After getting off work, he was constantly thinking about Su Qianqian.
Now that he has bee a full-fledged doctor, the requirements in all aspects have bee stricter. Taking leave might bee a luxury for him.
Unless it’s something extremely urgent, otherwise, for anything that es up, he can only try to handle it after work.
In the past month or so, the department has been quite considerate of him.
He hasn’t been assigned a single night shift.
Perhaps they considered that he performs emergency surgeries every day, and is an absolute mainstay. A night’s duty is generally very taxing on a doctor.
Having to continue with a day shift, and even perform surgeries on patients.
If any mistake occurs, it would cause significant loss to the department.
The number of people available for night shifts isn’t particularly tight, so Zhou Can is not indispensable. At most, his avoidance of night shifts might invite plaints from other doctors in the department.
Surely, someone will feel unbalanced.
Walking out of the Emergency Department building, he headed straight to the underground parking lot.
Fame is daunting like a fat pig is to slaughter.
Now, he has bee a mainstay in the Emergency Department, consults in Pediatrics once a week, and has even made a name for himself at the Cardiothoracic Surgery departmental head selection meeting. When dealing with personal matters, it’s best to be as cautious as possible.
The hospital staff is vast and plex, and you never know if a random cleaning lady is a relative of a hospital leadership member.
If someone overhears a private phone call, it could negatively impact Zhou Can.
Once inside the Mercedes, he dialed the number of Chen Guoli, the old Chinese medicine doctor.
He could only try again thick-skinned to ask Elder Chen for a private consultation.
"Hello Elder Chen, this is Xiao Zhou, who came with my girlfriend to your dormitory for a medical consultation last time, do you remember?"
"The boyfriend of the young lady with kidney failure, right?"
"Yes, yes! Now we’ve followed your instructions and pleted three courses of medicine, with a month’s break in between. Yesterday’s hospital review showed the condition has recurred. Is it convenient for you to help us take a look again?"
Zhou Can was respectful and polite.
When asking for help, you definitely have to humble yourself.
"Sure, sure!"
Chen Guoli agreed readily.
"I am very busy at the hospital during the day and really can’t take a break, and this condition can’t be delayed. Would it be alright to e to your dormitory in the evening?"
"Of course! e on over! I’m at the dormitory!"
"Thank you so much! See you soon!"
After finishing the call with Chen Guoli, Zhou Can quickly phoned Su Qianqian.
He asked Wei Fang to drive and take her directly to Chen Guoli’s dormitory.
Zhou Can drove there straight away.
This way, they could save the most time.
...
It wasn’t far from Tuya Hospital to Chen Guoli’s dormitory; after about twenty minutes, Zhou Can arrived at the destination.
However, he parked the car outside the Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Institute, quietly waiting to meet up with Su Qianqian.
Last time, when bringing a gift to seek Elder Chen’s help, he was refused.
This time, he decided not to bring trouble upon himself.
Better to go empty-handed.
Some doctors have high medical ethics and very low material demands. Respecting them is the best way to interact with them.
Not knowing when Su Qianqian would arrive, he took out his phone and idly scrolled through it.
He was part of several work groups.
Usually, he doesn’t check messages from other work groups much since he is currently in the Emergency Department.
At the moment, he found the Cardiothoracic Surgery group unusually active and clicked in out of curiosity to see.
"The Third Hospital is impressive. These are pictures my friend took of the Cardiothoracic Surgery outpatient waiting lines!"
Attached were a few photos.
In the outpatient hall, a long queue resembling a paper clip could be seen, probably more than two hundred people to make it so spectacular.
Foreign experts are indeed popular!
Zhou Can couldn’t help but sigh.
Today was the first day the Japanese expert hired by the Third Hospital opened outpatient surgery consultations to the public. The scene was truly grand.
It really makes people wonder if there are so many patients in urgent need of heart surgery in the provincial capital.
Moreover, patients needing heart surgery generally have emergency or critical conditions. If crowded together, queuing might delay the best rescue time, aren’t they afraid of incidents?
Of course, it is also possible that the Third Hospital used marketing tactics, hiring some extras to queue and create a grand scene.
This isn’t just exclusive to bubble tea shops.
Many private hospitals learned this long ago.
And have perfected its use.
"Today, our cardiothoracic department received only 117 patients, business has shrunk significantly. The Third Hospital has clearly surpassed us now."
The person speaking was a principal doctor from the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department.
This person was a disciple of Vice Director Hee.
Generally speaking, obtaining the day’s emergency and outpatient statistics isn’t that easy.
Vice Director Hee instigates his subordinate doctors to spread such crisis rhetoric, which is quite sinister.
Moreover, there were quite a few people setting the tone in the group.
This is a departmental work group, and when Director Hu Kan was alive, everyone spoke cautiously.
Most posts were meeting notices, certain business adjustment notifications, or asking someone to the discussion room for a consultation and similar professional remarks.
Now the group is in an uproar, and Director Xue Yan’s pressure must be even greater.
Her position as director isn’t as stable as imagined!
Women inherently face disadvantages in the workplace, and after she took office, she didn’t employ decisive measures to intimidate others. Vice Director Hee, relying on his seniority and solid connections, probably gave her no small amount of trouble.
