Chapter 459: Chapter 459
At times like these, time is life itself!
If Su Fan arrived just one minute earlier, Tang Wan's aunt would have one more minute of hope for survival.
Under Tang Sanchun's guidance, the two quickly reached the door of Tang Wan's aunt's ward.
Seeing Tang Sanchun and Su Fan coming, President Lu Heng couldn't help but ask, "What are you two doing here?"
Lu Heng was no ordinary individual but a specialist in Western medicine.
He has over twenty years of experience at a top medical center abroad.
His medical skill was considered higher, not lower, than Tang Sanchun's.
However, Tang Sanchun was a Divine Doctor in Traditional Chinese Medicine, not quite reaching the pinnacle of perfection in Western medicine.
As a pure Western medicine expert, Lu Heng didn't hold much esteem for Traditional Chinese Medicine.
In his opinion, the treatment methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine were really unscientific.
Most of the time, the success of Traditional Chinese Medicine in curing a patient was partly due to proven prescriptions obtained through trial and error over ages.
And partly, it was simply luck.
For example, someone may have certain symptoms, takes some herbal medicine, gets better, and then the prescription is recorded.
In the future, when others exhibit similar symptoms, they also use this prescription.
If the second person doesn't improve, then they try another prescription.
With such continuous trials leading to certain remedies, of course, a degree of universal applicability is inherent.
But with the advent of the new era, patients' conditions compared to the past, have undergone revolutionary changes.
Such methods of treatment are clearly no longer suitable.
Like in this case, Lu Heng felt that if Tang Wan's aunt had continuously been treated with Western medicine, it might not truly be a lost cause.
However, Tang Wan's initial action was not to send her to the second city hospital but to have Tang Sanchun take a look.
Lu Heng's impression of Tang Sanchun was not very positive, although he did acknowledge that Tang Sanchun had something unique compared to a common Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner.
Lu Heng had this kind of attitude towards Traditional Chinese Medicine, so naturally, he did not show a pleasant face upon seeing Su Fan and Tang Sanchun.
At this moment, Tang Sanchun certainly would not stoop to argue with Lu Heng.
He had brought Su Fan here to save a life, not to do anything else.
He immediately said, "I've brought Divine Doctor Su here to save someone."
On hearing of another "Divine Doctor," Lu Heng immediately felt a surge of aversion.
Although in private, some also hailed Lu Heng as Divine Doctor.
But he preferred to be called Dr. Lu, or even President Lu, Specialist Lu would do.
Divine Doctor Lu sounded utterly preposterous to him.
So after learning Su Fan was also a "Divine Doctor," Lu Heng's response was far from courteous, "No matter what kind of Divine Doctor you are, you are not permitted to make contact with the patient now!"
"The patient's condition is very critical at the moment!"
Although Lu Heng was very angry, he did not speak the complete truth.
According to his professional judgment, Tang Wan's aunt's situation was not just critical; she had already been reduced to a dead person.
The reason Tang Wan's aunt still showed signs of life
was not because of her exceptionally strong vitality, or because their medical skill was highly advanced.
It was because the life support equipment was highly sophisticated.
As long as the life support equipment didn't completely shut down, even if some organs had stopped functioning, a person would not lose all signs of life!
Nevertheless, Tang Wan's aunt was still beyond saving.
As Su Fan was anxious to save someone, he certainly wouldn't care whether the other party was President Lu or President Ma and immediately stepped forward.
Lu Heng instantly became furious, "What are you doing?"
With calmness, Su Fan replied, "I am here to save someone."
Lu Heng scoffed, "Impossible! Today, apart from top medical experts within the country, nobody is allowed through this door!"
