Surgeon is hailed as a hero for completing seven operations without a break before falling asleep on the floor
A surgeon has shot to fame in China after completing seven operations without a break to ensure that his patients could get treatment in time.
A picture of him falling asleep following the procedures has become trending, drawing praises from web users who hailed him as a hero.
But the physician, named Dai Yu, stays humble. He told reporters it was his duty to provide the best care to his patients.
Dr Dai is the deputy director at the Orthopaedic Department of Longgang Central Hospital in Shenzhen, southern China.
The picture was taken by one of his colleagues on Monday.
Dr Dai told local TV station Longgang Channel that he and his colleagues had been tasked to perform 10 surgical operations on the day.
