Chapter 13 - where even the experts would bow in admiration!

Chapter 13: A remarkable surgery, where even the experts would bow in admiration!Cai Song implored Dr. Zhang Fan to enter quickly, but Dr. Zhang Fan remained stationary, explaining the necessity of awaiting approval from the medical department.

Being from a different hospital, Dr. Zhang Fan understood the importance of respecting the protocols and boundaries of another hospital’s jurisdiction. He didn’t want to appear to be taking over the surgery or causing problems. Informing the hospital and obtaining proper permission were essential steps.

Cai Song became increasingly anxious upon hearing this. He asked, “Do we require someone else’s authorization for my mother’s surgery?” His concern for his mother’s well-being was evident in his tone.

Dr. Zhang Fan reassured him, saying, “Don’t worry. On my way here, I had already established a good rapport with the head of the medical department at City Hospital. Someone will arrive soon.”

Just as he said, the head of the medical department appeared within a minute. “Zhang, my old friend!”

“Chen, my buddy!” Sᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

The two warmly greeted each other and embraced, clearly showing familiarity.

“Haha, it was quite a journey for you to come to City Hospital this time. How about sharing some insights with our hospital’s surgery department later?” The head of the medical department suggested enthusiastically.

Dr. Zhang Fan was respected in the province’s gastroenterology department and held a prominent position in his field.

“No problem,” Dr. Zhang Fan replied with a wry smile. He understood that attempting to take over a surgery meant owing someone a favor, and he would have to repay that favor.

With the necessary approvals, Dr. Zhang Fan and Cai Song could now proceed into the operating room, confident that they had followed the proper procedures and established the appropriate relationships to ensure the best outcome for Granny’s surgery.

After some casual conversation and signing the agreement, Cai Song couldn’t help but question Director Chen about why an intern was assigned to perform the surgery for his seriously ill mother.

Director Chen was surprised by the revelation. He inwardly criticized the state of the emergency department, realizing there appeared to be a lack of communication or proper organization.

Worried, Director Chen turned to the emergency nurse and asked for clarification on who was performing the surgery. The nurse confirmed that Dr. Lin Feng expressed confidence in his ability to perform the surgery, and the patient agreed.

Upon hearing that it was Dr. Lin Feng, Director Chen felt relieved. He had closely observed the latter part of the previous surgery performed by Dr. Lin, where he displayed impressive skills that surpassed those of the Director of Cardiac Surgery. The medical department was considering how to reward Dr. Lin for his outstanding performance.

Director Chen believed that since Dr. Lin expressed confidence in performing the pancreatic laparoscopy, there shouldn’t be a problem. He reassured Cai Song, saying, “Don’t worry, our hospital won’t casually deceive patients.”

Still upset that an intern was performing the surgery, Cai Song retorted, “An intern performing the surgery, doesn’t that amount to deception?”

Director Chen smiled but neither confirmed nor denied Cai Song’s statement, leaving the matter open to interpretation.

Cai Song and Director Chen entered the emergency operating room, divided into two sections: an inner and an outer area.

In the outer section, several emergency doctors stood, observing the surgery process through a live broadcast.

Director Chen scolded them, reminding them of their primary responsibilities. He said, “You don’t need to watch. Go and attend to the patients.”

Realizing their mistake, the emergency doctors quickly left the operating room to fulfill their duties.

As Cai Song anxiously urged Dr. Zhang Fan to hurry, Zhang Fan remained rooted in place, his attention fixed on the live broadcast of the surgery.

He was intrigued by the impressive display of surgical skills unfolding before his eyes. Significant necrotic tissue adhering to surrounding tissues posed a formidable challenge for the surgery.

Yet the lead surgeon, Lin Feng, skillfully manipulated the graspers and dissecting forceps, demonstrating high mastery in his movements. Every action was executed precisely and fluidly as if performed by a seasoned expert. Zhang Fan couldn’t help but be amazed by the surgeon’s extraordinary technique.

Equally astonishing was the minimal bleeding observed during the procedure. Despite the complexities involved, the amount of bleeding appeared remarkably low, around 10 ml. Such controlled bleeding was a rarity in surgeries of this kind.

Zhang Fan’s initial hesitation and skepticism dissipated as he witnessed Lin Feng’s skillful performance. He started recognizing that this young intern possessed surgical expertise that warranted attention and respect.

Turning to Cai Song, Zhang Fan spoke with newfound confidence: “We should trust in Dr. Lin’s abilities. From my observation, he handles the surgery with remarkable skill and precision.”

Though still concerned, Cai Song could sense the growing assurance in Zhang Fan’s voice. He understood that time was of the essence, and putting their faith in the capable hands of Dr. Lin was their best course of action.

Together, they watched the live broadcast, their anxiety gradually giving way to a glimmer of hope. The operating room became a stage where expertise and determination intertwined, with the outcome hanging in the balance.

Zhang Fan’s astonishment grew as he witnessed the exceptional skills demonstrated by the lead surgeon, Lin Feng. The precision and expertise displayed during the laparoscopic surgery surpassed his abilities, leaving him in awe.

Gradually, Zhang Fan began questioning the assumption that Dr. Lin was merely an intern. Lin Feng’s mastery level in handling such a challenging procedure was far beyond what one would expect from an intern.

As doubts filled his mind, Zhang Fan couldn’t help but wonder, “Who is this masterful surgeon? Could a renowned expert have taken charge of the surgery?”

The possibility of a highly skilled specialist performing the surgery started to take shape in Zhang Fan’s thoughts. It seemed more plausible than accepting the notion of an intern possessing such remarkable surgical prowess.

With newfound curiosity and admiration, Zhang Fan decided to investigate further. He made up his mind to discover the identity of the surgeon who had captivated him with their extraordinary skills. He was determined to unravel the mystery of Dr. Lin’s true background.

While Zhang Fan was momentarily lost in his thoughts, Cai Song’s please brought him back to the present. Understanding the urgency and concern in Cai Song’s voice, Zhang Fan assured him that the current surgeon was highly skilled and capable. He accepted that he couldn’t match the expertise demonstrated by the surgeon, but he believed in the doctor’s ability to save Cai Song’s mother.

Cai Song, still feeling uncertain, questioned Zhang Fan’s assurance. He couldn’t fully trust the capabilities of an intern, especially considering the gravity of his mother’s condition.

While maintaining his composure, Zhang Fan reiterated his belief in the current surgeon and emphasized that if the surgeon couldn’t save Cai Song’s mother, he would likely face the same challenge.

Cai Song fell silent, torn between his doubts and the trust he wanted to place in Zhang Fan. The live broadcast of the surgery continued to capture everyone’s attention, including Director Chen, who had been observing closely.

The surgical skills displayed were exceptional, matching the previous surgery’s excellence. Director Chen’s admiration for Dr. Lin Feng grew even stronger. He acknowledged that his initial salary offer of $500,000 was inadequate for someone with Dr. Lin’s expertise.

Given his cardiac and pancreatic surgery proficiency, Director Chen believed Dr. Lin deserved an annual salary of $1 million. Recognizing the competitive landscape for talent retention, Director Chen was determined to discuss the matter seriously with the hospital director to ensure they could secure Dr. Lin’s services by offering a more enticing compensation package.

As the surgery progressed, Zhang Fan, Cai Song, and Director Chen were engrossed in the surgical skill display. Their ideas and actions were shaped by the awe-inspiring abilities of Dr. Lin Feng, leaving a lasting impact on their perceptions and decisions moving forward.
