4. The Attending Physician

A 28-years-old woman is admitted to Saint Howell´s ER with severe abdominal pain. She had been seen by her colleague 24 hours before. A blood sample had been taken and a CT showed no abdominal, pelvic or thorax lesions. Her blood results are now in the doctor´s hands. After reviewing them she says there´s only an unspecific elevation of white blood cells which allows for no diagnosis. Feeling she will turn out an undiagnosable annoying patient she sends the young patient and her mother to see Dr. Tom Bardino. Later she learns some strange pathology had been diagnosed by him. She improved with medication and was sent home feeling well.
