Chapter 100: I Want to Change the Doctor
After listening to Jeffrey Foster’s words, she went to get her competition number and the corresponding operating room.
In the past few years, the Cardiac Surgery Department of Sincere Hospital became very famous. Therefore, the most doctors signed up for the cardiac surgery in this medical competition.
Many young doctors participated with the hope that even if they could not win a prize, they could still get guidance from old professors. Abigail was just a freshman at Swallow City Medical University. Plus, her appearance, even with the recommendation letter from the Piers family, did not make her stand out.
The number she got was also at the back.
This competition recruited many volunteers, mostly poor patients who could not afford medical expenses. The entire surgery process was live-streamed, and post-surgery care would also be fully responsible.
Then, according to the patients’ medical conditions and the participating doctors’ personal resumes, the surgery tasks were assigned, and she would advance step by step.
Abigail was assigned an ordinary patient who cut his calf in a car accident. He did not pay attention to the wound, which festered and suppurated.
As required, Abigail changed into a white coat. However, she did not know that after she got the corresponding number, the shadow following her quietly left.
After changing her clothes, Abigail went to the ward to communicate with the patient.
The patient was a woman in her fifties. When she saw Abigail, she was first stunned, then cursed, “Isn’t this a medical competition? I am a volunteer, not a guinea pig. How did you find such a fat bitch to treat me? What if she messes up my leg?”
Abigail did not expect to encounter this kind of situation and smiled gently at the woman, “Auntie, don’t worry. Although I am fat, it does not mean my medical skills are poor. You can trust me.”
“Trust you? How can I trust you? You look so clumsy. Get out. I want to change doctors. Don’t think you can fool me with a fat bitch just because I don’t have to pay!” The woman did not listen to Abigail at all and kept yelling.
Her attitude was quite unyielding.
Abigail frowned. In her previous life, although she was also questioned by various patients, most of them changed their attitudes immediately after hearing her name due to her impressive resume.
But now she had nothing. No good looks. No proud family background. No remarkable resume. All she had was medical skills that she would never forget for the rest of her life and a body full of fat that made people look down on her.
“Auntie, your wound has already festered. If it is not treated, it will easily get infected. If it becomes serious, it might lead to a disability.” Abigail ignored the woman’s unreasonable behavior and looked at her injured leg, giving a very objective evaluation.
Moreover, she felt that there might be small glass fragments in the wound that were not cleaned out. Otherwise, it would not fester so severely.
But no matter how sincerely Abigail spoke, the woman did not listen at all. “Do you think I am that easily fooled? You fat bitch. You know your medical skills are poor, and you are deliberately scaring me, trying to mess up my leg and avoid responsibility, right? Somebody, I want to change doctors, get me another one!”
The woman in her fifties cursed loudly, and Abigail rubbed her forehead.
She did not expect that the competition would encounter such a difficult situation right at the start. The competition would advance step by step based on the difficulty of the surgery. She could only proceed to the second round if she completed this surgery and received a score of over ninety points.
But the current situation made the first round troublesome.
Seeing that Abigail did not leave, the woman glanced outside the ward and suddenly shouted, “Help, oh help, this hospital is deceiving people, asking someone who knows nothing to treat my leg. This is not treating the leg. It’s using us volunteers as experiments. It’s killing people without concern for lives…”
Instantly, a group of people gathered outside the ward, and the scene became somewhat uncontrollable.
