Ever since Miao Tansheng resigned from the hospital, he had been focused on making money.
And he did make money. Compared to other people of the same age in the hospital, Miao Tansheng's monthly income from cosmetic surgery alone was equivalent to the income of a whole group of young attending physicians. Miao Tansheng's monthly income from Lower Groove Clinic was not any lower than that of an associate chief physician in a tertiary Grade A hospital. His double eyelid surgery, as well as injections of hyaluronic acid.
Of course, this was also because of Lower Groove Clinic. Because of this, Miao Tansheng cherished his current job.
However, a person's mind would change. Now that he had earned money, Miao Tansheng could not help but think about all sorts of things.
Thoughts of improving his skills and performing high-end surgeries would always pop up in Miao Tansheng's mind. It was just like the cheeks that had been injected with hyaluronic acid. There would always be a situation that reminded him that he needed to receive another injection.
Unfortunately, it was easy for doctors who left big hospitals to earn money, but it was not so easy when it came to skills and surgeries.
The development of modern medicine continuously promoted the specialization and teamwork of surgeries. In the past, there was no essential difference between appendectomy performed in township hospitals and those performed in big hospitals. Some county hospitals had experienced surgeons, and the results might be better than those performed by novices in big hospitals.
However, with the appearance of laparoscopes, the situation was very different. Hospitals that could not afford laparoscopes or could not use laparoscopes well would inevitably fall behind, regardless of their skills.
Surgeries that required more skills and were more complicated were naturally more unfriendly to small hospitals and clinics.
Miao Tansheng could be said to be very focused on looking for opportunities, but for a doctor who left the system, opportunities themselves were very opportunistic.
In Miao Tansheng's opinion, there was really no better opportunity than Lower Groove Clinic.
If Ling Jiezhou and Ling Ran were willing to expand Lower Groove Clinic, the opportunity would be even harder to come by.
"I can find the patients." Miao Tansheng decided to seize this opportunity, and while the Ling family's father and son were talking, he answered loudly.
He knew very well how busy a doctor like Ling Ran was. If he did not seize the opportunity this time, he did not know when he would see him again. At that time, Ling Ran and Ling Jiezhou might think differently.
Miao Tansheng's interruption stunned Ling Jiezhou for a moment.
Ling Jiezhou then smiled. "Old Miao, where are you going to look for patients? Don't be a murderer at night."
"With this body of mine, I can't even carry a machete." Miao Tansheng answered casually before he quickly said, "Of course, I can still hold the scalpel. It won't be a problem for me to persist for four to five hours in a normal surgery."
"Amazing." Ling Jiezhou laughed.
"Although I've left the hospital, my old connections are still there." Miao Tansheng changed the topic and said, "If we're talking about patients, everyone knows about the current conditions in public hospitals. Many of them can't even find a hospital bed. If Doctor Ling is in charge of the clinic, I don't think it'll be too difficult for him to find a few patients."
Miao Tansheng's puffy eyes trembled to hide the nervousness in his heart.
If the clinic were to carry out surgeries, he would naturally be the best assistant. Doctor Xiong was too old. It was not a problem for him to sit in the consultation room, chat, and write prescriptions, but it was impossible for him to perform surgeries.
Although the types of surgeries that could be carried out were limited, and there was almost no choice, Miao Tansheng was very excited when he thought that the chief surgeon would be Ling Ran.
At his current position, he could be said to be extremely lucky to have a treatment group leader from Yun Hua Hospital guiding him in surgery.
Ling Jiezhou could somewhat see through Miao Tansheng's thoughts. He hesitated for a moment, looked at his son, and said, "Young Ran, you're already busy enough in the hospital. The clinic is running quite well, so you should do what you can."
"It's not a bad thing to have a few more hospital beds." Ling Ran thought about it and said, "If it's an Achilles tendon repair, I think the clinic is more suitable …"
The Achilles tendon repair technique could be said to be one of the most advanced surgeries that Ling Ran had mastered. Not only was the Achilles tendon repair technique at Perfect Level, but the Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique, which was mainly developed by Academician Zhu, was also a world-class advanced surgical method. On the other hand, Ling Ran had mastered a lot of limb anatomy and foot anatomy, which was also something that ordinary doctors could not complete in their lifetime.
In addition, the Achilles tendon repair technique did not have high requirements for the operating theater and equipment. Ordinary Achilles tendon repair techniques used small incisions, and the technical content was slightly higher. Ling Ran used a large incision, but the required conditions could also be provided by the operating theater in Lower Groove Clinic.
Moreover, the recovery time for Achilles tendon repair techniques was generally long. This was also the reason why Ling Ran rarely performed Achilles tendon repair techniques in Yun Hua Hospital and often went to the Orthopedic and Sports Medical Center to perform them.
If he performed Achilles tendon repair techniques in Lower Groove Clinic, the corresponding shortcomings would no longer be a lack of space. Based on the current utilization rate of the hospital beds in the clinic, the longer the patient stayed, the happier Ling Jiezhou would be.
"Can you really do it?" Ling Jiezhou asked Ling Ran very seriously.
Ling Ran nodded. "The requirements for Achilles tendon repair techniques are not high. I can also pick up this surgery."
If it was not an athlete level Achilles tendon repair technique, Ling Ran's Zhu-Ling Achilles Repair Technique would not be needed. In other words, the Achilles tendon repair technique performed by ordinary doctors was already enough to meet the ordinary needs of ordinary people.
In this case, Ling Ran was naturally more inclined to use the hospital beds for patients who needed hepatectomy.
However, it was still a bit of a waste to have this kind of skill but not use it.
Ling Ran felt that it was a good choice to use it in his home clinic.
"It's naturally good if you're willing to do it." Ling Jiezhou easily relented and said, "When Miss Tian helped refurbish the clinic, she helped apply for a lot of medical qualifications. It's also good to use them now."
As Ling Jiezhou spoke, he looked at Miao Tansheng and said frankly, "Doctor Miao, what do you think? Let's just say it directly. "
"I want to learn skills from Doctor Ling …" Miao Tansheng quickly expressed his thoughts. In fact, there was nothing to hide. It was very natural for a doctor to want to perform some surgeries and do some technical work.
When Ling Jiezhou heard that Miao Tansheng's request did not involve the issue of commission at all, he immediately felt relieved. He comforted Miao Tansheng in a friendly manner, "I know how to learn skills. Hmm, it's rare for Doctor Miao to have this kind of mentality. Let's not talk about students and teachers. Doctor Miao, make arrangements as soon as possible. Let's perform the surgery first."
"There's also nursing," Ling Ran reminded.
"No problem." Ling Jiezhou patted his chest and agreed. He turned around and took out his phone to send a message.
On the other side, Miao Tansheng was also in high spirits. He also took out his phone and sent a message.
Ling Ran sat back on the recliner, took out his phone, and clicked on the game with great familiarity.
