Chapter 313: Excellent reception results, Xinxiang Women and Children's Hospital wants to take on a tough task
This is at Xinxiang Maternal and Child Health Hospital. If the patients are sent to Tuya Hospital, the hospital may not agree.
The attitude of Xinxiang Maternity and Child Health Hospital on certain interests can be seen from the female patient who underwent lung cancer surgery.
"As long as Xinxiang is capable of completing the procedure, we will give priority to doing it here. For larger surgical cases, it may be better to discuss them together after get off work. If the patient lives in the city, you can let the patient go home and wait for notification."
Director Zhang Bihua gave guidance.
"Okay, I'll let the family members go back first."
After Zhou Can consulted, he sent the family to take the child home first. The family also needed to go home to raise medical expenses, so they readily agreed.
Next, Zhou Can continued to see other patients.
During the lunch break, he sent the X-ray of the boy with deformed hands to Director Shen of the Orthopedic Surgery Department of Tuya Hospital.
In diagnosis and treatment, it is very helpful to know the chief physicians of some important departments.
For difficult surgical cases like this one, Zhou Can can consult orthopedic surgery experts at any time.
After looking at the film, Director Shen asked some detailed questions about the patient. Finally, he told Zhou Can that because it involved bone and joint surgery, and he was good at bone trauma, he needed to discuss with other chief physicians in the department before giving an answer.
It may seem like just a hand deformity correction, but it actually involves multiple medical fields.
Skin, fascia, joints, ligaments, and even blood vessels and nerves, this operation is not something that ordinary people can easily perform.
If possible, Zhou Can would naturally be eager to perform the surgery.
Because it benefits him greatly.
Independently conducting such a difficult corrective surgery can help him gain a deeper understanding of skin, fascia, joints, ligaments and other tissues, and his comprehensive surgical ability will also be greatly improved.
…
In the afternoon, Zhou Can continued to see patients without mentioning anything else.
Benefiting from the powerful publicity effect of television news, there is an endless stream of patients seeking his treatment.
However, most of the patients were children, and most of them had broken hands or sprained feet , which made Zhou Can laugh and cry. He had never worked in pediatrics since his internship and regular training.
Now he has become a 'pediatric expert', life is so helpless.
It's like studying science in school, but after graduation, the jobs you find are mainly in the humanities. It's not related to the major you studied in school. There's nothing you can do about it. In order to survive, you can only grit your teeth and study hard to adapt quickly.
The patients were so enthusiastic that they brought their beloved sons, daughters, or grandchildren to see Zhou Can. Zhou Can had no other choice but to warmly receive them.
Fortunately, he had spent more than a year catching up on his medical knowledge, and with his extensive surgical clinical experience, he was able to cope with it.
When he encounters a case that is difficult to diagnose, he does not try to be tough.
When it is necessary to consult other experts, he will do so without hesitation.
He worked until the evening when he got off work and his voice was hoarse. Except for a break of less than an hour for lunch, he was almost always seeing all kinds of patients.
I treated six or seven patients just by using manual repositioning and bone setting techniques.
"Doctor Zhou, do you know how many patients you have treated today?"
Ji You looked at him with a smile on his face.
"How many?"
Zhou Can really hasn't counted them.
Mainly because he was too busy, his mind and attention were all focused on the diagnosis and treatment of patients.
He had no time to care about other unimportant things.
"We received a total of 31 patients! A total of 27 were treated on the spot. Two could not be diagnosed and were referred to Director Dai. One was initially diagnosed with acute leukemia, and the family was devastated and left with their child. Another patient needed a consultation and discussion, and the family was contacted by phone."
This achievement is quite amazing.
On the fifth day of Zhou Can's consultation, he delivered a satisfactory answer.
He also once again showed everyone his enviable strength.
Du Leng, who had been far ahead of Zhou Can a few days ago, was left far behind by Zhou Can today.
Du Leng's total number of patients was only 17, which was nearly doubled by Zhou Can.
People are like this, they never know how wonderful tomorrow will be.
Zhou Can has achieved such a dazzling result in his clinic, and his overall status will be greatly improved. First of all, it must be the accumulation of fame. Some of the patients he cured will do free publicity for him and become his "fans".
In addition, the diagnostic and treatment abilities he demonstrated were enough to allow him to firmly maintain his position as an 'expert'.
The accumulated experience in the process of seeing patients and the improvement of medical skills will make him stronger and stronger.
Therefore, after opening up the situation, he entered a virtuous circle.
After dinner in the evening, everyone summarized the difficult cases and discussed them together.
Zhou Can also took the opportunity to ask how to deal with the patient with deformed hands?
The orthopedic surgery department of Tuya Hospital has given him a clear answer that the patient's surgery can be performed, but it needs to be done at Tuya.
Xinxiang Maternal and Child Health Hospital has a special pediatric orthopedics department, and Chief Tang invited the chief physician of the orthopedics department to discuss the matter.
As a result, the chief physician of the pediatric orthopedics department looked at the patient's films and understood the situation, then remained silent.
This was also within Zhou Can's expectations.
The patient's corrective surgery was far from easy and involved multiple areas of surgery.
It is a great test of the surgeon's overall level.
The surgical capabilities of Xinxiang Women and Children's Hospital have always been ranked relatively low, and it is very likely that it does not have the capabilities to perform such an operation.
This can be seen from the fact that the lung cancer patient had to ask a doctor from Tuya Hospital to help with the surgery, which shows that its surgical capabilities are not very good.
Admittedly, there are some philosophical reasons for this.
First of all, the lung cancer patient we discussed yesterday needed to undergo laparoscopic surgery, which is indeed much more difficult than traditional surgery.
Secondly, many chief physicians of Xinxiang Maternity and Child Health Hospital went abroad for further studies at the same time, resulting in a lack of cutting-edge talent in many departments.
These reasons combined resulted in Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital being unable to complete this difficult operation.
When Chief Tang saw that the chief physician of the pediatric orthopedics department did not say anything, he suddenly became anxious.
"Director Zhang, can this patient undergo corrective surgery? Please tell me!"
Zhou Can has already made it clear that he has asked the orthopedic surgery department of Tuya Hospital about this case and they say it can be treated.
If Xinxiang Maternity and Child Health Hospital cannot do it, I'm afraid we will have to give it up to someone else.
"The child is almost six years old, and it is very difficult to correct it!" Director Zhang is a middle-aged . He is short in stature, has a Mediterranean hairstyle with severe hair loss, and a pointed nose. He looks quite festive.
He pushed up his large gold-rimmed glasses and gave a rather euphemistic answer.
This means that this operation cannot be performed.
"It is precisely because of the difficulty that it has great publicity value! Our hospital's pediatric orthopedic surgery department needs a few typical cases like this to enhance its reputation. The team led by Director Zhang has always been excellent. How about taking on this tough task?"
Through this reception of the expert team from Tuya Hospital, Section Chief Tang's status in the hospital has obviously improved a lot.
Judging from the tone of his voice and the confidence he exudes, you can tell that he has become Dean Tian’s spokesperson in many cases.
Without the respect and trust of Dean Tian, he would definitely not be the one who came forward to dig out Zhou Can that night.
In fact, his various coordination in the expert consultation activities and the easy mobilization of various departments and medical resources of Xinxiang Women and Children's Hospital are enough to show that he has achieved a leap in status through this opportunity.
"Well...you can try!"
Director Zhang was worried in his heart, but he agreed tactfully, but it was obvious that he lacked confidence.
"Okay then, it's settled."
Chief Tang was waiting for this sentence, no matter if you agreed half-heartedly or readily. As long as you agreed, you would have to bite this "hard bone" first.
If they don't agree, Zhou Can will definitely suggest sending the patient to Tuya Hospital.
"Doctor Zhou, the follow-up treatment of this patient can be handed over directly to Director Zhang's team. Next time you see such a difficult pediatric orthopedic patient, it will be more efficient if you discuss it directly with Director Zhang. Our Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital will do its best to provide the most powerful logistical support for the experts of Tuya Hospital."
Section Chief Tang coordinated the matter and said something even more firm.
Trying hard to put the burden on Director Zhang.
Director Zhang had a bitter face and an extremely unnatural expression.
Zhou Can seemed to have understood the strategic intention of Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital. After seeing the serious decline in the hospital's diagnosis and treatment business, the senior management of Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital selected several of the most capable doctors and sent them abroad for further studies to help them further improve their abilities. The purpose was to help these top doctors in the hospital reach a higher level.
By then, the famous doctors will become stronger, which will naturally form a siphon effect and restore the reputation of Xinxiang Maternity and Child Health Hospital.
Right now, it is using Tuya Hospital's expert consultation activities to restore its reputation and enhance its influence.
Overall, this strategic framework is very wise.
However, the senior management of Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital did not seem to realize that there were big problems with the hospital's management. The medical staff had a lax attitude and lacked a sense of responsibility, which was a huge flaw.
No amount of famous doctors could change the outcome.
Of course, it is also possible that the senior management of Xinxiang Maternity and Child Health Hospital has realized that there are loopholes in the hospital's management and are trying to correct them step by step.
If we act too hastily, the hospital itself will be in a bad situation and it will easily lead to collective protests from employees.
The dean should step down then.
…
All cases were discussed and the meeting ended.
Zhou Can handed the patient with deformed hands over to Director Zhang, but he was still somewhat worried.
After all, he is the attending doctor and the family members come to see the doctor because of his reputation.
If Director Zhang messes up, Zhou Can's reputation will be ruined.
Besides, the family was already broken, and I couldn't bear to let it suffer more.
"Director Zhang, when are you going to operate on this patient?"
"Well... the earliest it will take is two days! I have a lot of cases that need urgent surgery on my hands right now." Director Zhang's eyes were evasive.
Who is Zhou Can? He has seen all kinds of people since he was a child under the cultivation of his parents.
Lying and talking nonsense in front of him will never escape his eyes.
He can tell the other person's true intentions just by listening.
"Waiting for two or three days is not a big problem. But if it takes too long, the family may not agree. This family's situation is very difficult, and the family tried every possible way to raise the 70,000 yuan surgery fee. I am very worried that if it takes too long, the family will lose trust in us and turn to other hospitals for treatment."
It was impossible for Zhou Can to persuade Director Zhang directly.
It's a question of proportion.
The two were not doctors from the same hospital, and Director Zhang's rank was much higher than his.
From any angle, it was inappropriate for him to directly tell Dr. Zhang how to treat the patient.
The best way is this, to persuade from the side.
Tell the other party, if you procrastinate and leave the patient there, and they go to another hospital for treatment, don't blame me for not reminding you.
"I'll arrange it as soon as possible, don't worry!"
Director Zhang responded perfunctorily.
Judging from Director Zhang's perfunctory attitude, he probably wants to drag the patient down until he loses patience and goes to other hospitals for treatment.
Because Director Zhang had no choice but to agree to take over this difficult operation.
After taking it, he felt completely unsure.
The best way is to push the patient to other hospitals. And he can't do it openly, otherwise the hospital's top management will be dissatisfied with him.
When Section Chief Tang next to him heard Director Zhang's tone, he immediately became unhappy.
He took over the conversation and made the decision on behalf of Director Zhang, "Director Zhang, I think this patient's life story is very pitiful. The family has done their best to raise money for the child's treatment. We can't let the family down. It's best to arrange the surgery within these two days. There's no time to delay."
"this……"
Director Zhang can talk nonsense in front of Zhou Can, but he can't talk nonsense in front of Section Chief Tang.
Because Chief Tang knows everything about pediatric orthopedics.
Section Chief Tang knew better than him whether he really had a backlog of patients who urgently needed surgery.
"It's settled. I will report this to Dean Tian, and have the TV station's reporters do an exclusive interview and follow-up report on the surgery. Then, we'll use this opportunity to promote it vigorously. You see, the effect of the news interview about our hospital was very good yesterday. Today's outpatient volume increased by at least 40%."
“I believe that the Pediatric Orthopedics Department will flourish under your leadership.”
Section Chief Tang put the heavy burden on Director Zhang.
Not only did they bring up Dean Tian behind the scenes to intimidate Director Zhang, they also threatened to invite a TV reporter to do an exclusive interview, which forced Director Zhang to have no way to refuse.
Otherwise, he would be ungrateful and would probably lose his position as the leader of pediatric orthopedics.
"Okay then! My team and I will definitely do our best."
Director Zhang agreed with tears in his eyes.
Zhou Can saw everything and he was very worried about Director Zhang.
"Chief Tang, Director Zhang, I am also the first doctor to see this patient. According to the hospital's responsibility system, whoever sees the patient is responsible. Do you think it would be possible for me to participate in the entire operation?"
He deliberately added the word "whole process".
This is very different from participating in surgery.
Participate in the entire operation, including the formulation of the surgical plan and the entire surgical cycle.
"no problem!"
Section Chief Tang and Director Zhang agreed to this in unison.
"Dr. Zhou is so responsible to his patients. I admire you. You showed me the care that only doctors can show to their patients. I admire you."
Section Chief Tang was still determined to dig him out, so he gave him a thumbs up and praised him lavishly.
Zhou Can didn't respond much, just said a few humble words, and hurriedly followed Director Zhang and others back to the hotel to rest.
When I returned to the hotel, my girlfriend Su Qianqian called me.
She usually sends messages, and calls are usually to discuss important matters.
Zhou Can has been on a business trip to Xinxiang Women's and Children's Hospital for five days. During these days, he has only had a few brief chats with her on WeChat.
He walked out of the room with his cell phone and went to the end of the hotel corridor.
Because Deputy Director Shi was also staying in the hotel room.
Private matters must be kept secret from the other person.
"Qianqian, where are you?"
"I'm at the company! You've been away on business for so many days, are you used to living here?"
"It's no use not getting used to it. Fortunately, there are only two days left before it ends. I gained a lot from participating in the expert consultation this time."
"Well, that's great! I saw you on TV, that's great! If you need anything, I have a pretty good fan base now, so I can promote you."
She is quite well-informed.
I found out about Zhou Can appearing on TV news so quickly.
The news was broadcast yesterday, and if it wasn't replayed, it would have been broadcast at around 11:00 p.m., which is a low rating. By this time, most people had already turned off the TV and gone to bed.
Su Qianqian is so busy, it’s really surprising that she got the news so quickly.
"No, no, please don't promote me now. At least wait until I complete my internal medicine training and return to the emergency department to achieve some results. Only then can we promote me. I don't have enough strength now, and too much fame would be a disaster."
There is a discrepancy between fame and strength, and it is easy to fall.
And the kind that is disgraced.
