Doctor Yang noticed Xie Wanying sitting in a chair eating while flipping through dical records. Thinking she might be a new colleague and also a female doctor, he eagerly ca over to strike up a conversation: "Are you here to learn from Teacher Shim too?"
Xie Wanying looked up and replied truthfully: "No."
Upon hearing her say no, Doctor Yang’s face showed a clear hint of disappointnt, and with a slightly grudging tone, he forced a smile: "No, huh."
Xie Wanying could roughly guess why the other seed dejected, it was because of loneliness.
Compared to her, Xie Wanying wants to be a surgeon, while young female doctors who haven’t married or had children yet need an imnse amount of courage to beco cardiovascular interventionalists. As ntioned before, Senior Brother Yu and Senior Jin try to protect her as much as possible from entering the interventional operating room to avoid radiation. Young female doctors face a more realistic problem than young male doctors: marriage and preparing for pregnancy.
Being a doctor doesn’t an sacrificing oneself by not marrying or having children. So, even if you risk everything to learn at this young age, after graduating and becoming employed, female doctors nearing thirty need to plan marriage. Pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding after the child is born. For the sake of the child, a female doctor as a mother cannot enter the interventional operating room with radiation for at least a few years.
Any dical procedure is like a novice driver obtaining a license; if you don’t get on the road, don’t drive, don’t practice more in the clinic, it’s like learning in vain. With various concerns, many female doctors can only choose to learn in the future, wait until marriage and childbirth, then have the hospital send them for further training. Learning now can be like going through the motions, not needing to take it too seriously. But in this way, they definitely fall far behind male doctors. Male doctors don’t even need to consider the issues for those years after children are born.
Like Doctor Yang, who, upon hearing of an ergency surgery at night with a chance to practice, runs over here without hesitation, having a different mindset from others. It’s probably like Xie Wanying, with a character that doesn’t easily admit defeat.
Even though Xie Wanying denied she wasn’t, Doctor Yang pulled out a chair to sit down, intending to chat with her a bit. Loneliness, after all, ans there aren’t many female doctors here.
There are female doctors doing cardiovascular interventions at Guo Zhi Hospital, but they typically leave after work in the evening. During the day, there are many female dical students, but few like her are willing to co over at night, unafraid of radiation. The more one knows, the more frightened they beco inside. Additionally, the departnt tends to protect female colleagues, letting male doctors take on the arduous, thankless tasks first. Only dical technology is gender-neutral. It’s certainly understandable to enjoy the right not to learn while being protected, but it also ans giving up the chance to compete with others on the sa stage. To be an impressive doctor requires technical skills, and career advancent also demands skills.
"Which dical school are you a student of, are you a cardiovascular internal dicine graduate?" Looking at Xie Wanying’s appearance, Doctor Yang judged she was younger than him, possibly just here to check out the environnt.
"I’m a surgery student from Guoxie."
"A surgical student running to the intervention room at night—" Halfway through his speech, Doctor Yang realized the dical record she held wasn’t ordinary, suddenly understanding sothing, and a trace of sympathy appeared in his eyes, without asking further.
"Doctor Yang." A male doctor passing by in the hallway outside called inside the office, "The patient is coming up, you should prepare."
