Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper Wall

A doctor believes a specific patient needs more tests before being sent home from the hospital (to be fair, not for the first time—and the previous times he was wrong), but is overruled and he must send her home. However, some samples he had already taken are subsequently tested, and prove she's in need of urgent, life-saving surgery. (He is subsequently proved to be correct in this case.)
