Linda leaned forward. "She’s missing something, she hasn’t asked about previous cardiac interventions."
"Give her time," George countered, watching intently. "She’s pacing her flow."
Carl, expression unreadable, quietly tapped a pen against the desk. "She’s already seen it," he murmured.
"What?" asked one of the examiners beside him.
"The pattern. She’s connecting the pulmonary findings to left ventricular failure."
@MedNation: Is she gonna say it?
@StudentDocZ: She’s definitely thinking congestive heart failure secondary to long standing hypertension.
@FutureDrK: If she nails this viva, she’s not just passing, she’s making history.

After completing her physical exam, Nnenna stepped back and wrote a few quick notes before turning to the patient again.
"Mrs. Tasha," she said softly, "I believe your symptoms may be related to your heart. Possibly a condition called heart failure caused by your high blood pressure and maybe a rhythm problem. But don’t worry, we’ll confirm with further tests to be sure. You’re in good hands."
The woman looked at her in quiet disbelief before nodding slowly. "You sound like you actually care," she said. "Most people just write and leave."
Nnenna smiled. "Because you’re not just a case, ma’am, you’re a person. And people deserve care."

Then one of the senior examiners let out a breath. "Brilliant."
George grinned from ear to ear. "Nicely done."
Linda’s jaw tightened. "Let’s see if she can handle the viva questions. Diagnosis is just the beginning."
Carl’s lips curved ever so slightly.
Online, the viewers exploded.
@MedNation: She’s unreal.
@OmnioraObserver: This girl’s making the toughest case look easy.
@DocReview: Professional. Empathic. Accurate. Textbook 5th MBBS level.
Nnenna finished her examination calmly and stepped aside to record her findings. Her tablet glowed faintly as she wrote with steady hands:
