Chapter 2047 The Obvious Advantages of the Numerical Medicine School

Bian Mu carefully reviewed the medical records compiled by the female doctor surnamed Chen. It was obvious that some parts were simply notes for the sake of notes, and no corresponding medical context could be found later. There was neither an overall grasp nor any technical breakthroughs in the local areas.

Frowning, Bian Mu flipped through the book again. Fortunately, this Dr. Chen was at least somewhat disciplined. Whenever she was confident, Dr. Chen would do her best to treat the patient. Moreover, she never added or subtracted medicines arbitrarily when she was unsure. Furthermore, she handled many minor details very carefully. Bian Mu guessed that Dr. Chen was probably a female colleague, and likely belonged to the kind of medical style that sought to avoid mistakes rather than achieve great results.

As she watched, Bian Mu eventually noticed several unpleasant signs.

Seeing Bian Mu's unusual expression, the originally lively atmosphere at the dining table gradually quieted down. Without asking, as one of the top experts in Lijin City, Master Bian must have found a lot of faults.

Apart from Bian Mu, the majority of those present had mediocre medical skills, but they were all formally trained and had almost all worked in regular hospitals for many years. Some left their original units to start their own businesses for one reason, and others left for another. They all had at least some basic medical knowledge. Seeing that Bian Mu's expression was unusual, everyone guessed that the problem revealed in the medical record might be more serious than Dr. Chen had imagined.

Braving the heavy rain, these fellow clinic owners had come all the way to visit him at his clinic, and the time was carefully chosen; they felt they wouldn't have the face to do so at any other time. Bian Mu could read a mixture of fear, anticipation, and a longing for stability in their expressions… in short, their thoughts were quite complex.

The biggest worry in this group is actually similar to that of Sun Zhengting and his group: no one has any confidence in the future!
I'm a little panicked!

In their view, Bian Mu is a kind and virtuous man with superb medical skills, and has always been known as a gentlemanly doctor. He is like a towering tree that grows rapidly. Given the opportunity, people would still like to take shelter from the wind and rain under the "New Concept" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.

Bian Mu even suspected that these fellow TCM practitioners who ran small clinics might actually believe certain rumors that the Cen Family Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic was squeezed out of business by him!
Over this hot pot meal, Bian Mu planned to have an open and honest discussion with everyone. As for whether they could jointly open a "Joint Medical Clinic" in the future, that would be discussed later. Right now, Bian Mu was focused on explaining the potential health risks to the 63-year-old patient.

“Perhaps our usual medical practices are a bit different… I have a feeling that this old man’s future health is not very optimistic!” Bian Mu said to everyone, naturally focusing his gaze on Gu Yuefeng.

"What does the master mean?!" Gu Yuefeng asked, puzzled.

"I'd like to point out three potentially worrying developments. First, this gentleman's energy channels are showing signs of peripheral nerve inflammation. Of course, this is based on the case studies compiled by Dr. Chen, and it seems Dr. Chen has reversed the order of a few points. I don't know if it's a mistake during computer formatting or if the plan itself has some problems. Let's focus on the most important ones first. Second, this gentleman is already showing early signs of diabetic nephropathy, and the direction of his energy channels is very dangerous. Finally, this gentleman may already have a certain degree of diabetic cardiovascular disease, and it's not mild. The problem is, theoretically, these three trends will not occur for more than 24 months. What if these three seemingly minor complications overlap? I believe everyone here can roughly predict the consequences. At that time... Dr. Chen and this old acquaintance... especially the patient's family, will probably have a hard time meeting again..." At the end, worried about startling Dr. Chen, Bian Mu deliberately softened his tone.

The words had barely left his mouth when a commotion arose around the table. People began whispering and discussing amongst themselves…

As a legitimate clinical practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, the female doctor surnamed Chen certainly knew what serious consequences Bian Mu was referring to.

Trend! The business advantages of young traditional Chinese medicine clinic owners have become immediately apparent.

It's not that the other TCM practitioners present couldn't see it at all, but they couldn't draw such a clear conclusion on the spot as Bian Mu. For them, being able to roughly figure out these three development trend lines was already quite remarkable.

Furthermore, there's the superposition! This is a potential medical risk that none of the people present had ever considered! They hadn't even thought about it, and naturally, they had no idea when the three trend lines would officially intersect, thus triggering a more serious, even fatal, diagnosis.

Great!

The position of the head of a traditional Chinese medicine clinic is not one that can be easily attained.

The female doctor surnamed Chen panicked at that moment!
"This...that...Master! What should I do now?! If the family really makes a scene, my clinic will definitely have to close down! At the very least, I'll have to move to another place! My family has been locals for generations, and I really don't know how I'll survive if I move to another place!" By the end, it was as if Bian Mu had already decided the course of the situation, and the female doctor surnamed Chen was clearly frightened.

"Don't rush! Looking at the medical records you brought... Generally speaking, you haven't done anything wrong, so please rest assured! By the way, let me inform everyone that we can observe the trend of the illness and even perform targeted trend calculations. This isn't just a rough estimate; it's a relatively precise calculation using software and various mathematical tools. This is the basic medical principle of our 'Digital Medicine' school. If anyone is truly interested, please feel free to leave a message online at any time, and we can discuss it thoroughly! Getting back to the point, anyone would be flustered in this situation, including me. The best course of action now is to honestly explain things to the patient and suggest that the elderly person go to a reputable tertiary hospital for further examination. As for whether to be so direct, that depends on how well Dr. Chen understands certain aspects of our 'Digital Medicine' school." Bian Mu's words were very skillful, offering advice while subtly promoting the "Digital Medicine" school, and also saving Dr. Chen's face.

"Is it still possible to make it?!" the female doctor surnamed Chen couldn't help but ask.

"It should be possible! However... it will inevitably damage your image, Dr. Chen, to some extent. Therefore... I suggest arranging the follow-up examinations and treatments in a tactful way that you can accept. Your attitude must be clear. Having practiced medicine for many years, I believe Dr. Chen can handle this appropriately. However... similar incidents will likely continue to occur in the future. To put it bluntly, this is the core of everyone's concerns over the past year or so. The AI ​​era is not as simple as creating a few chatbots; it's a generational gap! Seeing that you are all getting on in years, catching up might be difficult. Therefore... I suggest that you all follow my..." "Looking back from the perspective of our 'mathematical medicine' school, our core technological breakthroughs lie in two points. First, we truly and harmoniously apply advanced mathematical tools, represented by higher mathematics, to daily diagnosis and treatment. Second, our school advocates a systematic translation of advanced Western medical concepts. Note that I emphasize system-to-system, not simple analogy. For example, Western medicine has the term 'diabetes,' and we immediately come up with a corresponding term like 'wasting and thirsting disease.' I'm not referring to this simple, mechanical one-to-one mapping. We tried that in the past, and we ended up in a dead end." Bian Mu explained patiently.

Gradually, everyone present became engrossed in listening...
