Afterwards, the two couldn't help but look at each other in slight surprise, pursed their lips and chuckled.
They are twins. Scenes like this have not happened often since they were young, especially when they were young.
However, as we grew older, the opportunities for disagreements gradually increased. Unexpectedly, after many years, the same sentence was said in perfect agreement!
In the car, Mrs. Clark glanced at her arrogant husband who was driving, and said quietly: "George, you were so rude just now."
Mr. Clark snorted coldly and shouted: "Excuse me? We came to take care of his business for Mrs. Westin's sake! As a result, what did this young Dr. Zhou do?... He is dishonest and... He did this little trick just to defraud us of more money! He gave me a very bad impression!"
"Inexplicably, he said that you have cancer, the king of cancers, and then said that it can be cured!"
"If I was rude, wouldn't he be even more rude? No, he is simply a big liar!"
"The senior attending doctor at Red-billed Gull Clinic has never said that!"
"Humph, he wants to kill us as if we were taken advantage of. There is no such good thing in the world! He is too young and too naive!"
The more George Clark talked, the more angry he became. He was just here for a physical examination, but instead he was filled with tricks and malice!
He felt that changing clinics was the biggest mistake he made this year!
Although the Red-billed Gull Clinic is a little more expensive and has a worse attitude, at least it didn’t fool them!
However, Mrs. Clark was silent for a long time.
George Clark couldn't help but turn his head and glance, but when he saw his wife's face full of worry, he couldn't help but feel soft: "I'm sorry, Deborah, you know, I just have such a bad temper. I didn't do it in front of the Chinese doctor." Scolding him is because I have lost my temper in recent years!"
"Chinese doctors are really obsessed with money!"
"Deborah, if you are really worried, I will take you to the University of California Medical Center for a more detailed examination. There are many well-known experts and professors there. You know, it is the fifth largest hospital in the world! "Mr. Clark said.
"...Okay." Mrs. Clark agreed worriedly. She pinched the information given by Zhou Qiao in her hand and felt that there was a high probability that this matter was true. She might as well go to the University of California Medical Center to have a look.
Along the way, Mr. Clark couldn't get rid of his anger, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became: "If the diagnosis result of the University of California Medical Center is not, huh, I must go and file a complaint against that Iris Clinic! It's so abominable!"
Mrs. Clark: "..."
However, it was getting late today, and when they arrived at the University of California Medical Center, it was already closed.
For such a serious illness, emergency room treatment was not allowed. The main reason was that Mrs. Clark seemed to be fine and not at the critical moment of her life.
The Clarks had no choice but to return home, and they stayed up almost half the night. The next morning, I had an early appointment with a well-known specialist in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery named David Crawford.
"Let me tell you, this Dr. Crawford is quite famous. It is said that he has been practicing medicine for more than 30 years and has very rich clinical experience. He is an internationally renowned oncologist. He is good at treating various malignant tumors, including lung cancer, Stomach cancer, pancreatic cancer, leukemia, prostate cancer, etc.”
“I saw on their hospital’s website last night that Dr. Crawford’s research fields mainly focus on disease research, basic research and research translation. He has published hundreds of academic papers in major top journals and served as several A principal investigator on ten NIH-funded research projects for more than 30 years, he served as principal investigator on the NIH T32 Basic Research in Hematology-Oncology for 37 years. He also served as a mentor and teacher at the UCSF School of Medicine and Medical Center, where he directed Several of the faculty are now professors and leading their own research projects at UCSF and other institutions."
UCSF is the abbreviation of University of California, San Francisco.
Along the way, Mr. Clark talked nonchalantly, introducing the information of the expert who had made the appointment. Full of confidence, he took his wife for another check-up. He hoped that Dr. Crawford could carefully screen and come up with a different conclusion!
"Huh, if it's really not pancreatic cancer, I will definitely file a complaint against Zhou Qiao!" Mr. Clark was worried. How much wasted money it would cost to go to the University of California Medical Center, and how depressed and worried the two of them had been in the past two days. It was all Zhou Qiao's fault.
After arriving, I first registered with the nurse at the front desk. The nurse asked for some information, such as my condition, medication status, and medical insurance information. Then, the nurse did some routine tests on Mrs. Clark, including weight, height, blood pressure, pulse, etc.
Then there’s the waiting list. Finally, it was their turn.
Dr. Claudeford conducted a detailed consultation and after understanding the situation, he arranged examinations for them. To the Clarks' surprise, the examination items arranged by Zhou Qiao were the same!
Although they had done examinations at Zhou Qiao before, if they took out the reports, they would not have to do it again. The University of California Medical Center also recognized those three reports, but Mr. Clark felt that Zhou Qiao's side might not be reliable.
For such an important matter, it is necessary to spend more money and review it again.
So, they checked again.
The results of the report were naturally similar. After getting the report, Dr. Crawford read it carefully and fell into deep thought.
"Dr. Crawford, how is my wife's condition?" Mr. Clark couldn't help but asked.
Dr. Crawford pondered slightly, closed the report, and said, "Let's do this. I will organize a multidisciplinary consultation, and then we will come up with a complete diagnosis and treatment plan."
After a pause, Dr. Claudeford said with a heavy face: "I'm sorry, it's really pancreatic cancer. I hope you are mentally prepared. The treatment in the future will face very difficult and unknown challenges!"
Mr. Clark: "..."
Mrs. Clark: "..."
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that the diagnosis was the same as Zhou Qiao's? Oh my God! The Chinese doctor didn't lie to them!
This is the official diagnosis!
Mrs. Clark felt her vision go dark and almost fainted. Mr. Clark quickly helped her and helped her outside.
It is difficult for the two of them to accept and face it, but the facts are before their eyes, and they really have to believe it this time!
Dr. Crawford hurried away to organize a multidisciplinary consultation.
Soon, a multidisciplinary consultation that brought together departments such as hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, medical oncology, radiology, pathology, and radiotherapy began!
The attendees were all core members of the University of California Medical Center, including several department directors.
