Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Chapter 235: Tricked by a family member Chapter 235: Tricked by a family member Sun Yubo shook his head at his senior: I really don’t know what happened.

“Let’s go, check on the patient,” Tan Kelin suddenly spoke up. His voice was never loud, but the loud snap of the medical chart cover closing was enough for everyone to sense his considerable anger.

Everyone instantly fell silent.

Luo Yanfen and the other two looked at Xie Wanying with fury in their eyes: You caused trouble and made the teacher angry as soon as you got here.

The main point was that after being scolded by the teacher, Xie Wanying’s face remained calm.

Xie Wanying felt that Teacher Tan wasn’t too bad; he was predictable. What’s truly scary were doctors like Dr. Zhang, who calculated in their minds how to torment their students.

The group headed to the wards.

Without further ado, Teacher Tan led everyone to check on bed number 3 first.

“Did he start feeling unwell after lunch yesterday?”

“Didn’t we say he could only have liquids? The hospital provided liquids for him to drink,” the patient’s wife answered.

“Stomach pain?” Tan Kelin lifted the patient’s gown and pressed on the upper left abdomen just below the sternal notch.

The male patient looked pale, with bluish lips, and he frowned as the doctor pressed.

“Turn the oxygen up a bit more,” Tan Kelin ordered.

Dr. Xiao Sun ran to increase the oxygen, his face also taut with tension. That was because supervising the medical students was usually his responsibility.

“Why didn’t you tell us you were feeling unwell yesterday at noon?” Luo Yanfen asked anxiously, questioning both the patient and his family, “Didn’t we tell you? If anything happens, you should ring the bell or call the nurse.”

The patient’s family clarified: “He said it wasn’t very painful, and Doctor Sun mentioned that he was supposed to have surgery tomorrow. It was only this morning when Dr. Xie came to ask about his condition and said he seemed to have some stomach pain that my husband nodded.”

The patient was afraid of delaying the surgery, so he dared not mention the pain.

All the doctors were left absolutely dumbfounded.

Luo Yanfen turned away, fuming with anger at the patient and his family.

She thought about how these patients and their families only cared about themselves, not saying a word, not realizing this not only delayed their own treatment but also got the medical students in trouble for being scolded.

Using the stethoscope to listen to the patient’s heart and lungs again, Tan Kelin led the others out of the ward.

A group of people stood in a corner of the corridor, and seeing Tan Kelin’s silent expression, they all realized the seriousness of the situation. Others guessed that Xie Wanying’s opinion of him was probably accurate.

Liu Chengran said: “We might need to notify the anesthesiology department that the surgery needs to be changed to an exploratory laparotomy tomorrow.”

“Alright, you go tell the anesthesiology department,” Tan Kelin replied.

Liu Chengran personally went to the nurse station to inform the nurse, change medical orders, and contact the anesthesiology department.

The nurses panicked upon learning of the situation.

Several interns hadn’t noticed, and neither had the nurses? The head nurse, when passing by Tan Kelin in the ward, didn’t dare to look at him and just ran by with her head down.

Dr. Xiao Sun hung his head low.

Soon after, the head nurse ran over and stood in front of Tan Kelin, asking in a low voice: “Dr. Tan, when did the incident with bed 3 happen? I need to investigate.”

“First get tonight’s shift handover done properly. Don’t let anything happen tonight,” Tan Kelin responded tersely.

He seemed not to be criticizing or blaming anyone, but the shorter the words, the more terrifying they were, the implication was clear: if something else happened—
The head nurse felt her scalp go numb and hurried to the ward to understand the situation.

Glimpsing the retreating figure of the head nurse, Tan Kelin, who had turned back, one hand on his hip, pinned Xie Wanying with a piercing stare: This is the newcomer?
