Chapter 169
Originally intended to be drawn on paper.
Later thought about it, and decided that creating it on a computer might be better.
That way there wouldn’t be the need for another trip to send the drawings to Mr. Cui.
…
The next day, as he went to work at the hospital, Zhou Can still had Qiu Jie’s underlying illness on his mind.
But he couldn’t figure it out.
He decided to consult Dr. Xu.
As one of the three renowned surgeons, formerly a Level 1 Chief Physician, surely his abilities wouldn’t solely lie in surgery. His diagnostic skills couldn’t be lacking either. In terms of insight and experience, he greatly surpassed Zhou Can.
After looking, Dr. Xu shook his head.
“The patient’s blood potassium data, intravenous pyelography, electrocardiograms are all normal. So, the patient’s lesion is likely to be neural, but as you know, nerves are not like blood vessels. Unless there are obvious symptoms like compression, atrophy, or necrosis, it’s difficult to detect with modern medical technology. This isn’t my specialty. If this patient is your relative or a good friend, you might as well swallow your pride and ask Director Yin Hua from neurology to take a look.”
Every famous doctor has their specialities.
Dr. Xu’s expertise lay in surgery, and he knew very little about neurology, considered the most difficult branch of medicine.
He might not be any better than Zhou Can.
“Okay, I’ll go find him after work! Thank you, teacher!”
Zhou Can was not disappointed; after all, he took on this matter with the intention to learn.
If the lesion could be found, that would be best, and if not, then it was simply Qiu Jie’s fate.
…
Inside the emergency surgery room, Dr. Lu arrived early.
Unlike usual, his face carried a hint of gravity, a touch of worry between his brows that he couldn’t hide.
In the past, he might have relied on his seniority to suppress talented newcomers like Zhou Can.
He even once thought highly of himself and was ready to promote to a senior physician this year.
Until yesterday, when he finally recognized the reality.
His surgical skills were that poor.
The two newcomers he had looked down upon, including Zhou Can, had already surpassed him. Especially Zhou Can, who was incredibly strong.
He had personally seen Zhou Can complete numerous Level 2 surgeries on his own.
Now what he needed to consider was how to avoid being eliminated.
Dr. Xu soon walked into the surgery room expressionless.
“Xiao Zhou and Jin Mingxi, you two each lead a nurse in surgery. Xiao Zhou, you attended the meeting yesterday, so your Level 2 surgery qualification is temporarily suspended. To participate in significant parts of Level 2 surgeries, you’ll probably have to wait until you get your practicing physician’s license.”
Dr. Xu said somewhat helplessly.
Seeing his favorite student’s progress impeded, the one who was most upset wasn’t Zhou Can, but Dr. Xu.
Before obtaining the medical license, one is called a Medical Officer.
After obtaining it, one becomes a Physician.
The level of surgical tasks one can participate in can also be upgraded.
“Teacher, it’s alright. I’ll focus on mastering Level 1 surgeries, solidifying the fundamentals. After I get my license, I’ll perform Level 2 surgeries, which will surely be more stable and better.”
For Zhou Can, he had the Experience Points system.
Without performing Level 2 surgeries, besides Advanced Medical Skill, it was hard to earn Experience Points, but his basic medical skills wouldn’t be greatly affected.
He was like slaked lime.
The more cold water enemies splashed on him, the more he boiled with enthusiasm.
One year later, if he managed to upgrade several basic medical skills to the level of senior or even associate chief physician, he would be much more formidable than ten times what he was now.
Sooner or later, he would give Director Xie a big surprise.
Dr. Xu nodded, “It’s best that you can think this way! Seedlings that grow in adversity turn the strongest.” Dr. Xu feared that this matter would strike him, causing negative emotions.
Which could affect his work enthusiasm.
But now it seems this disciple is stronger than imagined.
His psychological resilience far exceeds ordinary people.
Unyielding, unbreakable, tenaciously striving for upward growth.
“Dr. Lu, you’ll be my assistant.”
“Alright!”
Dr. Lu accepted this time without any discontent, as this reflected a change after facing reality.
If he didn’t adjust his attitude, he would truly have no chance left.
Qiao Yu and Li Shishi quickly entered the surgical room.
To have a voice, you need strength!
If Zhou Can hadn’t been so skilled in surgery, Dr. Xu and Director Lou wouldn’t have been able to win over Qiao Yu as his assistant.
She has been on morning shifts for these two weeks.
Zhou Can couldn’t have felt happier.
Every day he could work on surgeries with a perfectly compatible and beautiful female nurse, which delighted him all day long. The efficiency of the surgery was excellent.
“Don’t rush, there’ll be a day when she becomes your exclusive instrument nurse. Zhou Can believes this day won’t be too far off, probably less than three years.”
Qiao Yu strode towards Zhou Can.
With a charming smile, she said, “Hey, your old partner is here again!”
“Heh, welcome!”
Zhou Can responded with a smile.
“Just a welcome, huh? Then I must work harder. I hope that the moment I appear, you’ll be happy.” She managed to get two weeks of the morning shift, and it was evident she was very happy.
After finding out that Zhou Can helped her get the morning shift, she seemed to become more intimate with him.
It’s hard to describe.
Just the way she looked at Zhou Can, her tone of voice, and the scope of her conversation – significantly more intimate than before.
“Haha, I’m looking forward to that day.”
To be honest, Zhou Can was already very happy the moment she appeared.
Today, Jin Mingxi was also exceptionally joyful, with a smiling face.
