Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: This Family Is Strange

Not only is the quality of the goods good, but the prices he receives are cheaper, which means his profits are larger, or he can lower the selling price and have no issue engaging in a pricing war with big pharmacies.

Moreover, the medicine he sells will bring a good reputation for his small clinic.

The most peculiar advantage is the protection mechanism agreement with Best Medicine Company.

On this Old Street of South City, Li Jingsheng’s Sunshine Clinic signed the agreement, so other pharmacies or clinics cannot get their goods. They can only seek substitutes.

This will provide an immensely competitive advantage for Li Jingsheng’s small clinic.

Hopefully, Boss Zhao won’t come to Sunshine Clinic after being discharged. Otherwise, he’ll see how Li Jingsheng, in just a few days has transformed and started selling quality goods, while his Quick Recovery Clinic still sells trashy goods from Lining Pharma.

By then, Boss Zhao might end up being sent to the hospital again for rescue.

Sunshine Clinic, thanks to his efforts, is slowly turning the tide in desperate situations, letting in brighter light.

Everything is getting better.

At this moment, the words "the future is promising" popped into his mind.

Being able to survive on the extremely competitive Old Street of South City is truly challenging.

He is quietly establishing himself, enhancing his clinic’s competitiveness bit by bit.

At this time, a man and a woman helped a man in his sixties walk in.

The old man’s skin is fair, slightly thin, yet he has quite a good temperament, with a scholarly vibe.

But his complexion looks not so well, somewhat gloomy.

Judging by this situation, they are definitely not here to buy tonics or health supplements.

According to Li Jingsheng’s experience, when elderly come with their children, never think about selling health supplements.

He and Tang Ping have tried countless times, never succeeded once.

Clearly spending their parents’ money, yet when the children hear dad or mom want to buy a box of supplements costing hundreds, they immediately act like strangers. They’ll drag their parents out of the clinic.

Don’t know why, young people seem to resist health supplements particularly.

Health-labeled drugs aren’t as bad as imagined.

As long as they are produced by legitimate manufacturers, not claiming to cure all diseases, they generally have some effects of health maintenance and care.

As for the profit margin in this industry, it’s a matter of willingness, everyone sells medicine based on their skills.

"Who is Dr. Li?"

The man supporting the old man asked Tang Ping, who was selling medicine behind the counter.

This person is around thirty years old, wears black-framed glasses, and because of a perpetual frown, a faint "川" character appears on his brow.

He gives off a very solemn feeling.

Everything he says and does is methodically by the book.

He might be a teacher, or maybe a scholar or a technical researcher.

Li Jingsheng speculated privately about the man’s identity.

"I am! May I know what the matter is?"

Li Jingsheng directly took over the conversation.

"Hello Dr. Li. My father has been experiencing night sweats, coughing, weakness all over, and a slight fever lately, we’d like you to take a look." The man helped the old man sit by the examination table.

"Let me first measure your temperature and blood pressure, and listen to your heart and lungs."

Li Jingsheng maintains caution in attending to every patient.

The cautious work attitude, as if walking on thin ice, is already deeply ingrained in his bones.

Whether at a hospital or running his own clinic, one must avoid medical mishaps.

A minor accident might just lead to some penalties, to some compensation.

A major mishap, and the career could be essentially over.

Therefore, encountering any negligent, irresponsible doctor, there’s no need to get angry, as they will eventually face consequences. Certainly won’t last long.

Unless they leave frontline clinical work.

Measured the temperature, 37.2 degrees, the fever isn’t prominent, it’s considered low fever.

In clinical practice, temperatures 37.1 to 38 degrees are seen as low fever.

However, sometimes a temperature of 37.4 degrees might still be normal.

As some fevers are just transient.

Especially children, their temperature is slightly higher than adults, making it harder to determine.

However, for patients with this type of cough, temperature becomes a crucial diagnostic indication.

Li Jingsheng calmly continued measuring other vital signs for the patient: pulse was 115 beats per minute, slightly fast. This indicates the patient’s heart rate is probably also 115 bpm, while normal is between 60 to 100.
