"What’s going on? What are you doing? Why haven't you let the patient in yet?!" Chen Wenbin said with displeasure.
He had been hoping to break the hospital's single-person monthly income record.
He had roughly calculated earlier that, at this diagnostic speed, he could earn over two hundred thousand yuan a month!
Thinking about earning over two hundred thousand in commission within his first month back in the country, Chen Wenbin couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
"There are no patients outside the door," Chang Wei replied.
"What? No patients? Are you kidding me?" Chen Wenbin stood up with a grim expression and walked towards the door.
However, when he saw the situation outside, his expression also froze, filled with surprise.
"What… what's going on?! Where did those patients outside go?" Chen Wenbin asked the doctors in protective suits standing outside the door.
"Dr. Chen, Dr. Chen!" Suddenly, a young man in the corridor outside called out to Chen Wenbin.
Chen Wenbin pushed aside the doctor at the door and stepped out of the consultation room.
When he clearly saw the young man and the young woman calling him from outside, he asked in confusion, "Didn't I ask you to get the medicine? Why are you still here? Also, where did the patients outside go? Why is no one here?"
The young man pointed at Chen Mo indignantly: "Dr. Chen, it was him. He insisted my wife had tuberculosis, notified the hospital to seal off this floor, and locked all the patients in that room."
"What did you say?!" Chen Wenbin was instantly enraged upon hearing this.
His gaze fell on Chen Mo: "Chen Mo, what do you mean? Are you jealous that I have more patients than you, a director, so you're using such despicable means to obstruct me from treating people?!"
Chen Mo frowned slightly, "Despicable? Dr. Chen, aren't you referring to yourself? Misdiagnosis and prescribing expensive medication to patients, is that how you practice medicine?"
"Me, despicable? Chen Mo, believe it or not, I'll report you to the dean! Don't think you're so great just because you have some background and got this director position through shady means. Compared to me, you're far behind! A piece of trash who hasn't even graduated college, I really don't know where you get the nerve to accuse me of misdiagnosis!"
"Dr. Chen, what are you arguing about?" Suddenly, Jiang Hongwen, wearing a protective suit, also walked over.
"Vice President Jiang? Why are you guys dressed like this? Do you actually believe what this kid says?" Chen Wenbin looked astonished.
Jiang Hongwen looked at Chen Mo, "Director Chen, are you sure this patient has tuberculosis?"
Chen Mo nodded, "Certain."
Chen Wenbin sneered, "Ridiculous! You haven't done any examinations, not even lab reports, how can you be so sure?"
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"Just now, this doctor felt my pulse and said I had tuberculosis. Is… is this true or not?" The woman also seemed a bit flustered.
"Hahaha!"
Chen Wenbin suddenly burst into laughter, "Chen Mo, you just felt her pulse and dared to conclude she has tuberculosis?"
"That's right," Chen Mo admitted.
"Pfft!" Chen Wenbin couldn't help but laugh again.
Even Jiang Hongwen, standing beside them, frowned slightly, "Director Chen, can you be sure she has tuberculosis? This is not something to joke about, or the consequences will be severe."
Chen Mo stated with certainty again, "I said I'm sure. If you don't believe me, take her for a chest CT scan, and you'll know. If I'm not mistaken, she already has tuberculous empyema."
"Tch, that's impossible!" Chen Wenbin said dismissively.
He then added, "Chen Mo, because of your jealousy today, so many patients have been delayed in treatment, wasting their precious time and a lot of medical resources. If she's fine, let's see how you explain this to these patients and the hospital!"
Chen Mo looked at Chen Wenbin, "If she is confirmed to have tuberculosis, and because of your misdiagnosis, so many people need to be quarantined, Dr. Chen, I'd like to ask, how will you explain yourself?"
"Enough!" Jiang Hongwen waved his hand with a frown.
Only then did the two stop.
"Take the patient for a chest CT scan now. If confirmed, the hospital will be locked down, and all quarantined personnel will be allowed to leave after confirming there is no risk," Jiang Hongwen ordered.
Soon, escorted by doctors in protective suits, the woman was taken to the CT room.
"Director Chen, good luck." Seeing the CT scan about to begin, Chen Wenbin glanced at Chen Mo mockingly.
Chen Mo completely ignored Chen Wenbin; his mind was entirely focused on how to save the woman before him.
After a few minutes, clear images appeared on the computer screen.
As a respiratory physician, Chen Wenbin was stunned the moment he saw the images.
Because the CT scan showed a large area of shadows in the patient's lungs, indicating that a large portion of her lung tissue had been infected and diseased!
"How… how is this possible!" Chen Wenbin looked utterly incredulous.
Jiang Hongwen's expression also changed drastically, as he too understood what these shadow areas represented.
"Such a large area of empyema, the severity of this tuberculosis is beyond our imagination!" Jiang Hongwen was also startled by the images.
Then Jiang Hongwen ordered, "Notify the hospital. Immediately screen all medical staff and anyone who has come into contact with these two individuals! We must contain the spread risk here!"
"Yes, Vice President Jiang!" The two doctors following Jiang Hongwen quickly responded.
"Director Chen, Director Chen."
Jiang Hongwen quickly looked at Chen Mo.
As for Chen Wenbin, Jiang Hongwen didn't even spare him a glance now!
"Vice President Jiang," Chen Mo finally came back to his senses.
"Director Chen, what should we do now? The patient's condition is quite serious," Jiang Hongwen's expression was exceptionally grave.
"Let's perform surgery first. I'll write a prescription for everyone who has come into contact with them to drink. The transmission route of this disease is quite singular, so we only need to screen key individuals," Chen Mo picked up a pen and wrote down the names of some traditional Chinese medicine ingredients on a piece of paper.
"Alright, I'll arrange it immediately." Jiang Hongwen certainly had no doubts about Chen Mo now.
"Vice President Jiang, please explain to her husband that she needs immediate surgery, or her life will be in danger at any moment," Chen Mo instructed.
Jiang Hongwen nodded, while Chen Mo quickly left the CT room and headed towards the hospital's operating room.
Outside the door, the young man was still waiting anxiously.
Seeing Chen Mo leave in a hurry, the young man looked confused.
Then, seeing Vice President Jiang and Chen Wenbin come out, he hurried forward and asked with dissatisfaction, "Dr. Chen, is my wife okay? Was that doctor misdiagnosing?"
"I saw him run off in a hurry just now. Is he too ashamed to face us? Your hospital really has some peculiar doctors! Do you know how much time you've wasted for us!"
