This al was mostly taken care of by Liu Banxia. After dinner, Liu Banxia readily brought out Zhou Shuwen's tea, generously sharing it with everyone.
"Director, although this surgery carried significant risks, we indeed gained a lot from performing it," Chen Xuehai said.
Zhou Shuwen nodded. "Naturally. Every surgery provides us with experience, especially one as challenging as this."
"Currently, transplant surgeries in our country are not very common. The main reasons are the difficulty in finding donors, the high cost of surgery, and the risk of rejection."
"Compared to cardiothoracic surgery, we general surgeons perform more transplants. By the way, Banxia, how is the preparation for the fecal transplant for your patient with Auto-brewery Syndro going?"
"We examined the patient and did the bowel preparation today. I'm still not sure if this thod will be effective," Liu Banxia said.
"Our second fecal transplant patient didn't respond well after the first procedure. Wang Chao perford the second transplant yesterday, and I haven't had a chance to inquire about the patient's condition today."
"Don't put too much pressure on him; he doesn't have your thick skin," Zhou Shuwen said.
"The primary focus of our work will still fall on our surgical departnts. The Ergency Center has made a huge investnt. Departnts like Plastic Surgery and Obstetrics can bring us profit, but their initial investnt was also substantial."
"So, don't expect an increase in the number of attending physicians from internal dicine. In the future, surgeons will handle so triage work, which will also improve their patient reception abilities."
"We can't always wait for internal dicine to complete their examinations and have clear indications before surgeons get involved. We should be able to help internal dicine with so of their work; after all, they can't assist us in surgery."
"I don't expect everyone to be like Banxia, acting like a firefighter, rushing between departnts. In the future, you from cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, and general surgery should share more of internal dicine's burden, allowing them to have a more stable work schedule."
"Director, rest assured, that won't be a problem. Especially with new interns arriving, it will also alleviate the workload in all departnts," Chen Xuehai said.
"However, currently, the strongest departnt in our Ergency Center is still General Surgery. They need to shoulder more of the work. Xu Yino's six students are all quite good."
"Sigh... I guess I'll have to be the one to step up," Liu Banxia said. "Although their skills are decent, they still lack experience. Even if they can handle patient consultations independently, they'll still need so supervision occasionally."
"Director, after I step down as chief resident, I plan to devote more effort to pediatric general surgery and orthopedic surgery. Pediatric surgery is indeed a very important field. Old Chen and Old Zhang, you two need to push harder too."
"Why are you dragging into this again?" Zhang Xiao said with a bitter smile. "You've already dragged into enough trouble today. Please, just let off the hook, alright?"
Zhou Shuwen was amused again. "Zhang Xiao, don't belittle yourself. Actually, every surgeon who has co to work in our Ergency Center was soone I carefully discussed with their original departnt heads."
"It's fair to say they were very reluctant to let you all go. This also ans you all have significant room for growth."
"Banxia is more energetic, so if he wants to put more effort into pediatric surgery and orthopedics, I won't interfere. He can manage it himself. As for you two, I'll take this opportunity to make a small, explicit request: you can try to shift so of your energy towards pediatric surgery."
"Pediatric surgery, although a new subspecialty, is an unavoidable challenge for every one of us surgeons."
"In the future, as the number of newborns in our Ergency Center increases, so will the number of infants with congenital diseases. I'm not too worried about pediatrics; Chen Hongyang can manage that departnt well. But what about pediatric surgery? Often, we genuinely won't have enough ti to find soone else to perform the surgery. We can't afford to wait."
"Although our Ergency Center primarily focuses on ergency care, our goal is comprehensive developnt on top of that foundation."
"Banxia's hard work has not been in vain. In less than a year, the entire Ergency Center has undergone earth-shattering changes. Patient visit volus are increasing every quarter, every month."
"Director, please stop praising ; I'm getting a bit embarrassed," Liu Banxia said quickly.
"Actually, this is all the result of everyone's hard work. I don't actually see a large number of patients. Sotis I even have minor conflicts or create small incidents with patients."
"The real reason is that all our departnts are staffed with elite doctors and nurses who treat every patient conscientiously."
"I believe as long as we maintain this work attitude, managing our Ergency Center will be much smoother, and patient satisfaction will also significantly improve."
Zhou Shuwen nodded. "That's also true."
"Ahem, Director, you can actually praise a little more. I was just being modest, you know," Liu Banxia added.
This was purely to liven up the atmosphere, mainly because he noticed Zhang Xiao was a bit reserved. Perhaps because he had no experience chatting informally with Zhou Shuwen, he was still a bit dazed.
"Praise, my foot! Just cause less trouble, and that'll be enough. Stop interrupting; I need to continue," Zhou Shuwen glared at him.
"At present, not many hospitals are genuinely determined to invest in pediatric surgery. Although many newborn surgeries can be perford, their success rates or prognoses are not always ideal."
"You all should think carefully about this. If you truly decide to pursue this path, I will talk to the inpatient departnt later. So newborn surgeries can be assigned to you."
"As for the interns, if any are interested in developing in this area, we will also provide corresponding resource allocation. We'll assess the situation then; there will definitely be opportunities."
"Take Banxia, for instance. If I had known earlier he had such aspirations, I wouldn't have recomnded him for deputy director, nor would I have put him in charge of teaching and training. It would divert too much of his energy."
"Director, rest assured, this is also a decision I've made after careful consideration," Liu Banxia said.
"I don't expect to achieve results in a very short ti. We'll take it slowly. My primary surgical focus will still be general surgery. That's my ho departnt, and I must master it thoroughly first."
"As for the deputy director position, I still say the sa thing: I'd be fortunate to get it, but it's fate if I don't. I won't force it. And I must take charge of the teaching and training work because that can help share so of your workload, Director."
He was clearly stating his resolve, yet no one in the room felt his words were boastful.
It was because they knew Liu Banxia too well. The Liu Banxia of today didn't need such theatrics. Besides, when facing Zhou Shuwen, empty talk was useless.
"Are you really planning to manage both areas?" Chen Xuehai asked curiously.
"Yes, Teacher Wang Bo discussed it with ," Liu Banxia said. "From his perspective, it's mainly orthopedic surgery that requires a significant investnt of energy."
"As for pediatric surgery, it primarily requires an improvent in technique. After all, the organs are the sa; they're just smaller, developing versions."
"Often, the main reasons doctors are reluctant to perform pediatric surgery stem from psychological pressure and technical considerations."
"That's true. Even I feel so pressure in this area," Zhou Shuwen said.
"I actually think Linlin could also put so effort into this area. In recent years, many children have suffered from congenital heart disease. If surgical intervention can happen earlier, it would certainly help them recover their health more quickly."
"Director, let consider it," Liang Xiaolin said. "Actually, observing the little babies is quite enjoyable, but operating on them is genuinely very stressful."
"Alright, that's basically the focus for our upcoming work. Go back and give it so serious thought," Zhou Shuwen said.
"Although I phrased it as an order just now, it's still primarily voluntary. This will take up a lot of your energy, so consider it carefully."
"Director, we'll take our leave then," Liu Banxia and the others said as they stood up.
Truthfully, everyone wanted to chat a bit longer with Zhou Shuwen to get a better sense of the future direction of their work. However, they all knew Zhou Shuwen was too busy.
He didn't just have surgeries to perform; there were also many docunts to process and nurous etings to attend.
He wasn't just the director of the Ergency Center; he was also a Vice President of the Second Hospital.
"Sigh... next ti we eat, I must eat and drink more. How did I, a neurosurgeon, get tricked by you two?" Zhang Xiao complained once they were outside.
"Where shall we go for dinner?" Liang Xiaolin asked curiously.
"Let's go to Jinbao," Liu Banxia said. "When I get a day off, we'll coordinate with your schedules, and then we'll have a proper feast at Jinbao."
"This surgery was such a success; we absolutely must celebrate it properly. However, Comrade Old Chen, you need to be more careful in the future. You can't be so impulsive."
Liu Banxia spoke with earnest and heartfelt advice, which irritated Chen Xuehai imnsely, "If you hadn't proposed autotransplantation, would I have made that decision?"
"That's not how it works," Liu Banxia retorted. "True, I proposed it, but that was because you asked . If you hadn't asked, would I have said it?"
"Oh, alright, that's enough. Let's go back and organize the dical records," Liang Xiaolin said helplessly.
They're all adults, yet they act like children.
Her ti is so tight. She has at least one surgery every day, sotis even one and a half. She's already forgotten what rest even is.
