Chapter 342 - 181: Another Merit, Surgery Invitation
Two nights ago, Professor Wu was willing to wait for him at the clinic and seemed eager to mend his relationship with Li Jingsheng.
It shouldn’t have come to this.
Of course, the best way is to become stronger. As long as Li Jingsheng performs outstandingly at the Second Hospital, Professor Wu will naturally weigh the consequences of offending him.
Unless he’s an insatiable pervert, he’d definitely dispel any improper thoughts about Ou Qinglan.
From that night at the drinking party, when Li Jingsheng took Ou Qinglan away, Professor Wu appeared very calm and rational, indicating he is a rational old rogue.
He shouldn’t do anything too costly.
Li Jingsheng and Ou Qinglan headed to the consultation room together. Possibly considering the implications, or perhaps because the girl was shy, she walked in front.
Dared not walk side by side with Li Jingsheng.
Even so, it still drew peculiar gazes and ambiguous smiles from the nurse sisters.
It’s not at all unusual for young male and female doctors and nurses to date.
It’s just that as colleagues, a bit of teasing is inevitable.
When the two finally get together, everyone would offer their blessings.
Whether doctors or nurses, they are all in very hard and dull professions. Occasionally finding some fun, these are rare moments of joy for everyone.
Ou Qinglan, being shy, couldn’t withstand the peculiar gazes from the nurses and quickened her pace into the consultation room.
Li Jingsheng, however, didn’t care at all.
Having run his clinic for nearly a year, his skin had thickened, matured significantly, and he didn’t care how others saw him.
As long as he was doing well himself, that was enough.
Upon entering the orthopedic consultation room, Professor Wu was already seated at the main seat.
Ruan Xiaoqin and two other doctors were also present.
Ou Qinglan sat demurely at the last seat.
There were also three interns or resident trainees sitting there, all very young.
The second team is quite weak. Under Professor Wu, the strongest might only be Ruan Xiaoqin, the attending physician.
Among the rest, the third strongest is Dr. Qin, infinitely close to attending level strength.
The others are basically just minor players.
This indicates that the second group in orthopedics is quite weak, understaffed, lacking in mid-to-senior doctors.
If the other groups in orthopedics are in similar situations, it suggests the overall strength of the orthopedic department at the Second Hospital isn’t that impressive.
Many of those present had met before.
At that night’s party, all these people were present.
The number wasn’t small, adding up to eight.
Just lacking any impressive experts.
Li Jingsheng thought that the diagnostic level of the orthopedics department was only at a senior resident level and that he wouldn’t be ranked in the second group.
He chuckled, realizing now that placing fourth wouldn’t be an issue.
If his orthopedic diagnostics could rise another level to proficiency, he’d immediately place in the top three.
The woman rescued the day before yesterday, her leg wound sewing was subpar, now it’s not hard to understand.
"Professor Wu, since I have nothing else going on anyway, can I come in and learn a bit?"
"Welcome!"
Professor Wu mustered a slight smile for Li Jingsheng.
Li Jingsheng, unceremoniously, sat down next to Ou Qinglan.
Professor Wu on the stage twitched his face twice, then lowered his head to look at the materials.
He said nothing.
Compared to how he treated them the day before yesterday, it was as if he’d become a different person.
This is the benefit of showcasing one’s strength.
Upon seeing Li Jingsheng’s strong potential, Professor Wu changed his attitude towards him.
"Sorry, I’m late!"
Dr. Qin hurried in.
He then sat down in an empty seat next to Ruan Xiaoqin.
He’s the number three figure in the second group, you can tell from the seat arrangement.
Seeing Li Jingsheng also in the consultation room, and sitting with Ou Qinglan, his face was full of gloom.
"Everyone’s here, let’s begin! The first case for discussion, the patient had an open reduction, internal fixation with plates and screws, and a ulnar head graft surgery at our hospital more than a year ago. They now cannot rotate their right hand, can’t fully extend their palm with force, and experience severe pain..."
Professor Wu began playing a PowerPoint presentation.
"Dr. Ruan, you were in charge of this patient, do you have any good surgical plans and suggestions?"
"I’ve already handed it over to Dr. Ou to let her gain some clinical diagnostic and treatment experience. Dr. Ou, share your thoughts."
Ruan Xiaoqin was too sly.
The case she couldn’t manage herself, she pushed onto a junior doctor.
"Dr. Ou has already passed her medical licensing exam. Although she is still in the training period and hasn’t graduated with her master’s yet, she is about to graduate. She will soon be a formal resident in our orthopedics department, so it’s important to train her clinical diagnostic and treatment abilities."
So she hasn’t graduated yet, no wonder she couldn’t refuse Professor Wu’s coercion to join the party that night.
Master’s in medical research, if it’s a practice-oriented program, they graduate with all four major qualifications bundled, allowing them to directly apply for positions.
Unless entering major tertiary hospitals like People’s Hospital or Qiaobang Hospital, which might require an additional one to three years of training, they’re generally allowed to start work upon passing training. At more average tertiary hospitals, one can typically apply upon graduation.
Ou Qinglan stood up, somewhat nervous, "I...only have some very basic plans. Currently, the patient’s condition is caused by bone growth increase, and surgery might be the only solution."
What she said was basically equivalent to saying nothing.
Professor Wu, expressionless, slightly shook his head.
"You may sit down!"
Clearly, Ou Qinglan’s answer did not satisfy him.
He turned his gaze to Ruan Xiaoqin and Dr. Qin, his only two reliable aides.
"Dr. Qin, you’ve also studied this case for a long time, share your thoughts first."
