Sam doesn't give the guy a look for suggesting that some medical student would be great for this when they've got an experienced pararescueman right here, but that's mostly because he's too busy focusing on Venus to indulge in any kind of professional pride.
He knows his worry is entirely personal. It could have been much worse - Sam's seen much worse, and he's got plenty of supplies from his med kit to work with. She'd do better with a transfusion or some kind of fluids, but aside from that she's cleaned up, skin pieced back together and stitched up, bandaged and wrapped nice and warm, and that's the best that can be done.
But he's still worried. It's Venus, he's always going to worry. Especially when she tells him she trusts him like that. He touches her cheek, thumb stroking a little.
"We're going to take you to Albert and Jet, okay?"
He glances back over at Phil now that he's done, shaking his head. "I'm fine, already patched myself up. Can you keep on guard while we take her back? It's not too far, but I'd still rather one of us have our hands free in case we run into someone."
