Come on, Dr. Wu

Chapter 263 Doctor Kang

Jiao Yang was also very happy when he heard Wu Xiaofu's words.

Jiao Yang naturally did not dare to underestimate Wu Xiaofu. The provincial capital could not tell what was wrong with his father, but Wu Xiaofu was a national, or even world-class doctor. Maybe Wu Xiaofu could tell what was wrong.

Looking at Wu Mingjie, he knew what Wu Mingjie was thinking, but since it was related to his grandfather's health, he had to take the bait.

A banquet where both the guest and the host enjoy themselves.

The place where Wu Mingjie lives is much better than Wu Xiaofu's. At night, Wu Mingjie did not let Wu Xiaofu go back, but took Wu Xiaofu back home. His second sister-in-law and the children did not come, so Wu Mingjie lives alone.

"Xiao Fu, I have to thank you today. You should have seen that I am trying to win over Jiao Yang. However, don't make it difficult for me. I will help you when the time comes. If it is easy to cure, I will help you for your second brother's sake. If it is not easy to cure, forget it.

The provincial capital couldn’t find out anything, and they couldn’t say anything. Alas, after this happened, I realized how difficult it was. I’m telling you…”

After coming back, Wu Mingjie started to complain to Wu Xiaofu under the influence of alcohol.

Wu Xiaofu could actually understand Wu Mingjie. Being an official was not any easier than being a doctor. Being a doctor was at least a technical job, but being an official would probably require him to do all kinds of work.

However, Wu Xiaofu's reputation as a psychological master is not for nothing. No matter how upset Wu Mingjie is, he always ends up smiling.

They are all family, so Wu Xiaofu will definitely help if he can. What's more, he is curious about Jiao Yang's father's condition. Besides, this man is an old policeman who has caught countless bad guys in his life. If he can help, he must help.

The next day, Wu Xiaofu entered the hospital again. He had already adapted to the working rhythm of Jinhu County Hospital. In fact, there was no difference, except that his workload seemed to be a little heavier than when he was in the First Affiliated Hospital.

"Boss."

Qu Tianqi saw Wu Xiaofu, greeted him, and began to talk about the patient's condition. Qu Tianqi then followed him, along with two undergraduate residents, who also worked together to cooperate with Wu Xiaofu, forming a team.

Hearing Qu Tianqi's address, the other two doctors were stunned for a moment, and then followed suit and started calling him Boss.

Wu Xiaofu was listening to Qu Tianqi's story and was impressed by his own charm. It had only been two days and Qu Tianqi had risen from Doctor Wu to Director and then to the boss.

As Wu Xiaofu's subordinate doctor, Qu Tianqi naturally has to undertake more medical tasks.

When Wu Xiaofu is not in the hospital, he will have full control over Wu Xiaofu's outpatient and surgical patients. At least when Wu Xiaofu asks, he will be able to answer.

It would be best if Wu Xiaofu could explain some key aspects of the disease in advance without him having to ask anything.

The six patients treated on Tuesday are all doing well now.

There are two cases where the recovery is a bit slow and the albumin level in the blood test is a bit low. We have started using human albumin.

What can I say about this medicine? Its effect in increasing albumin is really obvious.

The only downside is that it is expensive and cannot be reimbursed.

However, if it can be used, it should be used promptly, especially for patients with major surgical trauma. After surgery, they are prone to swelling and poor circulation due to low albumin levels, and in severe cases, they may go into shock. They must be replenished to normal levels as soon as possible.

However, supplementing albumin by food or ordinary medicine alone is too slow.

During the morning meeting, Dou Zhiming talked about the changes in hepatobiliary surgery in the past two days.

To be honest, Dou Zhiming and his colleagues did not have a lot of workload before, after all, there were not many patients. But now it is different. Wu Xiaofu actually filled up the hepatobiliary surgery department. There are fifty beds, and not a single one is vacant.

Not only were there no vacant beds, but some beds were also borrowed from other departments.

Now they have a total of 57 patients in their hepatobiliary surgery department. The doctors and nurses have become very busy all of a sudden. However, being busy has its advantages.

On the one hand, there is an improvement in capabilities and skills, and on the other hand, there is an increase in income.

Especially the latter, medical staff also need to eat.

Before, ordinary doctors in Jinhu County Hospital actually did not have very high incomes. But now, considering the effectiveness of hepatobiliary surgery, they are afraid that their incomes can be increased by at least one or two times.

"Doctor Wu, what are your plans for today?"

"There are several surgeries to be done in the gastrointestinal surgery department. It will probably take until the afternoon. If there is anything in the department, just call me directly and I will deal with it when I have time. Then, if there are surgeries that can be scheduled, we will start scheduling them. We should move faster and not overload the patients."

Dou Zhiming nodded when he heard this. He had heard that Wu Xiaofu had performed surgery in the thyroid and breast surgery department for an entire afternoon yesterday. Without Wu Xiaofu saying anything himself, Fang Ying had already started promoting Wu Xiaofu's abilities in the hospital. Dou Zhiming had heard about it several times that morning.

I know all about general surgery.

"Okay, Doctor Wu, you'll be busy now. I'll call you if there's anything else."

Dou Zhiming also had to arrange Wu Xiaofu's schedule. Most of the 57 patients in the hepatobiliary surgery department were there for Wu Xiaofu, and many of them were seriously ill. If any problem arose, they might not be able to handle it, and Wu Xiaofu had to solve it personally.

Therefore, we must ensure that Wu Xiaofu can be found anytime and anywhere.

Gastrointestinal Surgery.

The director of the gastrointestinal surgery department, like Fang Ying, is a talent recruited from outside. His name is Kang Jinwang, and he is two years older than Fang Ying. In the field of gastrointestinal surgery, he has mastered operations such as subtotal gastrectomy and radical resection of rectal cancer.

This is the person who can be in charge of the gastrointestinal surgery department of Jinhu County Hospital and ensure its stability.

The deepest impression Kang Jinwang left on Wu Xiaofu was his exquisite hair, which looked very stylish as if it had been sprayed with hairspray. Unlike Wu Xiaofu, who was used to having short hair, he only washed it once every two or three days and could hardly find a comb in the bathroom.

It can be seen that this is a meticulous and serious doctor.

"Hello, Doctor Wu. This is the surgery we have scheduled for today. Please take a look."

Compared to Fang Ying's attitude, Kang Jinwang's attitude was calmer. Perhaps due to his personality, Wu Xiaofu didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Not to mention, there were quite a few gastrointestinal surgeries scheduled today.

To date, the number of patients in the gastrointestinal surgery department has reached more than twenty.

Seven or eight of them were patients Wu Xiaofu admitted to the outpatient clinic yesterday, and Kang Jinwang had scheduled a total of nine operations for today.

Four were appendectomies, two were hernias, and then there were three gastrointestinal space-occupying surgeries.

Wu Xiaofu took a quick look and pointed at the three digestive tract space-occupying surgeries and said, "Leave these three to me."

Kang Jinwang's face twitched when he heard that Wu Xiaofu had to undergo three of the most important operations right after he opened his mouth. He admitted that Wu Xiaofu had good skills, but he couldn't deny him any chance. There were three gastrointestinal tract tumors, two of which were gastric cancer and one was colon cancer.

Wu Xiaofu didn't think much about Kang Jinwang's thoughts. He didn't know Kang Jinwang's strength. After all, he hadn't seen Kang Jinwang's surgery yet. However, since he was introduced as a talent, there would be no problem with ordinary hernia and appendectomy.

However, the three patients with gastrointestinal masses all came for him, so he needed to be responsible for them. Even if Kang Jinwang really wanted the surgery, Wu Xiaofu would only give it to him after confirming that he was capable of doing it.

"Okay, let's go into the operating room."

Wu Xiaofu didn't say much, he turned around and walked towards the operating room. The doctors behind Kang Jinwang were all a little stunned, not knowing what to do. They could see that Kang Jinwang seemed to be in a bad mood.

Could it be that Kang Jinwang felt that Wu Xiaofu had stolen his surgery?

Thinking of this, the doctors felt helpless. They were kind of caught in the middle of this situation.

"Director, us?"

call!
Kang Jinwang exhaled, "Xiao Jiang, come with me and be Dr. Wu's assistant."

When it comes to Kang Jinwang's level, he needs to perform a lot of surgeries to improve his proficiency. Kang Jinwang is different from Fang Ying in one aspect, that is, Kang Jinwang only has a bachelor's degree.

After graduating from college, Kang Jinwang did not choose to continue to take the postgraduate entrance examination due to family reasons, but went directly to work. The first step was regular training. Kang Jinwang's academic performance was actually very good. The hospital where he did the regular training was Nandu First People's Hospital.

During the regular training period, he chose the gastrointestinal surgery major because of his good performance. The superior doctor who supervised Kang Jinwang was also very optimistic about Kang Jinwang. However, Kang Jinwang's academic qualifications were too low. At the Nandu First People's Hospital, at least a doctorate degree was required.

When he finished his regular training, the director of the gastrointestinal surgery department of Nandu First People's Hospital gave Kang Jinwang an opportunity and hired him into the department.

However, even so, Kang Jinwang was surprised enough. Although he was just a temporary worker among temporary workers, this was an opportunity, an opportunity that let everyone know that even if he was an undergraduate, he could stay and work in a large hospital.

Kang Jinwang was very grateful to the director for his training. He worked harder and studied more actively. Although he was an undergraduate student, his performance was better than some doctoral students and his surgical skills were also very solid.

However, no matter how well Kang Jinwang performed, there was no further change in the departmental employment contract, and he could not even get the hospital employment contract. It was only at this time that Kang Jinwang realized that without an academic degree, it seemed really difficult to survive and compete in a large hospital.

Seeing that all the new colleagues who were obviously less skilled and capable than him had been given regular positions, while he was still a temporary worker, Kang Jinwang finally couldn't hold on any longer.

There was no other way. Who could tolerate that he obviously contributed more but after receiving his salary, he was not as well paid as a new colleague? Kang Jinwang accepted his fate and eventually left Nandu First People's Hospital.

Even the department director felt very sorry, but academic qualifications are a fatal flaw for a doctor. Even if he really admired Kang Jinwang, there was no way to change anything. After all, although Kang Jinwang's performance was good, it had not yet reached the point where the hospital could change the rules.

Even a master's degree is fine.

Shaking his head, the department director could only be a good person and wrote a letter of recommendation for Kang Jinwang, allowing Kang Jinwang to join the HA City First People's Hospital. This is the best hospital in HA City and the proportion of medical care it undertakes is not weak.

After joining the company, Kang Jinwang wanted to make great achievements and make the Nandu First People's Hospital regret it. His work was indeed getting better and better, and his surgeries were getting better and better. Although he was only an attending physician, his surgeries were better than those of many deputy chief physicians.

However, it was just an operation. Kang Jinwang wanted to do scientific research, write papers, and achieve stunning results. But it was only at this time that Kang Jinwang discovered that academic qualifications really seemed to represent a lot of things.

He lacked the basic knowledge that others learned in three years of master's degree and three years of doctoral degree. When performing surgery, Kang Jinwang did not feel it very obviously, but when doing scientific research and writing articles, he realized how obvious his shortcomings were.

Then comes the promotion of professional titles represented by academic qualifications.

His colleague is obviously younger than him but has been promoted to associate chief physician, while he is still stuck at the position of attending physician. This is because he is an undergraduate and has a longer age restriction. However, his performance is not good enough for his superiors to give him the green light and relax the age restriction.

I finally passed the exam and became an associate chief physician, but when I was hired, I discovered something else.

It turns out that there are still many doctors waiting for appointment. They all hold the title of associate chief physician, do the work of attending physicians, and receive the salary of attending physicians. There are only so many vacancies in the hospital every year, and it is based on a first-come, first-served basis. Even if you want to jump the queue, you have to have something to show for it.

The hospital also knew that Kang Jinwang was a good person, but they ignored the doctors who had passed the associate chief physician examination earlier than him and hired Kang Jinwang. These doctors all had higher academic qualifications than Kang Jinwang. How could they convince the public?

There was no other way but to comfort Kang Jinwang again and again and ask him to wait a while.

It was not until Kang Jinwang faced the reality and experienced half of his life that he realized that he should have pursued a master's degree. If he had done so, perhaps he would have a very different life now.

Not long ago, Jinhu County Hospital found Kang Jinwang and promised that as long as Kang Jinwang went to Jinhu County Hospital, he would not only be directly hired, but also be made the director of the department. Jinhu County Hospital was going to be upgraded to a tertiary hospital, and the hospital also guaranteed that if he could not be promoted within three years, Kang Jinwang would be let go and all the benefits given would not be taken back.

Kang Jinwang was moved by such courtesy.

When he just graduated, Kang Jinwang, who only had an undergraduate degree and a degree certificate, would definitely not agree to work in Jinhu County Hospital, a county-level hospital. But more than ten years later, Kang Jinwang, who was already an associate chief physician with rich work experience, was moved by Jinhu County Hospital.

Even Kang Jinwang was somewhat self-deprecating.

After arriving at Jinhu County Hospital, Kang Jinwang found that the situation here was not that bad. He was worried that there were not many patients and that time would be wasted. However, who would have thought that in just a few days, the number of patients in the gastrointestinal surgery department had reached more than 20, including patients with digestive tract masses.

You know, there are very few patients with gastrointestinal tract masses, even in the First People's Hospital of HA City.

Here, he doesn't seem to have to worry about falling behind in skills.

Moreover, the situation seems to be getting better and better.

However, he discovered later that these patients seemed to be coming for Wu Xiaofu. As for Wu Xiaofu, he certainly knew the news that Wu Xiaofu came to Jinhu County Hospital to work in the countryside.

To be honest, when Kang Jinwang was young, he didn't feel jealous at all.

But Kang Jinwang, who was already an associate chief physician, couldn't help but feel jealous after hearing the news about Wu Xiaofu.

Wu Xiaofu, who only graduated with a master's degree from an ordinary university, was able to get a position at Donghai Medical University. This is even more fantastic than his getting a position at Nandu First People's Hospital. Well, he never got a position from the beginning to the end.

And this mysterious person later created a series of mysterious stories.

Why is Wu Xiaofu so lucky but he is not?

Even though Kang Jinwang had a good character since childhood, which reminded him all the time that he should not be jealous, he still couldn't help it. After so many years of experience, Kang Jinwang became more and more lonely and sensitive.

God knows how much psychological work Kang Jinwang did when he found out that Wu Xiaofu was going to meet him today. He basically didn't sleep well last night.

He wanted Wu Xiaofu to give him a chance. He didn't want to compete with Wu Xiaofu for anything. He just wanted Wu Xiaofu to give him a chance to perform the operation. Although these patients came to Wu Xiaofu, they were important operations, so he hoped that Wu Xiaofu could give him a few, so that his skills would hopefully continue to improve.

Kang Jinwang is also willing to use his own strength to prove that he will not let these patients down.

But Wu Xiaofu directly assigned the three placeholder patients to his own name, which almost broke Kang Jinwang's defense for a split second. He knew clearly that there was nothing wrong with Wu Xiaofu doing this, as the patients came to Wu Xiaofu, and Wu Xiaofu was stronger, so there was nothing wrong with that.

But Kang Jinwang just couldn't help it.

Ugh!
Wu Xiaofu had already walked towards the operating room. After Kang Jinwang calmed himself down for a few minutes, he finally suppressed his sensitive emotions. Over the years, even though he felt that the hospital had treated him unfairly, there was one thing he never forgot, that is, as a doctor, the patient always comes first.

He would not be so jealous that he would tell his doctors not to help and let Wu Xiaofu complete the operation alone just because Wu Xiaofu took away all the important patients. He would not do such a thing.

After that strange emotion was suppressed, Kang Jinwang's rationality made him understand more. Kang Jinwang has always recognized Wu Xiaofu's strength. Since Wu Xiaofu would not give in, he could only settle for the second best and follow Wu Xiaofu to learn first.

So, Kang Jinwang asked Xiao Jiang to follow him to help Wu Xiaofu.

In the operating room, Wu Xiaofu nodded after seeing Kang Jinwang.

Wu Xiaofu has strong mental strength, and he can sense Kang Jinwang's complicated emotions, but the patient has been taken to the operating room. Wu Xiaofu doesn't know everything about Kang Jinwang, and there is no reason or time for him to handle this interpersonal relationship.

Moreover, given his current position, to be honest, this is not something he should consider.

However, the result was good. Kang Jinwang caught up and was willing to be an assistant, which surprised Wu Xiaofu. Fei Jinpeng had the ability to select people, regardless of anything else. Both Fang Ying and Kang Jinwang seemed to be good.

“How often do you do subtotal gastrectomy?”

Standing on the operating table, Wu Xiaofu asked Kang Jinwang, who nodded. "Not many. I am very confident that I can do it well, but I haven't met many patients like this before. I can only do one or two operations at most in a month, and most of them are patients I have won over from the outpatient clinic. However, I am confident that I can do it well. I have never had any problems with the operations I have performed before."

So that's how it is. Wu Xiaofu began to understand Kang Jinwang's emotions. It turned out that he really just wanted to have an operation. He could understand Kang Jinwang's situation. It was just like when he was studying for his master's degree, it seemed that there were only a few patients occupying seats in the department for a month or two.

These patients need to be snatched away and fought for.

"let's start."

This is a patient with gastric cancer. The mass is in the common site of gastric cancer, the gastric antrum, with a diameter of about six centimeters and slight lymph node infiltration. This operation requires a subtotal gastrectomy, followed by gastrojejunostomy and duodenum. Wu Xiaofu will also have to decide whether to perform a complete or partial resection depending on the situation.

When the operation started, Wu Xiaofu and Kang Jinwang both calmed down.

Xiao Jiang said nothing and helped seriously. He even dared not breathe too loudly for fear of getting into trouble.

The other doctors who came to observe were not in a much better condition. Kang Jinwang was in a very bad mood, and it was the first time they followed Wu Xiaofu, so they were afraid of running into trouble.

“The essence of subtotal gastrectomy is…”

After performing surgeries over the past two days, Wu Xiaofu has become accustomed to this type of teaching surgery and even enjoys it. Doing one job and getting two benefits at once is, in Wu Xiaofu's opinion, much more cost-effective than before.

What could be more perfect than being able to not only cure patients but also teach the techniques to others?

Kang Jinwang's technique is indeed good. At least he held the mirror level, making it more comfortable for Wu Xiaofu to do it.

As the operation progressed, Kang Jinwang's suppressed emotions disappeared.

Occasionally, she glanced at Wu Xiaofu, and her eyes became more and more complicated.

Kang Jinwang knew that Wu Xiaofu was capable, but he didn't expect him to be so capable. Wu Xiaofu's surgery was very fast and his work was very exquisite. Both the former and the latter made Kang Jinwang admire him.

More importantly, Wu Xiaofu's surgical ideas made Kang Jinwang understand a truth: being able to do it, knowing how to do it, and doing it well are really different.

If Wu Xiaofu really gave him this operation and performed it according to his ideas, the postoperative effect would probably be less than 30% of the operation performed by Wu Xiaofu. Kang Jinwang truly felt the gap.

Kang Jinwang is not a fool. The reality is right in front of him. Why would he do something stupid just out of jealousy? If he needs an operation, it should be done on Wu Xiaofu. If he does it on him, it would be irresponsible to the patient.

What's more, Wu Xiaofu explained it to him so carefully.

In the past, Kang Jinwang’s most anticipated thing every day was to perform surgery, especially difficult surgery, because he wanted to prove himself. But now Kang Jinwang found that he was not so anxious about performing surgery.

With such a good opportunity, the important thing is to learn more.
