Chapter 1000: Got Bitten

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Doctor Ling, I admit that your surgery skill is extremely good. However, normal doctors like us also want to improve ourselves and perform high-end surgeries. In this sort of situation, it is unavoidable for us to use t.i.tanium clips.” Another attending physician from the provincial hospital stood up and did not care if he got scolded anymore.

When the department directors dealt with the young doctors, particularly attending physicians and resident doctors, they had the absolute power to dictate their lives. If the doctors refused to listen to the department director’s instructions, they would not be fired but would have to stay in utter misery. Some department directors could even make the doctors be unable to resign normally.

So, when the attending physicians at the back saw that their colleagues were in trouble, they would still help them.

Ling Ran smiled when he heard what the others said. When he was about to say something, he saw that the people in the front had started to shout in anger.

“You’re just spewing c.r.a.p, right? If you want to earn money, just say it. Why bother saying that you want to improve?”

When the host heard the word “c.r.a.p” and saw that the speaker was someone in the front row, he immediately took the microphone and said, “Doctor, we’re holding a civilized discussion here. Do you mind introducing yourself first?”

“I’m a.s.sociate Chief Physician Guo Liqing from the Department of Urology of Yun Hua Hospital. In our department, c.r.a.p is not considered as a dirty word,” Guo Liqing replied in a casual way, and laughter could be heard.

The attending physician who got scolded just now stood still in a dumbfounded manner. He had forced himself to ask that question just now, anyway, and now, he did not have the courage to fight back.

Guo Liqing smiled at Ling Ran and said, “Doctor Ling, I can’t hold it anymore. Can I reply with a few words?”

“Okay.” Ling Ran did not mind.

Guo Liqing smiled, took the microphone, turned around, and looked at the attending physician who was standing over there. He said, “I think your question can be separated into two parts.”

The attending physician who stood at the corner looked at Guo Liqing with an expression that said he would still be a pa.s.sive person even after thirty-four years.

Guo Liqing said mockingly, “The first part would be your point about normal doctors wanting to become better and perform high-end surgery. I believe that there are not many high-end surgeries available, and honestly, there are plenty of normal doctors who want to perform high-end surgeries. So, is everyone supposed to be able to perform high-end surgeries at the end?”

Guo Liqing spoke with a grave voice, “Why is it that there are one to three people in every department who are able to perform high-end surgeries at the end? It’s because there are limited medical resources. Not only is the number of patients limited, but there is another important problem—the hospitals cannot be in charge of a large number of major surgeries, and they cannot put in that much preparation and postoperative work for major operations. Without this basis, what’s the point in you performing high-end surgeries? And since we have this requirement floating around before we can perform high-end surgeries, what’s the point in it even if you want to perform a high-end surgery?

“In the end, doctors and hospitals work in a compet.i.tive environment, and they also operate on a selection system. Only the good hospitals or hospitals that can afford major surgeries will be outstanding. Good doctors and those doctors who learn fast will excel as well. For normal doctors, I suggest that they perform normal surgeries and treat normal diseases. Don’t use the patients’ lives to practice your skills. Just treat this as acc.u.mulating some good karma.”

Guo Liqing’s tone became stern as he said the last part, and everyone started to discuss this.

No doctor would like Guo Liqing’s speech.

When an industry or organization gathered its force together, it would become a monster. They always had an endless need for resources.

When the young doctors who just joined saw their seniors performing high-end surgeries, they would imagine themselves being able to perform high-end surgeries in the future. But they never thought about how much resources had the hospital brought in in the past when it expanded, and they also never thought about whether the resources in the hospital in the future would multiply as it did in the past during the expansion.

All things would come to an end.

Although Guo Liqing was trying to protect Ling Ran and curry favor to the Emergency Medical Center, the content in his speech was based on his personal feelings as well.

The most promising major surgery in the Department of Urology would be kidney transplantation. But kidney resources were limited. Forget about how the current doctors had a lower chance to grab the opportunity, even in Guo Liqing’s time, he did not manage to get an opportunity like this as well.

Therefore, up to this day, Guo Liqing was never qualified to perform kidney transplantation, and only the luckiest and most talented doctors would have a chance to be involved in kidney transplantation.

Guo Liqing was not satisfied with this for a long time, but later, he accepted this fact.

When Guo Liqing faced the attending physicians at the back row, he still spoke with confidence and acceptance to this fact.

“Let me move to the second point.” Guo Liqing moved the microphone slightly further away from him and raised his voice. “I say, are the brains of the youngsters nowadays and the normal doctors you mentioned filled with cement? You can’t even suture a 0.07-inch blood vessel well and insist on using t.i.tanium clips. Then, why are they doing hepatectomy? Are you insane?”

Guo Liqing’s voice became louder as he spoke. He shouted his subsequent sentences, “When your mother comes over to the hospital for surgery, will you arrange a doctor like that for her?! What is the purpose of such a doctor to perform hepatectomy?! Just to earn the commission of t.i.tanium clips?!”

The meeting room became chaotic.

The doctors and pharmaceutical sales representatives in the room and the normal people who came over to see Ling Ran had taken out their phones when they heard Guo Liqing scolding the attending physician so boldly.

The host could not hold back anymore and immediately stood up to say, “Doctor Ling, can you say something?”

Ling Ran nodded and took the microphone. When he did this movement, his imposing mannerism immediately overwhelmed the others.

“The blood vessels that are above 0.07 inches in the liver should be sutured. This is a simple technical judgment.” Ling Ran looked at the attending physician who was still standing and said, “In hepatectomy, if you can’t suture the blood vessels, you probably can’t handle other parts as well.”

When Ling Ran finished speaking, agreements were heard in the meeting room. Then, those agreements became louder.

“Just do it if you can. If not, just get lost.”

“Many people want to perform hepatectomy. You can’t even suture well, how is it possible for you to handle hepatectomy?”

“Go to the Orthopedics Department if you want to earn money from medical consumables!”

Those who shouted had different mentalities. They could be dissatisfied with Chief Physician Ji or the t.i.tanium clips group, just wanted to express their anger, or just wanted to support Ling Ran.

The current situation could be described as a popular sentiment among the people.

Chief Physician Ji looked at the back with a dark expression, but he did not say anything at the end.

Honestly speaking, he felt a little guilty.

He had been a bit lenient in giving his suggestion about the use of medical consumables such as the t.i.tanium clips.

Nowadays, the indiscriminate use of medical consumables had become a trend. Regardless of whether it was to earn more or to save time, the doctors were now inclined to use t.i.tanium clips and other medical consumables in their surgeries.

Chief Physician Ji was still thinking about trying his best to gather allied forces. Then, through the expert opinion article, he could provide theoretical support for normal doctors, and with the support from the normal doctors, he could have the influence to expand his opinion.

Chief Physician Ji had never thought that he would be questioned on the spot by Ling Ran.

However, it was too late to change now.

Chief Physician Ji frowned. He was just like a leopard who got bitten in its wound. His gaze was fierce, but his body was weak.
