Chapter 284
They might think that after spending hundreds of thousands, were they tricked by the doctor?
Maybe not having the surgery, waiting one or two days could also get better naturally.
But that’s really not the case.
The work of explanation would be done by doctors and nurses.
Most family members, although skeptical, would accept the doctor’s explanation once they see their loved ones recover and get discharged.
From this point of view, the reputation of a hospital is extremely important.
For a renowned top-level provincial hospital like Tu Ya, not much explanation is needed as patients naturally trust them.
…
After the surgery, Zhou Can followed Director Wen straight back to the doctor’s office.
What’s next?
The surgery on patient 22 was performed by Director Wen, and now there are complications, of course we need to figure out a solution.
Calling the team doctors for a consultation is the basic procedure.
Just reached the corridor of the inpatient ward, Cheng Gang saw from afar Director Wen coming with a large group of doctors.
He immediately stood respectfully, smiling broadly, ready to greet them proactively.
“Good day, Director Wen! I heard the surgery on patient 31 was very successful, the family was overwhelmingly grateful when the patient was transferred back to the ward!”
“Haha, really! Relieving patients’ suffering is our basic duty as doctors. Tell the family and patient to cooperate well with the doctor’s post-operative care.”
A haughty behavior is never easily penetrated, unlike other tricks.
This flattery from Cheng Gang brought a full smile to Director Wen’s face.
At that moment, Cheng Gang caught sight of Zhou Can among Director Wen’s group.
His gaze fixed on Zhou Can.
“Xiao Zhou, after finishing the surgery, quickly go to work in the ward. There are signs of infection in the wound of patient 27, go handle it.”
In front of Director Wen, Cheng Gang was obsequious like a fawning dog.
But when talking to Zhou Can, he adopted an aloof and commanding tone.
The phrase “a rank higher crushes the one below” is not just applicable in the office bureaucracy, but also in hospitals.
Zhou Can looked at him with a defiant stare.
I won’t listen to you, there’s nothing you can do.
“Xiao Cheng, Zhou Can has been transferred to my team to participate in the training program.”
Director Wen’s words were like a thunderclap, leaving Cheng Gang completely stunned.
In disbelief, he asked, “He’s directly transferred to your team?”
“Do you have a problem with that?”
Director Wen’s tone turned cold.
With someone inconsequential like Resident Doctor Cheng, Director Wen had no semblance of friendliness, let alone any hint of humor.
“No objections, no objections, please don’t misunderstand. I’m just happy for him!”
Cheng Gang realized that Director Wen’s tone and expression were stern, quickly clarified his statement.
“Xiao Zhou, to be included in Director Wen’s team, that’s a huge opportunity, you know? Under Director Wen, every supervising and resident doctor is among the elite. You should work diligently with the new resident doctors, understand?”
In Cheng Gang’s mind, Zhou Can being favored by Director Wen was a stroke of massive luck.
The most Director Wen would do is to have one of his resident doctors guide Zhou Can.
This was a routine practice among head doctors.
“Dr. Zhou is highly skilled in surgeries, we are not qualified to mentor him. Instead, it’s Director Wen who personally guides him.”
Three residents quickly clarified.
Cheng Gang is really a chatterbox.
Blabbering a lot, he almost made the three residents also take the blame.
“What? Director Wen personally guides him?”
Cheng Gang’s eyes nearly bulged out of shock.
Only now did he realize that Zhou Can didn’t just luck out, but rose on his own merits, rocketing up.
Receiving high recognition and favor from Director Wen.
Otherwise, with Director Wen’s status, not only a training doctor, even a supervising doctor isn’t necessarily taught personally.
Director Wen completely ignored Cheng Gang’s shocked and jealous expression, leading the doctors in his team into the office. To him, Cheng Gang was as insignificant as a blade of grass by the roadside.
Zhou Can merely glanced indifferently at Cheng Gang.
Unsurprisingly, the days when Cheng Gang bossed him around have come to an end. Going forward, Cheng Gang, upon encountering him, was likely to find ways to ingratiate himself.
After entering the office, Zhou Can was now a new member of the team.
He consciously chose the rearmost seat.
This was more back than even the position of three postgraduate students.
Being low-key comprises an attitude and cultivation; it enables one to draw favor like the mild spring breeze, significantly increasing others’ favorable perception while decreasing the prospects of making adversaries.
The only challenge lies in overcoming one’s vanity and desire to show off.
“Tang Li, first bring up patient 22’s data and the latest EEG on the screen for everyone to review.”
Director Wen ordered his female attending doctor.
“Okay!”
She projected the latest EEG of the patient onto the screen.
“This patient underwent cerebrovascular malformation surgery yesterday. Everyone must still remember. Complications after the surgery are common. Now, the patient has postoperative epilepsy and has fallen into coma twice. The patient’s family is very emotional and made quite a scene. Everyone, take a look at the recently conducted EEG and the enhanced head CT.”
Director Wen was actually quite annoyed by this situation.
Postoperative complications, to put it nicely, are a common occurrence.
But to be blunt, it might also suggest poor surgical skills, incomplete, or improper surgery, causing other symptoms.
As for responsibility, Director Wen definitely couldn’t shirk it.
However, to call it a medical accident and discipline accordingly, that just doesn’t arise.
