I think this is where your problem comes from: "I was under the
impression that..."

Nothing in the sentence of TKD implies that there is any emergency or
distress. True, of course, finding a surgeon is an emergency, but not
from a grammatical point of view. So if it's okay to say {HaqwI''e' DaH
yISam} you can certainly also say {Soj'e' nom vISop}, or as you found
out, {maS'e' loQ So' QIb}.

TKD does not explicitly says that this is only used in distress.
