Beidu’s outstanding female dical students are similar to those at Guoxie, primarily following an internal dicine track. Those who choose surgery are often overshadowed in clinical performance by their male counterparts and thus do not receive special attention.
There are several hurdles for females in surgery, besides the most commonly ntioned physical strength disparity, the crucial difference is that females generally possess less boldness than males.
In fact, there’s a saying within the industry that can comfort female students, hospitals prefer to hire males because they have greater physical strength and can be worked like beasts of burden.
Song Xueling wouldn’t judge the level of Guoxie’s male students by the two in front of him because he had heard they were internal dicine students. If males choose internal dicine, it often suggests they’re a cut below in terms of capability.
The male surgery students didn’t follow Xie Wanying, presuming surgical students wouldn’t be willing to admit defeat to a female. Unwillingness is one thing, but actual performance and capability are a different matter. It’s not guaranteed that a male surgical student could outperform her. She was indeed a rarity; even he felt that anyone he considered rare must truly be rare.
Like today, he planned only to stop by Hepatobiliary Surgery for a quick greeting. He had just finished his studies at school this week and was preparing his belongings for surgery before leaving his alma mater. He would officially start at Guoxie Affiliated Hospital the week after next—there was no rush.
Unexpectedly, Tao Zhijie invited him to join this evening’s group discussion, and he agreed, deciding to stay. It wasn’t so much that he was eager to dive into his unit’s work as it was the incident he encountered this afternoon, which inexplicably made him curious about her subsequent story.
He got the chance he was waiting for. Not surprisingly, Tao Zhijie inquired about the afternoon’s incident, “How’s the pregnant woman with acute appendicitis doing?”
“She underwent a laparoscopic operation.” Xie Wanying answered.
“Was it perford by Dr. Tan?”
“Yes.” Xie Wanying thought this answer was correct; after all, the surgery was under Teacher Tan’s direction.
“Did Dr. Tan take the lead?”
Senior Tao unexpectedly asked this question, which caused a flicker of bewildernt in Xie Wanying’s eyes.
Not hearing an imdiate answer from her, Tao Zhijie realized the implication and gave her a deeper smile. He flicked the end of his pen and said to her, “Yingying, don’t be too humble.”
“I’m not—”
“Tell , who was the chief surgeon?”
Xie Wanying had to think hard about how to clarify this question, “Teacher Tan was the first assistant, but without Teacher Tan—”
“Did he scold you during the surgery? Did he kick you out? Did you complete the entire surgery as the chief surgeon?” Tao Zhijie hit the nail on the head with each question.
“Yes, I was the chief surgeon under Teacher Tan’s guidance. I am not being humble.” Xie Wanying responded, feeling that perhaps her understanding of the word “humble” differed from others’. Speaking should be about sticking to the facts. How could sticking to the facts be considered humility? She felt that the operation that evening was led by Teacher Tan, not her, a conclusion that was surely shared by everyone in the operating room at the ti.
The seniors sitting in front of her all laughed at her words, their eyes looking at her growing deep just like Tao Zhijie’s.
Tao Zhijie turned his head, smiling, and asked the other doctors in the group, “What do you think about what she said?”
“Excessive humility is tantamount to setting very high standards for oneself,” He Guangyou said.
“Her vision is far-reaching,” added Qiu Ruiyun.
The other three doctors, eting Xie Wanying for the first ti, also gave their opinions when prompted by Tao Zhijie:
“A sowhat unrealistic blind pursuit.”
