This doctor is already middle-aged, and he's only just started practicing medicine.

Chapter 100 The Nagging Doctor! ~ (Bonus Chapter for 400 First Subscriptions)

"Hey, who is it?"

After Lu Cheng's call was connected, the young man's voice came from the other end of the line.

Lu Cheng replied, "Brother, hello, I am Lu Cheng from the Emergency Department of Longxian People's Hospital. You can call me Dr. Lu."

"First of all, on behalf of the doctors on duty in our emergency department, I must apologize to you. We really cannot handle your current situation."

The young man's tone was sarcastic: "Why bother calling if it's useless? I've already called a private car."

Looking at the patient's ultrasound report and recalling the ultrasound doctor's comments, Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said with a forced smile, "Brother, my abilities are limited, and my skills aren't great."

"Actually, being a doctor is also a profession. If you have good skills, you can work in a better place. Our abilities are limited, so we stayed in the county to make a living."

“Not being proficient in one’s skills is definitely a lack of effort, but medical technology can only be learned gradually, and we are constantly making improvements.”

"But at least we've learned a little bit, so we've managed to get to this position. Based on what we know, we'd like to sincerely give you some advice, brother."

"Please don't think I'm being impatient, okay?" Lu Cheng's tone was ingratiating, even a little obsequious.

To be honest, if the other party's life hadn't been in danger, and if Lu Cheng hadn't felt that the other party's insults weren't serious enough to warrant death, Lu Cheng really wouldn't have bothered saying such things.

But it's a life after all.

The young man jokingly said, "You just want me to call 120 so you can make money, right? Why don't you just tell me how much I should pay you and how much commission you can get, and I'll transfer it to you directly?"

Lu Cheng replied, "Brother, you've really misunderstood. The current 120+ are outsourced. That's the company making money; we don't get a single penny."

"If you don't believe me, you can check it online."

"Look, brother, you've already sworn at me in the hospital, and the things you said weren't very nice. Anyone with a bad temper wouldn't have contacted you again, right?"

"Well, we do have some medical knowledge, so we think your liver cyst is quite large, causing local swelling of the liver."

"If you accidentally rupture the lump while traveling, it could lead to bleeding, peritonitis, or even death."

"To be honest, brother, you're not exactly short of money. There's no need to wait until it's too late to regret it."

"Life is more important than money!"

"I'm calling you again to sincerely give you advice: please get a referral through 120."

"Through 120 referral, the transporting doctor can contact the hospital in advance, and the emergency department and the destination hospital can make preparations to receive the patient as soon as possible, ensuring your safety faster, safer, and more comprehensively."

Do you think what I said makes sense?

Lu Cheng's words were sincere and not harsh, which surprised the young man.

He then asked, "Is my situation a bit dangerous?"

"It's fine if it doesn't rupture, but once it does, it will be a big problem. Moreover, the risk of rupture of the edema and hematoma caused by this cyst is very high."

“Our hospital cannot handle this situation, not because it is common, but because it is extremely rare. This is not an exaggeration, nor is it because we are deliberately overestimating your risk or trying to scare you.”

"But given the current situation, we have to give you a relatively better suggestion."

“You can call 120 yourself! You don’t need to come to our hospital, and we don’t need to take care of anything,” Lu Cheng said.

"Furthermore, if you still believe our hospital is a relatively safe place, I suggest you wait in our emergency department. That way, if anything unexpected happens, we can offer you some assistance." "This process is free; you can just sit and wait." Seeing that the other party was interested, Lu Cheng explained even more patiently.

The young man said, "I'm not paying, you've got to say for sure!"

He thought about it for a moment, and realized that the doctors in the hospital, if not after his money, didn't seem to be after anything else.

"We absolutely will not pay any money, and we won't even approach you on our own initiative!" Lu Cheng assured him.

While it's true that we should respect other people's fates, we should still try our best to persuade people whose lives are in danger.

Lu Cheng has a recording. If he really can't persuade them, then Lu Cheng has fulfilled the last bit of duty of the emergency department.

If they could persuade him, then the young man would have avoided a life-or-death gamble...

In the emergency room, after Lu Cheng hung up the phone, Han Xiaoping also ended his phone recording.

After noting the detailed time and location, Han Xiaoping said, "Brother Lu, it has to be you."

"If it were me, given his attitude and the recordings of what he said in the consultation room, I wouldn't have made that call."

Lu Cheng replied, "Hey, Brother Han, it's easy for me to say this when I'm not in the situation. The patient didn't directly criticize me."

“If I were on duty and a patient cursed at me like that, and completely ignored my commands, I probably wouldn’t call either.”

"I'm just trying to appease Du Daihua by being a pushover. Brother Han, please don't take it to heart. After all, it's a life."

After thinking about it, Han Xiaoping no longer really felt that Lu Cheng was "causing trouble" or deliberately setting himself up as a benchmark.

Fifteen minutes later, the ambulance that the patient had called arrived.

However, Lu Cheng did not completely ignore the situation as he had said on the phone. Instead, he took the patient's medical record and test results and went to hand them over to the ambulance doctor.

The accompanying doctor took one look and immediately gasped: "Good heavens, such a large cyst?"

"How long did you endure the pain before coming to the hospital?"

"What you're doing is a bit dangerous..."

The young man didn't reply, but he recognized Lu Cheng's voice and knew that the person who had just called him was Lu Cheng. He also remembered Lu Cheng's eyes.

"Teacher, please pay close attention to this patient, especially his blood pressure and blood oxygen levels. Before he goes to the state hospital, transfer him to another hospital in advance, because he will definitely need emergency surgery."

"We really can't handle this here." After saying that, Lu Cheng took a few steps back and closed the door...

About two and a half hours later, when Lu Chengdu was about to leave work, he saw a faint notification.

[By carefully diagnosing the patient's condition and patiently persuading them to be transferred to a specialized facility using specialized equipment, the likelihood of hemorrhagic shock and widespread severe peritonitis was reduced, earning 3.5 skill points.]

3.5 points?

Wow, I learned so much from all these skill points I encountered today without putting in any technical effort!
Indeed, clinical practice is full of treasures; it is not necessary to use actual surgical techniques to cure and treat patients.

Lu Cheng didn't contribute much technical skill, but the referral advice was crucial, potentially costing a life. Therefore, Lu Cheng accepted the 3.5 skill points without any psychological burden.

Feels so good...
