Chapter 252

"Dr. Laurent, how could a medical genius like you be content working as a regular physician at our hospital?"

"Exactly. If it were me, I'd be traveling the world by now."

"Dr. Laurent, we were blind before. Not only is your medical skill extraordinary, but you've achieved so much professionally."

Vivian stood in the hospital corridor, her lab coat fluttering slightly in the breeze. The once skeptical gazes had transformed into looks of admiration.

She adjusted her cuffs with a slight bow of her head. "Medicine is my calling. With passion and perseverance, everyone can shine in their chosen field."

Before the other doctors could continue, Vivian briskly fastened her coat. "Clinic hours are starting."

Today, Ryan Fairsprene volunteered as her assistant. Though still an intern, Vivian recognized his skills surpassed that level.

Her appointment slots filled instantly when registration opened.

"Please come in." Vivian gestured for the first patient to sit.

"Doctor, my back muscles hurt terribly. Pain patches don't help."

After one glance, Vivian immediately picked up the phone. "You need emergency cardiac evaluation. I'll arrange priority admission with the department head."

"But it's just muscle pain?" The patient looked confused.

"Myocardial ischemia can radiate to the back. You're at risk of a heart attack right now." She turned to Ryan. "Escort this gentleman for testing."

Thirty minutes later, Ryan rushed back. "Severe coronary artery blockage! Cardiology said another hour could've been fatal."

Vivian continued writing notes without looking up. "Clinical experience matters. Symptoms often deceive."

"Noted." Ryan nodded solemnly.

The clinic became a medical masterclass. Complex cases Vivian handled with ease, some conditions even textbooks hadn't documented yet she provided precise solutions.

Cheers periodically rose from the waiting area. Cured patients returned with gratitude gifts, family members bowed in tearful thanks.

Watching these reborn smiles, Ryan tightened his grip on the medical charts. He would become a healer like Dr. Laurent - someone who upheld life's fragile hopes.
