I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

A Surgeon Who Became a Hate (506): A side story

Reputation is made by the media (1)

Although Han Jin-soo treats meticulously and meticulously, I kept wanting to perform something plausible surgery in front of such people.

“Oh!”

“also!”

“Hehehe, to catch the bleeding so easily!”

“amazing!”

“…..”

In the meantime, when the doctors suddenly exclaimed, Nurse Song tilted her head.

‘Why are you admiring it so much? What’s so great about stopping the bleeding with a hemostatic agent?’

The blood that flowed from the child’s forearm was a little excessive, but I couldn’t understand why they were so admiring it, since this amount of bleeding had been easily caught up until now.

There were several other people besides Nurse Song who were puzzled by the surprise of the doctors.

One of them, nurse Kim Ji-ji, cautiously asked Eul Yeon-kyung, who was next to her.

“Doctor. Why are foreign doctors suddenly so admiring?”

“Ah, the director caught the bleeding in a unique way, and I was surprised to find out.”

“It seems to me that the hemorrhage was caused by a hemostatic agent… is that not the case?”

“I would have been so surprised if I had taken only the hemostatic agent. I was surprised to see it caught in a different way.”

“From the looks of it, I don’t think he did anything other than applying a hemostatic agent.”

“Did you know that reducing blood flow by compressing blood vessels stops bleeding?”

“yes.”

“When the director injected a local anesthetic a while ago, he used an injection needle like acupuncture to make the muscles naturally compress the blood vessels.”

“yes! Is it possible to do that with a needle?”

“It is possible if you have the knowledge of oriental medicine at the level of the director.”

“Did you major in oriental medicine?”

“You didn’t major, but you are better than those who majored.”

“Is that so? But aren’t those foreign doctors all on the positive side?”

“Research on acupuncture or moxibustion treatment has been very active among Western doctors since ancient times. In fact, there were a lot of European doctors who came to Peking Medical University every year to study traditional Chinese medicine.”

“ah! That’s why they are so surprised to see the director’s treatment.”

“yes.”

Eul Yeon-kyung knew that Han Jin-soo was even using a little energy, but he didn’t say that.

Not all the doctors who were watching Han Jin-soo’s technique noticed that acupuncture was effective with injection needles like Eul Yeon-kyung. However, those who did not know, nodded in admiration after hearing the explanation from the others who noticed.

Nurse Song thought it very embarrassing that Han Jin-soo was only giving such simple treatment in front of world-class doctors, but after hearing Eul Yeon-gyeong’s words, she thought that Han Jin-soo was truly amazing.

‘You can impress those amazing doctors with this kind of treatment! This is our director’s class!’

After receiving the phone call from Dr. Seonwoo Hong, Director Choi Ik-soo of Daehan University Hospital couldn’t get up easily and struggled for a while.

Dr. Hong Seon-woo is a medical journalist, so if he knew, it would only be a matter of time before Han Jin-soo would become an article.

“I thought I had just finished cleaning up all the dung packed by the former director and his younger brother… I didn’t expect such a gritty lump to remain!”

I just wanted to dismiss it as something I didn’t know and not care about it. However, if that happens, the image of the hospital, which is barely recovering, will deteriorate again.

“Whoa~. It doesn’t end with avoiding it… I guess I have no choice but to say sorry.”

If the article tomorrow morning reports that Dr. Han Jin-soo, who was kicked out of Daehan University Hospital, performed surgery on the Chinese president, it will surely be bombarded with hateful comments.

To move, you had to move fast.

I pressed the intercom.

Beep.

“This secretary. Call Professor Jeon In-seok to my room.”

-all right.

I called the chief of surgery over the intercom, and after about 5 minutes, I heard the secretary’s voice.

“The director, Professor Jeon In-seok, is here.”

“Yes, let me in.”

When the door opened, Professor Jeon In-seok entered and slightly bowed his head.

“Did you find it? Director.”

“Come on. Would you like tea or coffee?”

“I will drink tea. Green tea, please.”

“This secretary. Some tea, please.”

“yes.”

After a while, when the car came out, Director Choi told Dr. Seon-Woo Hong what he had heard.

“…so I think we should embrace Director Han Jin-soo in moderation.”

“Embracing director Han would improve the hospital’s image, but… Since we already have a deep relationship with Agu University Hospital, would he want to come?”

“When I saw him at the Blue House this time, he didn’t show much hostility toward me. I can’t help it if I refuse, but shouldn’t I at least try?”

“The emotional trough must be quite deep, hehe~. It’s a former director, so it’s been a long time since he stepped down from the front line, so even if you don’t know the skills of a person like director Han Jin-soo, no matter how much you think about it, you can’t understand how the person in charge, Kim Joong-bae, who is called the professor in charge, can beat someone with such excellent skills.”

Now, professors at Daehan University Hospital have watched videos of Han Jin-soo undergoing surgery at Agu University Hospital or Qingdao University Hospital. Because of this, I knew how phenomenal his surgical skills were.

In fact, the reason why the former director had to step down so easily was because the hospital professors joined the former director’s resignation movement after seeing Dr.

“What can I do if I regret the past? Since Dr. Hong said he was covering today, the article will be published in the newspaper tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. So, before that, I’ll have to appease the director. Director Han should search for patients who need surgery first.”

“Hospitals are full of critically ill patients.”

“Even in an emergency, shouldn’t it be plausible to ask someone the size of a director?”

After hearing what Director Choi said, Professor Jeon thought hard for a while before opening his mouth.

“When the director says that, I also think of a patient I don’t like.”

“A reluctant patient?”

Director Choi thought for a moment and then shouted.

“ah! Are you referring to the patient suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?”

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a symptom in which the heart muscle of the left ventricle becomes thicker than necessary and compresses the aorta, causing aortic stenosis.

When aortic stenosis occurs, blood flow is obstructed, resulting in dizziness, shortness of breath, and chronic fatigue.

“If your patient Sang-hee Eom has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, I think an excuse to call Dr. Han Jin-soo would be sufficient.”

“hmm! Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the cutting off of the heart’s muscles… Isn’t there a lot of sudden death during surgery? It’s a pretty careful operation…. If it’s too picky, won’t the director refuse? Other than such a serious disease, are there any patients who can be operated on with little to no burden?”

“Director. Dr. Han Jin-soo is the doctor who operated on the Chinese president’s brain tumor. I haven’t been able to get a video of the surgery yet, but I hear that the tumor is located under the corpus callosum, so it is a very difficult operation, so even world-renowned surgeons refused. As a director who performed such a surgery, would you really refuse to operate on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?”

“Hmm~. Listening to what the former professor said, I must have worried a little too much.”

“What I am cautious about with director Han is the same for me and other professors. But if you’ve made up your mind to embrace it, I think you should treat it appropriately for your skills.”

“That’s right, I was being too careful.”

“First, call Dr. Han and ask if he can do a business trip.”

“Okay.”

Director Choi Ik-soo opened his cell phone and called Han Jin-soo.

The phone rang and a few seconds later I answered the phone.

“hello. Are you Jinsoo Han?”

-Yes, who are you?

“I am Choi Ik-soo, the president of Daehan University Hospital. Didn’t we greet each other at the Blue House last time?”

-Ah, you are Director Choi. On that day, since it was the Blue House, there was no time to congratulate him on becoming the hospital director.

“I was like that too. Are you busy these days anyway?”

-no. Not too busy.

“I’m glad you’re not busy. Actually, Professor Jeon In-seok invited you to have a patient who wants you to perform surgery with him. That’s why I contacted you.”

―Professor Jeon In-seok of Thoracic Surgery?

Han Jin-soo’s voice on the phone radiated joy.

Although life in the hospital was difficult because of Professor Kim Joong-bae, people like Director Choi and Professor Jeon were people who focused on patient care rather than hospital politics.

“Yes.”

-What kind of patient are you?

“I am a patient suffering from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and as Dr. Han knows, cutting and suturing the heart muscle is an extremely difficult procedure. That’s why I want Professor Jeon and Director Han to collaborate.”

―It’s hypertrophic cardiomyopathy… It’s a careful and difficult operation, but if you’re Professor Jeon In-seok, you’ll be able to do it well enough.

“I can do well, but wouldn’t it be better to work with someone who is better for the sake of the patient? Are you reluctant?”

-no. It would be an honor to be able to collaborate with someone like Professor Jeon In-seok.

“So, when is the time?”

―You can make it whenever you have time.

“Then what about tomorrow?”

Director Choi continued to exchange sign language with Professor Jeon In-seok while talking on the phone with Han Jin-soo. Of course, it was not the kind of sign language that deaf people recognize, but half-sham sign language.

-My tomorrow? Are you such an urgent patient?

“Actually, the date of the surgery was set a long time ago. However, when I talked about meeting director Han at the Blue House, Professor Jeon In-seok said that he remembered the time when director Han worked as an intern at the thoracic surgery department.”

―Did you change it to me when it was supposed to be done by another professor?

“It is not so. The former professor was going to administer it and the specialists were going to assist.”

-is it so. If so, I’ll make time tomorrow.

“It would be better after Director Han’s hospital is over, right?”

―Then I don’t have any more burden.

“Then I’ll make an appointment for the surgery tomorrow at 8pm.”

-All right. As soon as the hospital work is over, I will move on to Daehan University Hospital.

“Okay then see you tomorrow. Oh, and Professor Jeon In-seok said he would call Director Han later.”

-Ah yes. All right.

“See you tomorrow.”

-yes.

Director Choi put on a satisfied expression after the phone call ended.

“As expected, director Han Jin-soo didn’t look at us badly either.”

“Iknow, right. I think the image of the hospital will be greatly renewed if it is appropriately disclosed to the media after surgery with a director.”

“Heh heh.”

* * *

“What? Didn’t you say you were going to die today?”

Returning to the hospital after having a big lunch with the new nurses, Han Jin-soo looked puzzled when several doctors, including Daniel Hammer, were sitting in the lobby.

Han Jin-soo served dinner to doctors from abroad yesterday and made friends over a simple drink.

Because of this, I heard that some of them will return to their countries today and the rest will tour Seoul.

“I am tomorrow and the deal is the day after tomorrow. And Mel… When did Mel say he was going back?”

“You said you had a flight tomorrow morning!”

“Oh was it? Anyway, those who are going today are gone, and these four people have a little time left to go.”

“Didn’t the remaining people say they would tour Seoul?”

“We did sightseeing in the morning.”

“There are so many things to see in Seoul, but did you come to the hospital?”

“There are so many things to see… No matter how beautiful or historical they are… I can’t see them.”

“Eh, it’s an occupational disease that only patients can see. I’m going to Daehan University Hospital at 8:00 this evening to have my hypertrophic cardiomyopathy surgery done.

“Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy!”

For a moment, not only Daniel Hammer, but also the other three doctors’ eyes twinkled.
