Chapter 94 A new assistant doctor
Bian Mu's qualifications are still shallow, and the office of "Huikang" Hospital has never assigned him an assistant physician. If he is both an outpatient and an inpatient, Bian Mu simply cannot cope with the time and energy alone.
Therefore, Bian Mu has always insisted on only going to outpatient clinics. When he encounters patients who need to be hospitalized, he usually refers them to other colleagues. When he encounters patients with particularly complicated conditions, he will tell the truth and recommend them to a higher-level hospital to find another famous doctor. .
In recent times, as Bian Mu's fame has grown, the number of patients on his hands has increased dramatically, and the number of patients requesting hospitalization under his name has also gradually increased.
The hospital office began to consider equipping Bian Mu with an assistant doctor. In their opinion, this might help Bian Mu grow rapidly.
That afternoon, at around four o'clock, Bian Mu was giving an injection to an old man, when Qian Xiaotong opened the door and walked in softly.
After getting the needle, Bian Mu gave the old man a few words, turned around, waved to Qian Xiaotong, and invited him to the end of the corridor to chat for a few words.
"The hospital office plans to assign you an assistant doctor to help you take care of the chores in the inpatient department. What do you think?"
"Of course I object! I've only been here a few days, and I've already been equipped with assistant doctors. How can my colleagues talk about me behind my back? Besides, my brother, let me say something selfish, and I can't cope with it mentally. But come on! If you make a mistake while busy, your bad reputation will be small. If you delay the patient's condition, it's not a sin! There will be retribution in the future." Bian Mu firmly disagreed to assign himself an assistant doctor.
"You keep running to the emergency department at night, and others think you have too much energy!" Qian Xiaotong said with a smile.
"Isn't that to learn more! Don't you understand when others are pretending to be confused? In terms of first aid, those of us who learn Chinese medicine are not as fast as Western medicine! I can't continue to study!"
"Haha... your way of thinking is really alternative. There are so many Chinese medicine doctors in the country, but there are not many like you, right?"
"That's not necessarily the case! It's just a coincidence! They didn't notify me directly. That's to give you face and explain to them for me. I've been in our hospital for too short a time, and I haven't even met all my colleagues. What's going on in the inpatient department? Let’s talk about it later!” Bian Mu said with a smile.
"They have another meaning, you should think about it." Qian Xiaotong added with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Bian Mu asked.
"There is a director named Wu on the hospital board of directors. He is not from the medical circle. However, this person holds a large share of the shares and has the right to speak. He has a niece who graduated more than a year ago. She is also studying Chinese medicine and has mediocre abilities. Quite right, you are currently working at the Provincial Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and the director found out about you from somewhere, so he wanted to arrange for his niece to study with you and be your assistant in name."
"Ah?! Studying with the princess?"
"That's pretty much what it means."
"Spare me! Let me treat people with peace of mind. Don't talk about such trivial matters. If it's not embarrassing, just help me push it!"
"That's not possible! This director is extremely wealthy and usually doesn't care about the hospital's affairs. He arranged such a small matter out of the blue. If you think about it from his perspective, who among the higher-ups in the hospital would refuse?!"
"Then... you're so smart, why don't you adapt!" Bian Mu begged with a smile.
"Adaptation? How to adapt? Just say that you are under increasing pressure to receive medical treatment. Please ask the hospital to add a colleague to you?"
"Okay! Each has its own pulse, and each treats its own person."
"That's against the rules! There is no precedent. Either she will open a new clinic and be the master of her own business, or she can only condescend to be an assistant for others. The same clinic cannot accommodate two prescriptions at the same time." Qian Xiaotong explained.
"That's it... no wonder Ouyang Ziye made such a big deal at the beginning, so let's be an assistant doctor! However, we won't treat inpatients for the time being. The reason is very simple. I need to get familiar with the humanistic environment of the inpatient department."
"Okay! No problem! How many beds will be reserved for you?"
"5?"
"The inpatient department of our hospital is much larger than you think, so reserve 10 beds first! Inpatients are easy to take care of, but you are too serious and increase the workload all of a sudden. Sometimes , no matter how conscientious a doctor is, he has to learn to be lazy, otherwise, he will just wait until he is overworked!" Qian Xiaotong gave some kind words of advice.
"Maybe I'm too coquettish. Then there's a resident doctor to help me! Oh! Let her do it!" Bian Mu replied helplessly.
"That's right! Just do as the Romans do! You'll get used to it slowly. You should be busy first, I'll be back!" After that, Qian Xiaotong turned around and left.
…
Dr. Wu came to work early the next morning. He was in his 20s, tall, with pretty features, lively eyes and eloquence. He didn't look like a medical student.
To be honest, Bian Mu was really frightened by this appearance, this temperament, and that kind of family background.
To show their solemnity, the person in charge of the hospital office and the clerk specially accompanied him here. Several people were chatting there, and Executive Vice President Cui Jingsheng hurried over to give Dr. Wu a personal compliment.
"Xiao Bian! Doctor Wu is one of his own, so he still needs to talk about everything he knows about business matters!" Okay! Vice President Cui was straight to the point. As soon as they met, he reminded Bian Mu that Dr. Wu was here to get the truth, so don't mess around.
"I have little talent and little knowledge. Let's learn from each other and promote each other!" Bian Mu responded politely.
"As far as medical skills are concerned, here you have a new approach and a school of your own. Dr. Wu is also a talented student from a prestigious university. It would be better for you two to communicate more and not be too conservative." Vice President Cui hinted again.
Bian Mu didn't know how to answer this question, so he could only nodded politely and said nothing more.
A few people pretended to be walking around in the clinic. The person in charge of the hospital office temporarily arranged for a few people to replace all the facilities in the clinic with brand new ones.
It was obvious that he was acting, and Bian Mu felt a little uncomfortable when he saw it.
They kept talking and laughing until 8:30, when Vice President Cui and others left.
Fortunately, Dr. Wu was very measured and helped Bian Mu start seeing patients with a calm expression.
As a result, the initial diagnosis and screening procedures at Nurse Xiao Sun's side were naturally canceled and all were handed over to Dr. Wu.
…
At 11:47 noon, Bian Mu sent the last female patient out the door, turned around and greeted Dr. Wu and the three ladies to get off work.
Nurse Lin was very sensible and didn't say much. She quietly invited Xiao Sun to go to the cafeteria for dinner.
Dr. Wu recorded many questions on her personal laptop, and while she was just getting off work, she politely asked Bian Mu for advice for a long time.
Bian Mu patiently answered them one by one.
There were some things that Dr. Wu understood immediately, and there were some things that Bian Mu had explained several times, but she still seemed to understand.
"Doctor Bian! These knowledge points don't seem to belong to the academic knowledge system, do they?"
"Yes, I am a very complex person, so I should try my best to integrate them all!"
"Really? Have you ever become a disciple?"
"No!"
"Then... think it over for yourself and then use it on patients. Is this standard?"
As soon as these words came out, Bian Mu was completely confused.
To be honest, Bian Mu really hasn't thought about this question seriously.
