My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 12 12 The Benevolent Heart of a Doctor

"Just trying to cozy up to such a man brimming with mature charm, to inquire about his condition, was very likely to result in being turned away.

This kind of successful man, with a rich life experience, having seen all sorts of worlds, has dealt with all kinds of people.

Wise, mature and steady, with an especially high alertness.

Approaching him without cause would surely increase this man's guard.

How could one quickly gain this person's initial trust?

Zhou Can didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket.

But the only suitable patient he could find at the mont was this man.

The man had already begun to climb the steps.

The distance from Zhou Can was getting closer and closer.

And that's when the accident happened.

The man stumbled and almost fell.

Zhou Can couldn't help but be overjoyed, the opportunity had co.

He imdiately dashed over and supported the man.

"Sir, are you alright?"

"No... problem. Just a bit of chest stuffiness, angina. Thank you just now."

The man managed to squeeze out a faint smile.

When Zhou Can supported the man, he realized that the man's body was trembling slightly.

Coupled with the man's self-reported symptoms of chest stuffiness and angina, he realized the seriousness of the issue.

"I am an intern doctor at Tuya Hospital. Seeing your pale complexion, along with symptoms of chest stuffiness and angina, I suspect it's related to a cardiac condition. Have you had any history of heart disease before?"

Zhou Can helped him towards the outpatient hall.

Hearing that Zhou Can was a doctor from Tuya Hospital, the man's trust in him obviously increased a lot.

"I have no history of that. This morning after running, I returned ho and felt so chest stuffiness, difficulty catching my breath. After the shower and changing clothes, I had bouts of angina in my left chest, so I hurried to the doctor."

The man briefly described the onset of his condition.

"Just now when you were climbing the steps and nearly fell, did you also experience dizziness?"

"Yes, I did feel sowhat dizzy, on and off."

Chest tightness, shortness of breath, angina, accompanied by dizziness.

And it is exercise-related.

A critical disease na popped up in Zhou Can's mind.

Coronary heart disease.

And likely acute coronary syndro.

This is a very dangerous disease. It could take a patient's life in an extrely short period of ti.

[Diagnostic Experience Points 1.]

[Congratulations, your diagnostic skills have been upgraded to Level 3, current Experience Points 0/1000. Lower level resident doctor.]

The wish to upgrade his diagnostic skills to Level 3 had finally co true.

He now had the dical skills of a resident doctor in five subjects, and in the regular training exams, he definitely had the capability to outshine the others.

"From what you've described and the various symptoms shown, the situation doesn't look good. The outpatient registration doesn't start until 8 o'clock, I suggest you go to the Ergency Departnt imdiately."

Zhou Can advised earnestly.

"I've never been to the Ergency Departnt!"

The man's body was trembling even more.

And most of his weight was leaning on Zhou Can's arm.

This ant his condition was rapidly deteriorating.

Zhou Can glanced at the ti, there were only 4 minutes left until the entrance ti for the regular training exam. Taking this man to the Ergency Departnt was not sothing that could be done in one or two minutes.

It would cause him to be late for the exam.

"Do you not have a family mber to accompany you for the doctor's visit?"

"My child is studying abroad, and my wife is extrely busy with work. I thought it wouldn't be a serious issue, so I ca by myself."

Without a family mber to accompany him, leaving the man here uncared for might lead to the loss of a precious life due to missing the best opportunity for rescue.

Although Zhou Can wouldn't have to take any responsibilities, he might suffer from a lifeti of guilt.

However, if he accompanied the man to the Ergency Departnt, he would definitely be late for the regular training exam.

The price he would pay was extrely high.

He might lose the opportunity for residency training.

Life is such a play of fate.

He had been preparing for so long, exerting countless efforts, often staying up late until one or two in the morning to improve his dical skills. He was on the verge of impressing everyone in the regular training exam with his now Level 3 dical skills.

Who could have predicted this turn of events at such a crucial ti?

"To accompany the man to the Ergency Departnt? Or to abandon him and rush to the regular training exam?"

This was an extrely difficult choice.

Even though the man was suffering from severe chest pain, his rich life experience allowed him to see Zhou Can's hesitation.

"Young man, are you in a hurry to get back to your post? It's okay, go on with your work. I can manage," the man said, understanding the difficulties for these interns.

At this mont, Zhou Can had made up his mind.

Since day one at dical school, their teachers had taught them that "For a doctor, morality cos first, and dical skills are secondary. Morality without skills can be acquired; skills without morality will only get you so far."

A doctor without dical ethics will never beco a renowned physician.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the Ergency Departnt! Honestly, I have an examination for my standardized training today, and there are only 4 minutes left before the exam starts. But compared to your life, what is that, really?"

Zhou Can led the man towards the Ergency Departnt.

"The noble dical ethics of the young man are admirable. Is my condition really that serious?"

The man was obviously skeptical of his diagnosis.

As an intern, his dical level was definitely average.

There could be a misdiagnosis, or he might be easily alard by a condition that's slightly more serious.

"It's very serious. I suspect it might be Acute Coronary Syndro, which has a rapid onset and vicious progression that can take a life in a very short ti. You might have triggered it by running in the morning, and then using cold water to shower when you got ho, further aggravating your condition. I suggest you contact your family imdiately, as any surgery will require a family mber's signature."

Zhou Can earnestly inford the man of the potential consequences.

Hearing the severity of the situation, the man hesitated for a mont but eventually called his wife and asked her to co to the hospital.

Zhou Can faintly heard the woman sobbing on the other end of the phone upon learning about the seriousness of her husband's condition. It was evident that the couple had a good relationship.

In tis of crisis, you can always rely on your closest loved ones.

The thought made him yearn even more for the beauty of love.

He assisted the man all the way to the Ergency Departnt.

"I am a resident doctor from General Surgery at Tuya Hospital. This patient has chest tightness, angina, and dizziness, and is likely suffering from coronary artery disease with rapidly worsening condition. Please arrange for his diagnosis and treatnt imdiately."

Zhou Can showed his intern certification and explained the situation to the ergency departnt's on-duty doctor.

This was the most straightforward and efficient way to communicate.

"Is there any accompanying family mber?"

"No!"

"Let's give him a physical examination first!"

The on-duty doctor seed to value Zhou Can's diagnostic opinion quite highly. Being from Tuya, he knew that even Tuya's interns would have a solid foundation in dicine.

"Sir, did you bring your ID card? I'll help you register for ergency treatnt, and then my colleagues will take over your examination and treatnt," Zhou Can said.

"Today I was fortunate to et you."

The man quickly took out his ID card along with a hundred-yuan bill and handed them to Zhou Can.

After completing the registration, Zhou Can returned the change, registration receipt, and ID card to the man.

The on-duty doctor was now asuring the patient's blood pressure and heart rate.

"The situation does not look good; we need to perform an electrocardiogram and ultrasound examination imdiately," the on-duty doctor said gravely. "Mr. Cui, please inform your family to co to the hospital right away. It's urgent."

At this point, the man already had difficulty speaking.

"He has already inford his family. They should be arriving shortly. I need to attend the standardized training exam, so I will be leaving now."

Before he left, Zhou Can briefly explained the cause of the man's symptoms and the symptoms he had reported.

When he left, his heart was heavy.

He hoped the man would be alright.

A few minutes later, he ran to the temporary site of the standardized training exam.

A few security guards were stationed outside the exam hall, probably to maintain order when there were more people around.

At this mont, not a single candidate could be seen.

Zhou Can checked the ti: 8:21 AM, he was 21 minutes late.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"

The security guard saw him trying to rush inside and imdiately stopped him.

"I am a resident doctor from Tuya, here for the standardized training exam. Sorry, guys, I was delayed by an ergency. Could you please let in?" Zhou Can explained.

"To have such an important thing and still be late, you're quite sothing. We don't have the authority to let you in, but we can ask for you."

The security guards didn't give him a hard ti.

They ran inside to ask for him.

Soon after, they returned with a middle-aged woman with glasses.

"This is Deputy Director Hu from the HR departnt, you can explain your situation to her."

"Director Hu, good day. My na is Zhou Can, and I am an intern at the hospital. I was delayed by an ergency on my way here, so I am late. Could you perhaps let in to take the exam?" Zhou Can was very deferential.

When addressing her, he instinctively omitted the word 'Deputy.'

Generally speaking, people whose titles include 'Deputy' dream of having it removed. When addressing them by their titles, it's best not to call them 'Deputy Director' or 'Deputy Chief.'

Otherwise, it's a surefire way to annoy them.

"I don't care what you were delayed by, being late is wrong. Being nearly half an hour late shows that you don't take the hospital's recruitnt process seriously. We put people first in our hospital, prioritize ethics and character. Candidates like you, who have no concept of ti, actually don't need to sit the exam anymore."

Deputy Director Hu elevated the issue to one of character and tactfully denied Zhou Can's request to enter the exam.
