Chapter 21 She is Actually an Attending Physician
“You really know medicine?” There was astonishment in his tone.
Hilda sneered. “Dr. Lopez, have you lost your mind? How could this little girl understand medicine? She must have heard about the symptoms from a nurse.”
“Dr. Gibson, she just arrived. We haven’t had a chance to talk to her yet,” the nurse
explained.
Hilda turned. “So what? How old is she? Barely out of school, right? Does she have a license to treat patients?”
Without saying a word, Wynter slapped her medical license onto the chair. Not only that, but her medical license was also at the level of an attending physician!
Anyone who had studied medicine knew how difficult it was to obtain the title of attending physician! Now, who dared to say she wasn’t qualified?
Hilda felt embarrassed by this revelation.
Doctors and nurses couldn’t believe it. “An attending physician? In Southdale, that’s almost at the level of a professor… She’s so young. How did she achieve that?”
Confronting Hilda, Wynter said, “Move aside.”
Hilda’s face turned pale as she examined the license, questioning its authenticity.
Meanwhile, Ryan had already accompanied Wynter into the ward.
Sergio was also getting ready. Even some nurses who usually avoided crossing Hilda were pitching in. They all wanted to save the patient with every passing moment.
Hilda looked on viciously, realizing that no one had ever embarrassed her like this in the hospital before.
“Let her handle it. I want to see who will cover for her if things go wrong!” Hilda was scheming.
She had listened to Sergio’s words and suspected that the patient’s condition was challenging.
She had her reasons for stepping back.
Poor patients often came with complex issues that didn’t yield much profit and carried significant risks.

Since Wynter enjoyed being in the spotlight, she hoped she would mess up and cause trouble
When the patient’s family arrived, it would be quite a show,
As far as she knew, the patient’s family hadn’t signed the consent form yet. Wynter wouldn’t have a chance to turn things around if something went wrong!
“You all, turn on the video recording equipment in the emergency room.” Hilda’s voice was sarcastic. “But don’t let anything happen, or let our hospital be responsible.”
Due to the special circumstances, this medical treatment had attracted a lot of attention,
In the emergency room, Wynter had donned a medical mask and sterile clothing.
Standing by the patient’s bed, she worked methodically, exuding professionalism.
“Do we have the patient’s chest X–ray?” Wynter asked.
“We do.” Sergio immediately handed it over.
Wynter took it and said calmly, “Large lobar pneumonia, accompanied by heart failure.”
“Yes!” Sergio nodded.
She opened the medicine box. “Report the patient’s underlying diseases and previous medications.”
“The patient is 78 years old, with several underlying diseases, including coronary heart disease, hypertension, and urinary tract infections,” Sergio reported. “The challenge is that the patient is allergic to many antibiotics, so we can’t use them recklessly.”
Wynter didn’t panic upon hearing this. She just rolled up the patient’s sleeve. “As expected.”
Sergio was shocked. “This is…”
“A tick bite,” Wynter said lightly.
The doctors and nurses in the observation room all widened their eyes.
“We checked for so long and didn’t notice this wound.”
“It’s too small to see, right?”
“But how did she know?”
“I’m not sure, but she’s amazing. She rolled up the sleeve, confirming the tick bite at a glance. She’s imposing!”
