Chapter 86: 【86】First Entering Neurosurgery 2
The alarm of the monitoring equipnt beeped incessantly, conveying its warning from the patient ward to the office nurse station.
At such a mont, one couldn’t help but recall a famous line from a dical drama, “Excuse , are you afraid?”
Xie Wanying stood at the door, trying to find that senior who had exclaid, “Pons, pons, what shall I do with you?” Later, she had asked the instructor for the person’s na, and Instructor Ren’s response was simply, “Find out for yourself.”
They hadn’t contacted her again on QQ, seemingly too busy with work to get online.
A doctor’s busyness is truly hectic.
Therefore, dical students’ learning in a clinical setting doesn’t resemble the environnt in school, where teachers wait for you or seek you out, urging you to study. That’s just not possible. You must take the initiative to seek out teachers yourself.
...
Looking around the office, she saw no doctors standing alone; everyone was in groups of twos and threes. Based on experience, they were primarily interns and residents in training.
Upon seeing this, Xie Wanying walked into the office, approaching a few of her nearby classmates to inquire, “Excuse , do you know who the on-call doctor is tonight?”
“It’s Doctor Wang,” a girl with a ponytail told her. “Doctor Wang ntioned that they had sothing to take care of after handing over their shift and they haven’t arrived yet. Are you by yourself?”
“Yes, it’s just .”
“Which departnt are you from?” the other was curious about her being alone without any classmates.
“96th Guoxie Eight-Year Class.”
The group turned to look at her as if they now knew who she was.
The few girls and boys closest to her, with their backs towards her, whispered among themselves:
“It’s her.”
“Forty-nine male students and one female student – it’s definitely her.”
“She’s actually with us tonight?”
“What’s she studying? Since it’s 96 Class, she must be just an observer.”
“I rember their eight-year program doesn’t include surgery courses yet. Did she co to observe in surgery so early?”
“You know so much about their courses? Oh right, I forgot, soone in your family is a teacher at our dical school.”
Among dical students, there were many like Zhao Zhaowei with connections in university hospitals. Not like her, Xie Wanying, who had none. Hence, her mother tried to help by asking Zhou Ruoi for assistance in finding connections. Of course, she declined, telling her mother there was no need.
Before long, Doctor Wang arrived, their badge reading Resident. A bunch of interns and residents clattered over, encircling Doctor Wang. Suddenly, Doctor Wang beca the star of the show, standing in the spotlight at center stage.
Feeling that there were too many “fans” tonight, Doctor Wang let the people below organize themselves into groups and report back. Shortly after, a large group followed Doctor Wang off to conduct the nightti rounds.
During this ti, Xie Wanying remained still; if she hadn’t rembered incorrectly, after eight years, her senior peers should all be at least attending physicians.
When those people ran after Doctor Wang, so looked back, finding it strange to see her standing there dumbly. So found it amusing, thinking the Eight-Year Program had indeed made her book-smart but clueless. Later, Xie Wanying would learn that the Eight-Year Program was always criticized on the clinical floor for producing bookworms.
After the large group left, Xie Wanying took so ti to familiarize herself with the environnt of the doctors’ office. Electronic dical records were now in use, and doctors needed to be proficient with computers. However, there was no rush as computer logins required permissions which she, as an observer, did not possess. Nonetheless, she could check the dical record papers available in the office to see what and where they were.
“Doctor Huang, have you started your shift?”
