It's not foreshadowed, but it's also not not foreshadowed. There isn't really anything in the previous episode that precludes the two of them being related. It's just a sort of dumb twist.

It's never about her skill, it's the opposite about her being potentially sloppy. It can be likely that Tamura would for example, refuse to perform a surgeon if it's something she doesn't feel confident for, so she can maintain her acclaim, rather like Kitaoka's lawyer verdict in Ryuki before, but she's forced to face her fear of mistake/failure, as it's her dad that needs it in this case.

This is all definitely possible. The problem is, none of it is shown at any point pre-Yummy. The first thing we're shown is her getting ready to operate and being told No. The next thing we're shown is her fighting for the chance to operate on her own patients, and being told No. I'd be way more into this story if we'd spent any time pre-Yummy showing Tamura to be reckless, egotistical, selfish, etc. It's just a bunch of dudes telling her she thinks too highly of hereself, though?
