I chuckled, “We’re only here to take a look at the hospital and the medical equipment. We’re not here to tear down this place. Why did you bring so many people?”
He chuckled and replied, “Let’s go. The doctors and equipment are up there. You should take a look at them so you’d feel more assured. Rich people like you tend to be more cautious.”
I followed behind him and let out a soft chuckle. “I have no choice, she’s my precious daughter, and I want to give her the best.”
His laughter echoed in the lift. Upon arriving at the second floor, I followed him past a metal gate that led to a fifty square meters big office. There were five doctors donned in their white gowns.
After an exchange of greetings, Brandon announced, “Alright. Since everyone knows each other, let’s jump straight to the equipment. Please explain to Ms. Stovall their functions and attend to her queries as soon as possible.”
They all nodded.
I was not in a rush to look at the equipment, so I asked, “Mr. Dumphy, I’m not an expert in this field, so there’s no point in me trying to know more about the equipment. However, I have a request. I hope you wouldn’t mind.”
He smiled at me and replied, “Of course I wouldn’t mind. I have no reason to reject your request as long as it’s logical and legal.”
Logical and legal?
I let out an awkward chuckle. Would my request be logical and legal?
I looked at him and continued, “I’d like to look through the doctors’ credentials. To be qualified as either a clinical or surgical doctor, one needs to attain certain qualifications. I hope you all don’t mind letting me take a look at them.”
