My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

The tree that stands out in the forest is the one most likely to be blown down.

He was downhearted because his excellence had led to this disaster.

Director Xie suppressed him, probably because he was worried Zhou Can would learn too much in surgery and become a major player in the Emergency Department.

It had nothing to do with personal grudges.

It was simply a matter of departmental interests and competition.

For now, he could only take one step at a time.

The next day, Zhou Can went to work at the orthopedic department of the hospital as usual.

He turned on the computer to check the surgical cases of his group.

"Login failed!"

A four-character dialog box popped up.

He thought he had entered the wrong password or identity information and tried again, but the result was the same.

"Director Xie moves fast!"

Zhou Can immediately understood what had happened.

Since he could no longer check the cases of his group, he could only pick up the surgical records and case histories he had written before.

These were his own things, available for him to look at anytime.

No permission needed.

"Dr. Zhou, you're here early!"

Doctor He must have been on night duty yesterday, his hair disheveled and with dark circles under his eyes.

"Morning!"

Zhou Can forced a smile.

The other doctors in the group arrived one after another, including Doctor Shan.

Their attitude towards Zhou Can was the same as before, with no change.

This suggested they were of lower rank and unaware of what had happened.

After experiencing the fickleness of colleagues in the Emergency Department, Zhou Can didn't believe these colleagues would firmly stand by his side and confront the superiors.

When the time came, they would all avoid him like avoiding the plague.

This is the reality.

"Hey, Dr. Zhou, how come you're not checking the cases in our group today?"

Doctor Shan had been working with him for over two months and had come to depend greatly on this capable assistant.

Take the thief yesterday, only Zhou Can could have detected the issue.

"My... login permissions must have been revoked."

Zhou Can said bitterly.

"Revoked? That shouldn't be, there are still sixteen days left in your orthopedic training period, I'll ask for you."

Doctor Shan thought it unlikely.

He was ready to call the information department right away.

But then he checked the time, and it was only 7:35 am, they definitely hadn't started work yet.

"Don't worry, when the information management department starts work, I'll ask for you. For now, use my computer to check out today's surgical cases. There's one that requires separation of nerves before osteosynthesis, and I'll assign you to handle the nerve separation."

Ever since Zhou Can had skillfully performed that blood vessel separation.

She always assigned Zhou Can to handle more complex tissue separations and free dissections during surgery.

Zhou Can had always performed excellently without any mistakes.

This made Doctor Shan value and trust him even more.

Around eight o'clock, Doctor Yang entered the office.

"Doctor Shan, there's something I need to discuss with you. Your trainee, Zhou Can, might need to be transferred to the outpatient department for training."

Doctor Yang spoke very diplomatically.

Sure enough, what was to come had come.

Fortunately, Zhou Can had already learned almost all he needed to know about orthopedic surgery and the complete perioperative management of patients in the orthopedics department.

He was far from expert, but his foundation was solid.

"Why is that?"

Doctor Shan was extremely surprised by this decision.

"This is a departmental arrangement. Dr. Zhou will need to return to work in the Emergency Department in the future, so his training is mainly to prepare him for work in that department."

Doctor Yang's words were very clear.

As decisions made by the department heads, they had no right to question, only to comply.

"Wait a minute, I'll call my teacher about this."

Director Shan clearly didn't want to let Zhou Can be transferred.

What could a trainee learn in the outpatient department?

Without a practicing physician's license, Zhou Can wouldn't even qualify to shadow doctors in the outpatient department. He could only work as a guided receptionist or errand runner.

This arrangement was clearly targeted at Zhou Can.

Doctor Shan's first thought was that someone was jealous of Zhou Can's capabilities and was intentionally sabotaging him.

Her teacher was no pushover.

Even the other senior physicians in the same department, including the head of orthopedics, had to give some respect to her teacher.

"Doctor Shan, even if you talk to Director Shen, it won't help. You should just comply with the department's arrangement."

Doctor Yang's gaze flickered.

"What do you mean?"

Doctor Shan was not naive, nor foolish. She was aware of various insides and unspoken rules within the hospital.

"This matter might be out of even our Director You of orthopedics or Director Shen's hands. Better not trouble Director Shen."

He spoke with a very certain tone.

At this point, the other doctors present began to understand a bit.

Linking Zhou Can's suddenly revoked login permissions to the new orders for him to work in the outpatient department, it seemed that Zhou Can had offended some influential figures.

In the entire surgery department, there were very few with higher status than Directors You and Shen of orthopedics.

Zhou Can must have offended a major figure in surgery.

"Doctor Shan, thank you for your care and nurturing during this period. 'As the green mountains remain unchanged, and the clear water flows long, we shall meet again.' I regret that I cannot join you in today's nerve-separation surgery."

After Zhou Can got home yesterday, he thought it through all night.

He had considered various possible outcomes.

The current result was not yet the worst.

Doctor Shan was just a physician; he didn't want her to be labeled poorly by Director Xie because of this.

Her ability was limited; she could not change anything.
