Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 1848: Gratitude

Staring at her brother’s wordless expression, Little Sister Luo recalled the past.

Years ago, they lost their parents. Their parents were in a car accident, and the driver at fault was quickly caught. The arriving ambulance, aware of the critical condition of the patients, sent their parents directly to the city hospital’s emergency room.

When the siblings heard the news and rushed to the city hospital, they were astonished to learn that despite reaching the city hospital, their parents’ lives couldn’t be saved. The city hospital required them to transfer the injured to a larger city’s hospital. At that time, managing not to send the injured to the county hospital but to the city hospital had already exhausted the resources of their village chief and all their connections.

This situation was very similar to Xie Wanying’s experience before her rebirth with her grandpa. They sent her grandpa to the best hospital in the city, only to find out the doctors admitted their skills were inadequate and refused to operate. Xie Wanying herself had no other resources to transfer her grandpa to a higher-level hospital. As a doctor, she knew her grandpa still had a chance if a doctor was willing to operate, but in the end, she could only watch helplessly as her loved one was dragged to death in the lower hospital’s emergency room.

The Luo Family Siblings faced the same situation, crying and begging in the emergency room, but no one could help them. In the end, the siblings watched as their mom and dad died one after another in the emergency room without having surgery.

The worst was their dad, who was delayed in the hospital’s emergency room for a full ten hours and didn’t manage to get transferred before he died.

The driver at fault was sentenced. The problem was that their parents originally had a chance to live, but who could they complain to for the missed chance caused by the hospital’s delays? The police said they couldn’t handle issues involving doctors.

The doctors’ seemingly indifferent responses were identical to those at the district hospital she visited earlier, merely telling them to find other doctors to save lives. But where could they find resources to locate other doctors? This time she almost ended up like her dad, except she met a seemingly kind doctor who helped her transfer hospitals.

Thinking of this, Little Sister Luo looked up and, upon seeing Xie Wanying enter, immediately called out, "Dr. Xie."

Whether the patient and their family members were truly bad people or not could be told from Little Sister Luo’s grateful tone; in reality, these siblings were not bad at all. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Brother Luo stiffened, unable to swallow his pride. He recalled last night in the emergency room, where this female doctor surprisingly held back from reporting him to the police, making him feel rather embarrassed.

Was this person good or bad? Hu Hao said that the person who wanted his sister to have an abortion should have been a villain, but why help his sister transfer to another hospital? Why cover up his crime? Brother Luo was bewildered.

Doctor Peng sighed helplessly once more, having just understood the cause of the siblings’ misplaced anger.

In clinical practice, it’s common to encounter relatives who blame doctors when their demands for medical treatment aren’t met, and their thoughts can be considered human nature. Doctors, hailed as angels of salvation inside their white coats, often shirk their responsibilities during a patient’s crucial life-saving moments. Even for those unfamiliar with the field, and indeed for doctors themselves, many of the current medical systems seem unreasonable.

It should never be the responsibility of the relatives to handle the transfer themselves. Based on the patient’s condition, the patient should be transferred up the levels of hospitals accordingly. Those top-tier, grade-A hospitals shouldn’t accept ordinary patients; they should specialize in treating complex, serious conditions. This involves a professional term called tiered diagnosis and treatment.
