"Doctor Zuo, I'm really sorry." Liu Cishan from the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery was the one who felt the most embarrassed after making such a big mistake.
The smile on Zuo Cidian's face faded away, and he said, "Since things have come to this, there's nothing else to say. Now, we have to be more careful. Don't let the patient's family or the patient complain about us."
"Yes, I've already asked the doctor in charge of the bed to communicate with him." The Orthopedics Department of the First People's Hospital of Wuxin City was also an associate chief physician.
Zuo Cidian nodded and said, "There's nothing else. This kind of thing wouldn't happen under normal circumstances. I'll just mention it to Doctor Ling."
"Yes, we will pay more attention in the future." Liu Cishan felt a little dejected.
The scale of Sea City General Hospital was not very big. It was at the level of a basic Class Three Grade A hospital. Liu Cishan had worked in this hospital for 20 years. He should be very familiar with the people and the situation. He did not expect to be embarrassed by the patient's family.
However, for doctors, the unpredictable changes of a disease could never be compared to the unpredictable changes of a patient's family.
Liu Cishan didn't dare to make any promises. He laughed it off and let the matter pass. He was finally relieved.
However, after Zuo Cidian left, the associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department immediately called the doctor in charge of the patient over and asked him about it in detail as well as gave him instructions.
The doctor in charge of the patient was slightly uneasy.
When the associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department saw this, he said, "The patient's family can't just ask for a freelance surgery just because they want to. They have to go through us first. What did the family say? "
"The patient's family suggested that if it's not convenient for us to perform the surgery here, they would consider looking for a private hospital to perform the surgery."
The deputy director could not help but look at Liu Cishan.
"This family is a little stubborn. Actually, it's good to send them away. However, it's still up to you. "Liu Cishan couldn't guide the work of the Orthopedics Department, so he could only give a suggestion.
"Achilles tendon repair is actually a minor surgery. The key is that the patient is a sports coach, and he has a certain level of athletic ability. That's why we proposed to introduce Doctor Ling to him as a freelance surgeon. We didn't expect that there would be such a sister among the patient's family …" The associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department explained and said, "If it doesn't work, just let them be discharged."
Liu Cishan nodded. "It's hard to understand the thoughts of patients and their family members."
"Yes, I'm also afraid that they will throw a tantrum again."
"Anyway, Doctor Ling has not said anything, so we don't have to worry about it." Liu Cishan was also a little uncertain about the situation now. Although it was said that every once in a while, there would be patients' family members who would do incredibly stupid things, sometimes, doctors would also make baffling decisions due to certain reasons.
…
At the airport.
"Sir, your coat." The stewardess handed over a new Gucci coat with a smile.
"Thank you." Doctor Qu took the coat with a smile on his face. He then raised his hand and took his suitcase. He felt relaxed.
The coat was bought with the income from the previous few freelance surgeries, and the price was about the same as his salary for the month.
However, Doctor Qu did not care about this kind of thing now. Once he started freelance surgery, a doctor's view of money would completely change.
Doctor Qu slowly walked out of the passage. He dragged the box behind him, and he did not feel any burden at all.
In the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center, there were various department directors above him, as well as the hospital director of the hospital branch. Below him, there were many talented young doctors with high academic qualifications and hair. He could never relax.
The pinnacle of Doctor Qu's life was when he was Liu Weichen's attending physician.
At that time, Doctor Qu still had the thought of operating on Liu Weichen himself, even though the possibility was not high. But it was still a kind of hope.
And after Liu Weichen's surgery was over, Doctor Qu felt that it was more and more boring to operate on him.
He believed that he would never be able to reach Ling Ran's level in terms of skills, and it was not easy to increase his rank …
"Doctor Qu, over here." A local representative from a pharmaceutical company and a patient's family member, who had made an appointment in advance, waved at Doctor Qu at the arrival gate.
Doctor Qu walked over with a smile, and his footsteps were light.
Compared to struggling in the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center with all his might, it was better to go out and explore the world while he was still young.
Of course, it was not easy to go out and explore the world, especially when he wanted to keep a close eye on the names of big hospitals.
Doctor Qu could only find time to carry out one or two freelance surgeries after all his work was done.
Most of his surgeries were arranged through private clinics in Shanghai. The latter wanted to take a cut, and the places they arranged for him were usually places that the more famous doctors were not willing to go to. But Doctor Qu did not care so much.
As long as he could come out and perform freelance surgeries, he was very satisfied. As for the extra three to four hours of travel, he did not care.
After all, he was not like chief physicians who could offer a high price or perform multiple surgeries at once.
He could only find suitable opportunities for freelance surgeries in places that were far away from Shanghai and not the provincial capital.
"Doctor Qu, thank you for your hard work." The local pharmaceutical sales representative had never seen Doctor Qu in person. He was only asked by his colleague to come and pick him up at the airport.
However, pharmaceutical sales representatives were smooth and slick, and they knew how to get close to people.
He took Doctor Qu's suitcase and said, "Our car is parked, and we'll ask him to come over with a call. We still have about two hours to travel by high-speed rail. Doctor Qu, do you want to go there directly, or do you want to eat something first?"
"Let's go there directly." Doctor Qu predicted the itinerary, but he still felt a little sentimental. If he performed freelance surgeries in Yun Hua, it would be a lot easier. After all, it would only take a long time to fly over from Shanghai.
However, Doctor Qu only thought about it. Yun Hua was Ling Ran's home base. If he went there, Doctor Qu did not think that he would end up well.
Doctor Qu had really carefully studied Ling Ran's Achilles tendon repair technique.
After all, his own research direction was in this area.
Honestly speaking, Doctor Qu did not think that he could complete the so-called Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique in his lifetime. Even if he could complete 80% of it, he still felt that it was impossible.
This understanding was also one of the reasons why Doctor Qu gave up on accumulating his qualifications and turned to pursue money.
The medical world had always been a world that belonged to geniuses. Doctor Qu actually knew this a long time ago. However, only when you were close enough to geniuses, especially those who were peerless geniuses, would you make decisions that would determine your life's fate.
There were many times when Doctor Qu even felt that Ling Ran's trip to the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center was like a freelance surgeon.
Of course, Ling Ran's surgery in the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center would not be charged like a freelance surgeon. But other than that, Doctor Qu did not think that there was any difference between Ling Ran's treatment and that of a freelance surgeon.
"Wuxin City is still quite far from Yun Hua City." Doctor Qu sat on the high-speed rail and commented. Then, he looked at Yun Hua City in the distance, and his mood became more and more peaceful.
