The next day.
The Orthopedics Department rejected the Achilles tendon repair patients referred by the Emergency Department.
According to the normal procedure, all patients with Achilles tendon ruptures accepted by the Emergency Department should be sent to the Orthopedics Department. If the Orthopedics Department did not want them, they would be referred to other hospitals.
However, to avoid being compared to Ling Ran, Chief Physician Han Chengjiao's attitude was firm. He knew Huo Congjun too well. It was not a big deal to write a research paper to scold people. Even if Huo Congjun organized people to do research and write a series of research papers to scold people, it would not be strange.
In fact, the doctors in Yun Hua City and Changxi Province knew that the research paper of Huo Congjun, the director of the Emergency Department of Yun Hua Hospital, was a collection of scolding people. If a research paper could not be used to scold people, Huo Congjun would not bother to write it.
Therefore, if they accepted the patient and Huo Congjun read an article on the difference between the Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique and the ordinary Achilles Repair Technique at a summit two months later, and the content was based on Han Chengjiao's surgery, Han Chengjiao would not be surprised at all.
He would only be so angry that he would die with Huo Congjun!
"The people from the Orthopedics Department said that from today onwards, they will not perform Achilles tendon repairs." Lu Wenbin returned with a smug expression. Although he was scared to death when he went to the Orthopedics Department to report, he was now like a general who returned victorious.
"Not even one case?"
"I won't do any more." Lu Wenbin chuckled.
"Well, if they don't want to do it, we will. It's not like we want to snatch their surgery. I can't just push the patient to another hospital after the ambulance arrives, right? It's not like that." Huo Congjun snorted. "He's lucky. I'm busy with the Emergency Medical Center recently, and I don't have the energy to argue with him. "
Several doctors in the office turned their heads and held back their laughter. If outsiders said that Department Director Huo did not have the energy to argue with others, no one would believe it.
"Yu Yuan," Huo Congjun shouted again.
"Here." Yu Yuan was so shocked that she stood up and jumped again to mark her position.
Huo Congjun nodded in satisfaction and said, "You've also performed dozens of Achilles tendon repair surgeries with Ling Ran, right? You heard what Lu Wenbin said just now. In the future, all the Achilles tendon repair surgeries in our hospital will be performed by our department. When Ling Ran is not around, you have to shoulder the responsibility, understand?"
"Ah? I … "Yu Yuan wanted to say that she had not completely learned it, but when the words reached her mouth, she nodded heavily and said," I will learn it well. "
"Yes, I've reported your name to the Medical Affairs Department. From tomorrow onwards, you'll be on duty according to the chief resident's duty schedule. Are you okay with that?" Huo Congjun asked sternly.
"No problem," Yu Yuan quickly answered, and she could not stop smiling.
The chief residents of Yun Hua Hospital usually stayed on for eight to ten months, but there were cases where the chief residents stayed on for a slightly longer period of time. But no matter how long it took, the rule that only chief residents could become attending physicians was the bottleneck of Yu Yuan's promotion. Now that she joined Ling Ran's group, she could be considered to have snatched a spot.
"For the next three days, there will be a surgery for a foreign patient every day. Everyone, keep your spirits up. Whether or not we can make a name for ourselves internationally depends on this round, "Huo Congjun said with a smile on his face.
The doctors responded with little interest.
Since they were not the ones performing the surgery and did not want them to be their assistants, it did not make a difference whether or not they were able to keep their spirits up. The ones who really needed to keep their spirits up were the nurses and care workers in charge of nursing.
Huo Congjun did not care.
The management of doctors was not that strict. Unlike other professions, there was no one to supervise whether the doctors were fully dedicated to their work during the medical process. The chief physicians could not guarantee what kind of attitude the doctors would adopt when they were not around. Even the chief physicians themselves did not know whether they were dedicated to their work.
It could only be said that the process of treating people still had a certain moral restraint, so that doctors who were not antisocial could at least maintain a certain level of professional ethics. However, when it came to dedication, it was too subjective a judgment.
Huo Congjun looked around and did not see the most dedicated Ling Ran. He could not help but ask, "Where did Doctor Ling go?"
"He went to the Shao family's restaurant," Zhao Leyi said with a chuckle.
"To the Shao family's restaurant …" Huo Congjun looked at his watch and said angrily, "It's still working hours, why did they go to eat crayfish?"
"They went to eat barbecue," a resident doctor who looked so ordinary that his name was hard to remember said in a low voice.
"Is this about crayfish or barbecue?" The hair on Huo Congjun's neck stood up. He turned to look for the person who spoke, but he did not notice that it was the resident doctor who spoke.
Yu Yuan said in a low voice, "It's because the Jamaican patient who paid his own expenses came with a doctor. Doctor Zhou said that he should treat them to a meal, so he dragged Doctor Ling along."
"I told you, Ling Ran won't … Hmm, when Young Zhou comes back, ask him to come and see me." Huo Congjun turned and left, shaking the hair on his neck.
Yu Yuan shrunk her neck. "Did I offend Doctor Zhou?"
"It's okay. Old Zhou is used to it. He has a way." Zheng Pei was a senior resident doctor who had been working for three years. He could be considered to be the same age as Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan thought about it and nodded in agreement. She thought, 'If Doctor Zhou didn't have special hiding skills, he would have died a long time ago. Since Doctor Zhou is still alive … it makes sense.'
…..
In the Shao family's restaurant.
The twenty-year-old Jamaican sprinter, Nesta, looked at the two Chinese doctors in front of him and his doctor, Winnie, in a daze.
Ling Ran, Doctor Zhou, and Doctor Winnie were munching on spicy beef kebabs. The spicy beef, along with the aroma of the Maillard reaction after it was barbecued, rushed straight into Nesta's nose.
But in front of Nesta was a bowl of nutritious meal that he had been eating for three years. It tasted simple.
"I'm going to have surgery tomorrow. I should be able to eat other food." Nesta was so hungry that he was almost drooling.
Winnie showed a friendly smile and said to Nesta, "Your manager said that you're not allowed to eat strange food."
"What's so strange about beef? I often eat beef in Kingston, the capital of Jamaica." Nesta's tongue seemed to be sliding in water as he said in English, "I'll be satisfied with just a few pieces of beef. I can even mix it with rice."
"Beef isn't strange, but the beef here has too many spices. Look, there's chili, cloves, pepper, and cinnamon …"
"I like cinnamon the most."
"Me too." Winnie nodded in agreement. She skillfully grabbed a stick of spicy beef. While she savored the aroma and texture of the beef, she allowed the various spices to stimulate her taste buds. After she swallowed, she raised her beer mug and clinked it against Ling Ran's. She drank one-third of it in one go, and she felt so good that she stuck out her tongue.
Doctor Zhou raised his mug and circled it in the air before he retracted it. He then looked at the charming mixed-race beauty, Winnie, and laughed bashfully. "I shouldn't have followed you out."
"Is my roasted beef not good, or is the beer not good?" Boss Shao personally carried a plate and placed it on the table of the four of them with a thud. "This is the roasted pork tendon you wanted."
"Oh, the Achilles tendon is here." The beautiful mixed-race doctor, Winnie, smiled at the young athlete beside her. "Nesta, look, this is a cow's Achilles tendon. Look at the fibrous tissue here. It's thicker than yours, but it can also snap. So, it's not strange that your Achilles tendon is snapped. "
"Doctor Winnie, what you said won't help me to ease my anxiety."
"I'm not trying to ease your anxiety. What I mean is, you can eat two pieces of Achilles tendon, and I'll pretend that I didn't see it … According to China's medical theory, eating Achilles tendons for injured Achilles tendons is useful. Right? "Winnie winked at Ling Ran.
Ling Ran habitually ignored her. The tanned Nesta silently grabbed a piece of roasted beef tendon and ate it. He only chewed a few mouthfuls before he was stunned.
A tear flowed down from the corner of his eye.
Doctor Zhou smiled when he saw it. "This child is too pitiful. How long has it been since he ate something good?"
Nesta rubbed his eyes. "It's so spicy …"
"Then don't eat it …"
"No, I can hold on." Nesta said as he ate. He whimpered and asked, "How did you do this? Isn't the Achilles tendon supposed to be very hard?"
"It's boiled before it's roasted." Doctor Zhou picked up a skewer of roasted beef tendon and said in a very knowledgeable manner, "The beef tendon is cooked until it's half done. When it's cut open, it's still red on the inside. But when it's taken out and roasted over a slow fire, it's roasted just right on the inside. It's Boss Shao's specialty."
Nesta did not really understand what Doctor Zhou said. He only knew how to nod and say that it was delicious. However, after he ate two skewers, he restrained himself and stopped eating.
"Are you done?" Winnie asked even though she already knew the answer.
"Yes, I'll be full after I eat some nutritious meals." As Nesta spoke, he felt like he was about to cry.
"Yes, you can eat more after you've recovered." Winnie ate until her mouth was full of oil. She was a little impressed by the twenty-year-old young man.
As a promising sprinter, Nesta's life in Jamaica was very good, except for the food. Jamaica was the kingdom of sprinting. It was said that wherever there was open space, there would be people practicing sprinting. In such a country, it was obvious that a considerable amount of effort and luck were needed to achieve good results.
Nesta was a young man who worked hard and had talent, but lacked luck. He had just earned some money when he ruptured his Achilles tendon during a practice match. For sprinters, an Achilles tendon rupture basically meant the end of their career. Even the doctors in the United States did not dare to give Nesta any guarantee.
And it was expensive!
After a few consultations, Nesta finally chose to come to China for surgery. Although he had Liu Weichen's experience and the doctor's recommendation, for Nesta, as a patient, this was still a journey where he had to make every possible effort.
Even so, Nesta still did not choose the easiest way to indulge.
"Roasted beef tendon, I'll remember it. I'll come back to eat it after I retire." After Nesta said this, he turned his wheelchair and left the dining table.
Winnie smiled and nodded. When Nesta was a little further away, she said to Ling Ran, "Doctor Ling, please try your best to cure Nesta."
"I will," Ling Ran answered as he ate the meat quietly.
"You're confident, right?" When it came down to it, Winnie, who introduced Nesta to China, felt a heavy responsibility.
Ling Ran still nodded and said in the tone of a doctor, "There was a South African athlete who loved to cry before, and he recovered very well. Nesta's condition is similar to his, so there's a good chance."
Doctor Zhou asked curiously, "Does crying affect the surgery?"
