Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 160

"""

Li Jingsheng was well aware that since both the Children's Hospital and the People's Hospital couldn't cure this child's illness, the difficulty must be at the ceiling level. Even if he upgraded his doctor level and gastroenterological diagnosis by one level, there was still a chance he wouldn't be able to diagnose it.

After all, the chief physicians at those big hospitals are at least at the deputy director level.

If they couldn't diagnose it, how could a small clinic doctor like Li Jingsheng accomplish it? Are they just doing nothing?

Competition at big hospitals is fiercer; doctors without real skills, even if they obtain senior titles, don't engage in clinical work.

Instead, they focus on research and teaching.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong and tarnishes the hospital's reputation, who would be responsible?

Only the chief physicians qualified to see patients in the clinic or lead a team in the inpatient department have genuine expertise, and they excel in at least one field.

Opportunities are hard to come by, and Li Jingsheng hesitated only briefly before spending 308 life points to advance his doctor level.

Level: Low-Seniority Attending Physician 1000.5/2000.

Rising to the next level requires 1000 experience points, which is intimidating.

If he were to diligently work in the hospital to accumulate experience points with his mediocre medical talent, the thought wouldn't even cross his mind in less than a decade.

Now, Li Jingsheng finally understood why some attending physicians work for thirty or forty years and still retire at the attending level.

It's lonely at the top.

Only upon reaching the attending level does one truly comprehend how difficult it is to advance to the next tier.

Now as a low-seniority attending physician, moving to the next level should be high-seniority attending physician, and that already requires 1000 experience points.

After reaching high-seniority attending physician, the next upgrade would be to deputy chief physician.

The estimated required experience points would be an even more daunting number.

Let alone advancing through hard work; even with cheats, accumulating several thousand life points makes him feel weak at the knees.

So much that he'd like to kneel!

Having successfully advanced to the attending level, the first reaction he had was to see his past self as trash.

That's truly the feeling.

It's not arrogance.

The gap between attending physician and resident physician may seem only a level apart, but the comprehension and application of medical knowledge, the height and breadth of diagnostic thinking, the medication approach, surgical thinking, and understanding of surgery are worlds apart.

Even in big hospitals, it's only after reaching attending that one can start seeing patients, supervising interns, independently hosting certain diagnostic and treatment work, etc.

The number of attending physicians in big hospitals is enormous, and the discrepancies are vast.

For example, a medical student who has completed eight years of continuous undergraduate and postgraduate education graduates and works for a year before directly advancing to attending.

His thesis level and theoretical knowledge might be high, but his clinical practice level and diagnostic experience might only be slightly better than a regular resident trainer.

This is not an insult; it's the truth.

For example, when Li Jingsheng was previously in a big hospital, based on years of service, he had already reached high-seniority resident physician level.

Yet his actual diagnostic skills were still at low-seniority resident physician.

"Being promoted to attending level is fantastic!"
