Chapter 818 - 819: No Guarantees
Let alone that Nianyang simply can’t perform surgery on her husband right now.
Even if it could be done, there’s no guarantee that he can definitely be saved, right?
Yes, they are doctors, and their responsibility is to save patients.
But even if Hua Tuo were alive, he wouldn’t dare guarantee that he could save a patient, let alone performing surgery, which involves all sorts of unexpected occurrences.
Doctors will do their best to save lives, will try to ensure the patient’s safety, but cannot guarantee one hundred percent that no accidents will happen.
Ma Shu frowned tightly, this woman’s attitude was really infuriating, constrained by his role as a doctor, he finally opened his mouth and said, "I’m sorry, the surgery for your husband, our clinic’s Divine Doctor can’t perform it, you’d better go to another hospital."
"What do you mean she can’t do it?" The woman’s voice suddenly rose, her face twisted and stiff, her eyes bloodshot, "How could she not be able to do it, she is a doctor, there’s a patient now, how can she not do it."
Ma Shu was speechless, "Even if she’s a doctor, she’s still human, right? She has her own schedule; do you think performing surgery is like eating or drinking, that you can do it whenever you want?"
The woman screamed and yelled maniacally, "I don’t care, I have a patient here, the doctor should save the patient. Where is that Divine Doctor, no matter what she’s doing now, she must immediately see my husband, or I will report you for being doctors that don’t save patients. What right do you have to be doctors?"
As expected, older rich women are always so unreasonable and willful. Nianyang is still in surgery, Ma Shu didn’t want to cause trouble, so he tried to keep his peace and said, "It’s not that the Divine Doctor won’t save, she just doesn’t have time. She’s currently performing surgery on a patient, and she’s not an Immortal; she doesn’t have extra hands, where would she get the time and space to perform surgery on your husband?"
The woman was momentarily dumbfounded, not expecting to be so unfortunate that she came when the Divine Doctor was operating on another patient.
She asked irritably, "Then when can she finish?"
Ma Shu replied, "She only went in an hour ago, she won’t be out anytime soon, and even if she comes out, her energy isn’t enough to support her in completing a surgery for your husband that will take at least a dozen hours!"
During surgery, fatigue is most feared, a doctor’s spiritual power is extremely important, and they can only take on one surgery per day at most. Taking on more can easily lead to medical malpractice.
Upon hearing this, the woman was unwilling to accept it, loudly clamoring, "No, my husband can’t wait any longer, you ask her to save my husband first, put aside the patient she’s currently working on. There are priorities, my husband is so seriously injured, there’s no reason not to save my husband first!"
Ma Shu was almost amused with anger, is that how you use priority? Can you categorize treatment like this?
The surgery has already started, even a fool knows that you can’t interrupt a surgery in progress, and yet she wants Nianyang to stop midway to perform surgery on her husband!
Obviously, the woman couldn’t hear reason from Ma Shu, people are selfish, not to mention she’s a wealthy lady from the aristocratic circle, even more self-centered. She arrogantly declared, "I’ll say it again, have the Divine Doctor save my husband. I can pay double the money, more than the patient she’s saving now. Money talks, everyone has to step aside; you get her out to perform surgery on my husband now!"
