Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Chapter 105: [Tech requirements high 1]
 

After shouting that surgery was needed, Director Lv turned back to explain to the patient’s family, “The situation with your mother is like this. I made a promise to her before, as she said your father is working away and can’t come home, I promised your father to take care of the New Year’s Eve dinner first, and everything else can be discussed later. The elderly in your family, due to their age, need this reunion dinner the most. So, if there’s any disease that requires examination, we’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

“Is that so?” The female patient’s son was surprised after hearing what Director Lv said, his mind a little confused. This meant that it was unclear whether what Director Lv had said before, to do as his mother had requested, was good or bad, whether it was the advice of a good doctor or a bad doctor.

“I understand your mother’s feelings. The New Year’s celebration is too important for everyone, very important for your mother and your family. But now, your mother’s condition has changed, as you have seen. I was originally thinking of suggesting to send your mother abroad for surgery, but with her tumor in a critical state right now, we can’t keep delaying, nor can we wait to go abroad.”

“Tumor!” The female patient’s son exclaimed, his anxious gaze turning towards the doctors, “What will happen to my mother?”

“Don’t be nervous, don’t be nervous.” Director Lv patted his shoulder, comforting him.

Huang Zhilei adjusted his glasses and could only think of rolling his eyes at Director Lv’s behavior.

To make amends after a loss—there were few who could do it to the extent of Director Lv. Director Lv’s prowess lay in his ability to suddenly perform a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree attitude reversal.

“You didn’t say it was a tumor before!” the female patient’s son yelled.

“We hadn’t done an examination before,” Director Lv replied.

“Why didn’t you carry out an examination for my mother?” the female patient’s son regained his senses and questioned him.

“Didn’t I tell you? Your mother requested it this way. I am a doctor, but at the same time, I must respect your mother’s wishes. If your mother hadn’t had an attack, it would have been possible to delay the examination until tomorrow. The situation in your family is the real question here,” Director Lv said meaningfully, “It wasn’t that I refused to check your mother, but based on her previous demands, which everyone saw, she didn’t want to be examined, and no one could force her to be hospitalized for it.”

“My mother—she—” the female patient’s son hesitated, unsure of how to speak well of his mother. The fact was that she had been determined not to get checked, which everyone had seen, and even as her son, his urging was useless and led to arguments.

If the female patient continued to refuse an examination, she would definitely bear the responsibility. In that case, it couldn’t be said that the doctor was at fault—she had been offered an examination and refused, essentially choosing her own fate.

But where did the problem lie? The female patient’s son felt a bitter taste in his heart, sensing his mother appeared to have acted in an indescribably foolish way. Ultimately, the only consolation was that someone persisted, insisted that his mother get examined.

So the female patient’s son suddenly snapped to clarity, looking towards Cao Yong, Xie Wanying, and the other doctors.

To get his stubborn mother to seek medical attention and undergo an examination required not just a persistent doctor but also a very, very clever one who knew how to persuade his stubborn mother to be checked.

A patient’s temperament might be abnormal precisely because of their illness. When relatives bring a patient to see a doctor, they are seeking the doctor’s help. The relatives themselves are helpless concerning the patient, and the doctor should provide the most effective solution.
