Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital

Chapter 103: A Heavyweight Patient from Obstetrics


Just when Xu Man Ni wanted to say more to Zhao Heng, the operating room nurse Sun Li walked into the office, stood in front of Zhao Heng, and said, "Dr. Zhao, there's a consultation in obstetrics."

"Okay."

Zhao Heng nodded. When it comes to an obstetric consultation, it's likely about the pre-operative anesthesia for a caesarean section.

Minimizing the unfinished thesis on the computer, Zhao Heng stood up, left the office, and headed towards the obstetrics department.

After Zhao Heng left the office, Sun Li then turned to Xu Man Ni and said, "Man Ni, your man is quite the sought-after talent in all surgical departments now. Look, now people are specifically asking for him to consult."

In the operating room, while there are nurses like Ding Minjun, who flattered Xu Man Ni for certain purposes, there are also true friends like Sun Li, who got along well with Xu Man Ni.

"What? You're envious?"

Xu Man Ni glanced at Sun Li, smiled, and said.

The way Xu Man Ni spoke with Sun Li was completely different from the cold demeanor she had with Ding Minjun.

"There's not a single nurse in the operating room who wouldn't be envious, to be honest."

Sun Li replied in a slightly bad-tempered tone.

In the hospital, there is an unspoken notion that a nurse marrying a doctor is considered marrying well.

Generally, doctors from the same department don't discuss marriage with nurses.

Someone like Xu Man Ni, finding such a young and handsome guy like Zhao Heng, who also has a high possibility of becoming a top medical expert in the future, is pretty much seen as the perfect match all nurses dream of.

"You also need to hold on tight. A good man like him, who knows how many people have their eyes on him now."

After a slight pause, Sun Li added with concern.

Being able to hang out with Xu Man Ni meant Sun Li's overall qualities weren't much lacking compared to Xu Man Ni.

Just like in school, top students only played with top students, while average ones stuck together.

"Song Chen has already gone abroad. As for the others, do you think they can match up to me?"

Xu Man Ni said with great confidence.

Of course, with her qualities, she had this confidence as well.

"What if Song Chen comes back one day?"

Sun Li asked again.

"Once you go abroad, it's not that easy to come back. Besides, by then, maybe I'll even have a child."

Xu Man Ni said nonchalantly.

One could say that Song Chen left at the perfect time.

If Song Chen were still around, she definitely wouldn't have progressed so smoothly with Zhao Heng.

"You sure think long-term. But are you really planning to have his children?"

Sun Li felt the change in Xu Man Ni was too drastic, from being against marriage, romance, and childbearing, to suddenly becoming the model of a good wife and mother.

"Are you trying to ask why I've changed so much? In the past, I just hadn't met the right person. Once you meet the right person, everything falls into place."

Xu Man Ni smiled and said.

"Alright, as long as you're happy."

Seeing Xu Man Ni so deeply into it, Sun Li seemed to sense a whiff of love in the air.

Meanwhile, in the obstetrics department.

Doctor's office.

"Dr. Zhao, you're here."

Seeing Zhao Heng enter the office, the obstetric attending doctor He Wei said.

"Yes."

Zhao Heng nodded.

Speaking of it, except for his internship, this was the first time he came to obstetrics.

Among all surgical departments, obstetrics is a very special one. The relationship between obstetric surgery and anesthesia, as well as the number of operations, far surpasses other surgical departments.

After all, painless delivery and caesarean sections have nearly become a marketing strategy for modern obstetrics.

For it to be painless, anesthesia must be properly administered.

Therefore, this is also why a good anesthesiologist is in such high demand.

"Dr. He, let's see the patient first."

Zhao Heng said to He Wei.

To be honest, he was also very curious. From an anesthesia perspective, the difficulty of anesthesia for a caesarean section is not high; a general anesthesiologist can handle it. Invitation for Zhao Heng's consultation likely meant there was a problem that regular anesthesiologists couldn't solve.

"Okay, Dr. Zhao, follow me."

He Wei nodded and replied.

This was her first time working with Zhao Heng, but she had heard many rumors about him before.

Regarding such a notable figure, the usually indifferent He Wei couldn't help but take another look.

Before long, He Wei took Zhao Heng to a ward.

Sss!

Upon entering the ward, Zhao Heng couldn't help but gasp at the scene in front of him.

Because he saw that although it was a double room, the two beds were pushed together, and lying on them was more a mountain of flesh than a person.

Around the bed sat another massive individual, appearing to weigh at least three hundred pounds.

"Dr. Zhao, this is the expectant mother."

He Wei said to Zhao Heng, with a trace of helplessness in her expression.

One could say that during her long tenure as an obstetrician, He Wei had encountered obese expectant mothers before, but someone this extremely obese, weighing at least three hundred pounds, was a first.

Looking again at this super expectant mother's thick layer of abdominal fat, He Wei couldn't imagine what kind of scalpel would be needed to cut through such a thick fat layer.

"Dr. He."

Upon seeing He Wei enter, Xiaohong, the super expectant mother struggling even to turn on the bed, greeted He Wei.

And Xiaohong's husband, also a super overweight individual, stood up as well.

Standing up, Zhao Heng clearly saw his flesh shaking like waves.

"This is Dr. Zhao, here for your anesthesia assessment."

He Wei introduced Zhao Heng to Xiaohong.

"Hello, Dr. Zhao."

Xiaohong and her husband quickly said.

Before coming to Eastern Hospital, Xiaohong and her husband had already visited numerous hospitals.

Almost every hospital indicated they couldn't administer anesthesia to a patient of Xiaohong's size.

Given Xiaohong's physical condition, coupled with prenatal checks, she not only suffered from pregnancy-induced hypertension but had a narrow pelvis, essentially ruling out the feasibility of natural delivery.

So, to have this baby, Xiaohong and her husband had no choice but to turn to Eastern Hospital; it was almost their last hope.

If the doctors at Eastern Hospital couldn't provide anesthesia and surgery, the couple might have to painfully give up the child.

However, this outcome was certainly unacceptable to Xiaohong and her husband, who had longed for a child for years.

Zhao Heng nodded and picked up the medical record to review carefully.

However, after only looking briefly, Zhao Heng's expression grew serious.

Due to excessive obesity, the patient not only had severe pregnancy-induced hypertension but also myocardial hypertrophy. It's clear that at this level of obesity, the cardiac load must be substantial.

Having reviewed the medical record, Zhao Heng proceeded with a physical examination.

Peeling back the patient's back for a look, Zhao Heng was momentarily bewildered, as he estimated that the thickness of the fat layer on the patient's back might exceed the length of the puncture needle.
