Chapter 748: Chapter 304: To Each Their Own, The First Step of a Prominent Doctor Begins_2
Hospitals will first and foremost do their best to prevent such incidents from happening.
In addition, experts not only see patients and perform surgeries, but they often bear research and teaching responsibilities as well. They are incredibly busy.
Therefore, virtually all experts adopt a limited number of appointments, usually sitting in consultation for a minimum of half a day per week, which has almost become the standard among top specialists.
Seeing fewer patients can minimize the probability of misdiagnosis to the greatest extent.
Director Zhang Bihua, at most, probably only sees about 30 patients a day.
Looking at that long queue, one can only say that the patients are too enthusiastic.
Du Leng’s real capabilities aren’t much, but still, more than ten patients are lined up in front of his consultation table, which is really enviable.
Zhou Can then looked at his own consultation table, describing it as tragic with just one word.
Completely empty, there wasn’t even a single patient seeking consultation.
Deputy Director Shi’s situation today was also considered okay, with five patients lining up in front of his consultation table.
Du Leng glanced at Zhou Can, a slight smirk curling up his lips, wearing a hint of a triumphant smile.
However, since he was on the losing end of a verbal spar with Zhou Can yesterday, he considered himself slightly at a disadvantage, so he learned his lesson today. He stayed silent, only mocking Zhou Can with his gaze.
“Dr. Zhou, how about I go be a guidance nurse!”
Ji You saw Zhou Can sitting there, utterly devoid of patients, and felt very distressed about his plight.
She wanted to proactively help him think of a solution.
“There’s no need for that, we’ll be going back after three more days of consultation anyway. Realizing my own deficiencies and always staying alert might not be a bad thing after all.”
Zhou Can understood her intention.
By being a guidance nurse, whenever a patient asked her about registration matters, she would strongly recommend Zhou Can.
However, Zhou Can had his own pride; he did not want to rely on a woman to draw patients.
Call him old-fashioned or stubborn, he just could not accept it.
To each their own.
Some people would rather starve than take handouts.
This experience at Xinxiang Women and Children’s Hospital will forever be ingrained in his memory. No matter how much success he achieves in the future, he wouldn’t become arrogant and would always remain vigilant.
For him, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
“Hello!”
Female reporter Mu Qin today dressed in a white short coat, light blue jeans, pink lace jacket, complemented with her naturally foxy face, would make any man take notice immediately.
“I already told you, I don’t accept interviews, I don’t accept them, understand?” Zhou Can was already irritated inside, and this female reporter coming to bother him again naturally did not elicit a pleasant response from him.
“Hmph, you’re like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not recognizing a good person’s heart. Someone came specially to tell you some good news, yet you put on such a cold face that could drop icicles. Is this how you usually treat ladies?”
Mu Qin snorted delicately, but there wasn’t much embarrassment on her face.
She knew Zhou Can’s temper, so she wasn’t very bothered by it.
Moreover, as a reporter, she had encountered many interviewees with even worse temperaments than Zhou Can.
Zhou Can was already being quite polite to her.
Of course, far from being gentlemanly.
“The best news is that you won’t interview me,” Zhou Can continued to rebuff her.
Cherishing the fragrant and cherishing jade did not seem to apply in his principles at all.
“You, you, you… you’re intentionally angering me, right? OK, I’m leaving!”
She was, after all, a TV station reporter, naturally beautiful, considered both intelligent and attractive.
There were many successful young men pursuing her.
She had never encountered a man like Zhou Can.
Even if you are indifferent to women, and more Liu Xiahui than Liu Xiahui himself, you should at least show some respect to a young and beautiful lady! Her job is being a reporter, interviewing people or matters she believes have news value; it’s her duty.
Watching Mu Qin walk away fuming, Zhou Can had no intention of chasing after her to apologize.
On the contrary, he felt relieved to have finally driven this female reporter away, hoping she wouldn’t bother him in the future.
Ji You whispered, “You are quite harsh on that female reporter!”
If it wasn’t for spending a few days with Zhou Can and knowing he was a kind-hearted, upright good man, she would think Zhou Can was a rigidly straightforward man.
Such a beautiful female reporter, and he bluntly chased her away.
“If I weren’t firm and tough, she would keep bothering me endlessly.”
Zhou Can was very clear-hearted inside, with an acute understanding of human nature.
As time gradually passed, the outpatient hall became even busier. New patients continued to flood in.
The number of outpatient visits could reach two to three hundred.
Although these patients might not necessarily all be coming for the specialist outpatient services, compared to the first day’s desolation, today’s outpatient services obviously improved.
At this moment, the outpatient hall’s advertising screen suddenly switched to the live broadcast from the television station.
“We now present a piece of news from the medical industry. Tu Ya Hospital, in response to the call from superior authorities and to promote the development of medical civilization, enhancing the quality of medical services for residents, has dispatched a team of twenty-seven expert physicians to Xinxiang Women and Children’s Hospital to conduct a free consultation event…”
Medical news reports generally come in two kinds.
Either it’s negative news, due to a doctor or nurse’s negligence resulting in a patient’s death, overtreatment, or doctors taking kickbacks for prescribing drugs. There’s also news regarding fraudulent hospitals conducting illegal medical activities, tricking patients who aren’t sick into getting examinations and then claiming they are ill, up-charging suddenly during surgery, and so on.
The other kind is positive news like what is being reported now, responding to the call of the country or related departments to improve medical quality, reducing medical treatment costs for the public.
