing room and asked curiously.

You mean Meredith?

Cristina shook her head and said, "Dr. Shepherd dumped her, and this time it was a clean break."

"Yeah?"

Adam did not believe it.

"He didn't sign the divorce papers and told Meredith that Dr. Montgomery was his wife, so how could he divorce her?"

Cristina complained, "Shameless bastard! Why didn't he say this when we first met Meredith? Why didn't he say it right away when we confronted each other?"

He insisted on making Meredith swallow her pride and beg him to choose her, only then did he casually remark, as if Meredith were the villain who destroyed his family, and he was the most righteous one.

How dare you!

Adam's lips curled into a smile.

"What?"

Cristina looked over, puzzled.

"I mean, it would have been really cool if Dr. Shepherd had added 'how dare you' at the end."

Adam played with flavor.

"You know what?"

Cristina pondered it for a moment, then nodded and said, "Adding that last sentence certainly makes it even more absurd and ridiculous."

Emergency room.

"... Those media outlets brainwash children, instilling in them dirty and ridiculous ideas like 'I love you, you love me, we are a happy family'..."

As soon as Adam arrived, he heard a very familiar tone of voice.

Looking over there, I saw an African American man who looked a lot like Earl, the cashier from 2 Broke Girls, sitting there in Earl hospital gown, swearing and cursing in the same rapping tone that was typical of African Americans.

Joey has studied acting and learned that speaking clearly and precisely requires spitting out saliva, would be full of praise for his expertise if he were here.

"What's going on?"

Adam asked curiously.

"Yes..."

"Mr. Rake has uremia and needs dialysis, but because of his loose tongue, he has offended half of the medical staff in New York hospitals and cannot be admitted. He has to go to one hospital after another. Dr. Lewis is kind-hearted and admitted him."

The young nurse was about to speak when a young man in a white coat interrupted her. He recounted the whole story in one breath, then held up a coffee tray and looked at Adam ingratiatingly. "Dr. Duncan, a latte, please?"

"Sycophant!"

The young nurse glared indignantly at the young man.

"Who are you?"

Adam smiled and looked at the young man.

"My name is John Carter. I'm a senior at New York University School of Medicine and I'm here as a medical intern in the emergency room."

The young man put on the most appropriate smile.

"Thanks, Carter."

Adam accepted the latte, thanked her, and then handed it to the nurse.

"Thank you, Dr. Duncan."

The nurse immediately beamed with joy.

John Carter's face stiffened.

"Carter, since you're a medical intern, I, as a resident intern, will teach you your first lesson: never offend a nurse."

Adam smiled and patted Carter on the shoulder.

In hospitals, interns are the lowest-ranking doctors, but at least they can be called doctors, and are legitimate doctors.

Medical interns who come to the hospital for their junior and senior years can only be addressed as Mr. or Ms. So-and-so, and they really have no confidence at all in front of patients.

Of course, this excludes those who are exceptionally talented.

Attending Physician mentor resident physicians, resident physicians mentor intern physicians, and intern physicians mentor medical interns.

Level by level, with clear hierarchy.

John Carter set his sights on Adam as soon as he arrived, which shows he's perceptive and quick-witted.

"Thank you for your guidance, Dr. Duncan."

Carter quickly recovered and happily thanked Dr. Duncan, saying, "I hope Dr. Duncan will continue to guide me in the future."

"Hehe."

Adam smiled noncommittally and walked towards Susan Lewis.

"You're not good-looking, but you have a lot of dreams."

The nurse scoffed, "If you want to work with Dr. Duncan, then get in line."

"Queue?"

Upon hearing this, Carter, who was about to follow immediately, paused in his tracks and asked nervously, "Are there other medical interns who also want to work with Dr. Duncan?"

"I didn't count you as medical interns at all."

The young nurse proudly puffed out her chest. "Many interns want to get close to Dr. Duncan and learn more from him. Haven't you seen Dr. Duncan's open lectures?"

Dr. Duncan is a super genius doctor who can talk to legendary doctors!

There are rumors that Dr. Duncan was an attending Attending Physician disguised as an intern.

You're just a medical intern, and you think you can skip two levels and directly work under an 'Attending Physician' right after entering the hospital? You're just dreaming!

After saying that, he picked up the latte that Adam had offered as a gift, and drank it with relish, looking completely satisfied, as if it were the most delicious thing in the world.

John Carter stood there, looking lost and forlorn.

"If I were you, I wouldn't think so much."

The nurse glanced at him and advised, "First, learn more common sense so you don't make common sense mistakes. Dr. Duncan doesn't have time to teach you such basic things."

You can consult experienced senior nurses about this.

"Only when you can refute the opinions of the senior nurses can you dream of gaining Dr. Duncan's recognition and appreciation, and learning more knowledge and skills from him."

The relationship between interns and nurses is delicate.

At first, the nurses liked to call these newbies Bambi and often teased them about their clumsiness.

Of course, if these newbies can let go of their arrogance of "I went to medical school, I am a doctor," the nurses are willing to give them more guidance and help them grow faster.

This is the time when doctors are most humble and nurses are happiest.

This was also the time when the relationship between nurses and doctors was least strained and isolated.

It usually takes two or three months.

By the time the rookie doctors get through this period, the nurses will have shared all the experience they've accumulated over the years.

Then the turning point came.

When faced with a patient, the nurse habitually Bambi pointers, but by this time the rookies were already half-experienced and realized that the nurse's judgment was flawed.

After all, they have attended medical school and have richer theoretical knowledge, which is incomparable to nurses who accumulate experience little by little through practice.

Treating patients is both a duty and a right for doctors.

As a result, the interns began to contradict the nurses who had previously guided and helped them, and demanded that the nurses treat patients according to their diagnoses.

The nurses then realized that the good times were over again, and could only reply expressionlessly, "Yes, doctor."

After that, the vast majority of people chose to keep doctors and nurses separate, no longer chatting or laughing together, and not even sitting together for lunch.

Of course, this doesn't apply to couples who are attracted to each other and start dating.

Because they don't care about the issue of who is in charge and who is in charge.

Emmm.

Either way!

Not at all shameful!

If interns are like this, then medical interns who cannot yet be called doctors should be even more humble and eager to learn.

Otherwise, the experienced nurses would teach them a lesson in no time.

Thank you.

John Carter expressed his sincere gratitude and secretly resolved to master all the common sense as soon as possible, and then strive for the opportunity to learn from Adam.
