He had a brief conversation with Boss Zhao about the situation, and after seeing off Boss Zhao, he returned to the reception hall to continue working.
His relationship with Ou Qinglan was now tacitly approved by her parents.
Moreover, her family was wealthier than he had imagined.
He definitely had to work harder to win the beauty’s hand sooner.
To get her parent’s consent, he needed something impressive to show. Only then would they feel comfortable entrusting their precious daughter to Li Jingsheng.
After this busy spell, by the time he finished treating all the waiting patients, it was already close to seven in the evening.
The work of a doctor is really too exhausting.
When a patient comes for consultation, you can’t just think about clocking out and pushing them away, right?
People coming to him for treatment was a sign of trust in him and in the Sunshine Clinic.
Now even Dr. Wang’s popularity was quickly increasing.
After all, with a certain amount of real skills, plus the excellent reputation of the Sunshine Clinic, gradually, Dr. Wang was also gaining the recognition of some patients.
For respiratory diseases, as long as they weren’t too challenging, Dr. Wang was handling them now.
However, for digestive diseases, Dr. Wang was still somewhat lacking, and after treating a few patients, Li Jingsheng temporarily suspended his authority in this area.
Whether it’s diagnosis or medication, learning and improvement are necessary.
For instance, when treating two patients with diarrhea, he uniformly used Montmorillonite powder, which left Li Jingsheng speechless.
Treating diarrhea isn’t complicated, but this kind of dogmatism, ignoring the actual situation of the patients, their age, physique, other symptoms, and the cause of diarrhea, uniformly using Montmorillonite powder.
He even explained to Li Jingsheng that the reason for using this medication was its quick efficacy, resulting in high patient approval.
Li Jingsheng questioned him back, asking what would happen if the patients stopped diarrhea the next day but their condition relapsed or even developed other complications?
Dr. Wang’s response at the time was that if patients developed other complications, the clinic would treat them if possible.
Moreover, tell the patient it’s no longer diarrhea but another illness.
At that time, the clinic could even increase revenue.
Patients wouldn’t have any negative views about the clinic.
After hearing this explanation, Li Jingsheng got angry and directly wanted to dismiss Dr. Wang.
Dr. Wang was startled and quickly admitted his mistake.
Yet when Li Jingsheng asked him what his mistake was, he couldn’t articulate it.
Later, Li Jingsheng earnestly asked him if the diarrhea patient was Dr. Wang’s family member, would he treat them the same way?
Dr. Wang thought for a moment and shook his head.
The answer was already clear.
If it’s his family, he wouldn’t treat them like this, so why be irresponsible with ordinary patients?
Li Jingsheng asked Dr. Wang to go home and write a self-criticism, deeply reflecting, and if the self-criticism wasn’t up to par, he wouldn’t need to come back to work.
The next day, Dr. Wang, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, handed Li Jingsheng a more than three-thousand-character self-criticism.
It was handwritten.
After reading it, Li Jingsheng wrote in red at the end of the self-criticism, "A doctor should have the heart of a parent, always remember, patients are like a doctor’s children."
Seeing this comment, Dr. Wang looked utterly ashamed and finally understood where his mistake lay.
This incident further taught him about the boss’s attitude towards diagnosis and revenue.
No deceitful behavior towards patients was permissible.
One must be responsible for patients, formulating treatment measures beneficial to patients from their perspective.
That day, Li Jingsheng gave Dr. Wang a day off, letting him go home and rest well, to return to work the next day.
From then on, when prescribing for patients, should there be a problem, Dr. Wang would frown and ponder repeatedly.
These actions were noted by Li Jingsheng.
He felt satisfied with Dr. Wang’s change in attitude.
Only the authority to treat digestive diseases was never given back to Dr. Wang.
After the employees left, Li Jingsheng remembered going to Qiaobang Hospital to check on the little girl who was mistakenly treated as mentally ill.
Given it’s not rabies, but with red spots on her face, he suspected it could be a nervous system-related illness.
"Have you tested for lupus?"
Li Jingsheng sent another message to the head of internal medicine.
"Considering screening for it, but the symptoms seem inconsistent."
"I just finished work, I’ll call you shortly after I arrive."
The other party replied with a fist-bump emoji.
Li Jingsheng shut down the computer, prepared to lock the door, and go eat.
You can’t go for a medical consultation on an empty stomach!
After a busy afternoon, he was indeed hungry.
The whole day he hadn’t had time to contact Ou Qinglan, he definitely needed to send a few messages, otherwise she might feel neglected.
Just then, someone walked in.
Li Jingsheng looked up and couldn’t help but be taken aback.
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt!"
The middle-aged couple who came in were none other than Ou Qinglan’s parents.
Ou Qinglan’s mother nodded at him with a smile, while her father was expressionless, casually looking around the reception hall.
Although the clinic’s scale looks much better now than before, to truly wealthy people, it’s probably not much.
"I heard your clinic moved here just over a month ago?"
The man’s Mandarin was actually not very standard.
"Yes!"
Li Jingsheng nodded in confirmation.
"We’ve observed you for two days, and your performance in every aspect is decent. When Qinglan chose you, we initially refused a thousand times. But now it seems your character should be quite good."
The man’s words were spoken rather seriously, unsure if he was naturally incapable of praise.
"We will leave Jiangli City tomorrow, and we ask you to take good care of Qinglan then. As long as you treat her well, we don’t care if you have money or social status. We have only one daughter, and although she’s furious at us for leaving the family inheritance to her brother, thinking we’re biased, that’s just the custom where we’re from."
The couple came from far away, carefully choosing the timing.
