Chapter 1478
The doctors observing from the second floor exchanged shocked glances after hearing that.
“I can’t believe it! That’s a really low value! Do you realize what that means? Not only will the patient live a normal life after recovery, but she would also be capable of strenuous activities like running and other heavy exercise. This is nothing short of a miracle.”
“As expected of the legendary surgeon! Truly amazing stuff.”
“I must say, I have never been so impressed in all my years in this profession!”
“The fact that we were able to witness such a complex surgery firsthand—what a privilege!”
“The result is better than what any of us could have hoped for. It feels quite surreal!”
The doctors volleyed back and forth with their praises for Star, while Turner stood to the side, his expression turning more sour with every word he heard. Sure, this outcome was ideal for both the hospital and the patient’s family, but it was still a huge blow to his ability.
The surgery itself was proof that he had sorely misjudged the patient’s condition and had effectively sent her to a critical state.
A rupture was extremely dangerous, and even with immediate response, the patient could easily die on the operating table.
If Star hadn’t stepped in to perform the surgery, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
It took another hour for Barbara’s surgery to finally be completed.
Belinda left the suturing to Addie and exited the operating room.
She changed her clothes and put on her customized glasses and mask. Then, she went out with Fred.
As per standard procedure, she needed to discuss the patient’s condition with their family, so she had no choice but to speak with Nalani.
When the Wright family members saw Belinda and Fred, they all rushed over.
“Dr. Star, how is my daughter?” Nalani asked, her face still lined with worry. She reached out and grabbed Belinda’s hand.
“Please calm down,” Fred said.
Realizing that she might have been rude by grabbing the doctor’s hand, Nalani withdrew her hand and said, “I apologize, Dr. Star…”
“Never mind about that,” Belinda said, shaking her head. “The surgery was successful, and your daughter will be moved to the ICU shortly. She’s stable for now, but the next…”
A few days are critical. At this point, whether she manages to pull through or not depends on her own resilience.” Nalani’s eyes welled up with fresh tears.
“Thank you, Dr. Star. Truly, thank you very much!” she said, her voice choked with emotion.
Belinda said, “Barbara requires constant monitoring. I suggest you put Dr. Wright to the task. Caiden told me that it was she who pointed out the urgency of the patient’s situation and even advised immediate surgery. Clearly, she was right. I think it’s only proper for her to oversee Barbara’s recovery from now on.”
This was the main reason Belinda wanted to meet with Nalani.
