Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic novel Chapter 677

Chapter 677: Chapter 311: Don’t Be Dogmatic—A High Standing in Orthopedics

"Dr. Han, although your teacher’s words were a bit serious, he made a very good point. As a clinical doctor, you need to be flexible-minded. When communicating with patients, as long as it encourages them to actively accept treatment, occasional kind lies can be very appropriate."

Shao Bing also quite likes this talented, smart, and beautiful female doctor.

Sometimes he shares some of his own medical experience with her.

"Got it! I’ll pay more attention in the future."

She’s very receptive to advice.

"Earlier, when you looked at that patient’s X-ray, you could actually determine a high probability of a benign tumor, which is pretty good. It shows you haven’t been slacking off lately and have been studying diligently."

After critiquing, Li Jingsheng appropriately praised her a bit.

The routine for teaching students is basically giving a stick, then a sweet date.

This is called blending encouragement with strictness.

Busy until around four in the afternoon, Director Zhang from thoracic surgery called.

"Dr. Li, thank you for introducing a patient to me today!"

"I should be the one thanking you. I was just afraid you wouldn’t listen to me, so I didn’t dare to promise the patient anything. Has the patient gone to see you?"

"Haha, you need to be more confident. At least in our thoracic surgery department, whenever you need something that I can handle, I definitely will. Not to mention, introducing patients to our department is a wonderful thing. The patient came to see me not long ago, I scheduled an appointment, and he’s already done some tests and been admitted."

Director Zhang laughed heartily, quite pleased.

People are like this, they enjoy being bothered by strong individuals or potential rising stars.

Li Jingsheng actively showed friendliness, and it made Director Zhang happy.

"The tumor of this patient isn’t that large, your incision and separation skills are quite good. How about coming over to assist with the surgery?"

Director Zhang actively invited him to join the operation.

This is actually a disguised form of mentoring.

What young doctors like Li Jingsheng lack most is surgical experience.

Having good technical skills isn’t enough.

One must accumulate abundant surgical experience to become a truly skilled surgeon.

Having only technical skills but lacking experience means facing a patient, one might not even know where to start the incision.

Intraoperative nuances, potential pitfalls, they are completely unaware.

"Sure! As long as you don’t worry about me causing trouble, I’m very eager to participate in such surgeries." Li Jingsheng happily agreed.

If one doesn’t know how to seize an opportunity handed to them, aren’t they a fool?

"Then it’s settled; you’ll be at the hospital tomorrow, right?"

"I will!"

"Hmm... Let me see if I can arrange the surgery at noon. I know your orthopedic bone-setting clinic is particularly busy. Once the arrangements are made, I’ll inform you ahead of time."

"Thank you, Director Zhang, for your mentorship!"

"Haha, you’re just sweet-talking and know how to handle things. Goodbye."

Director Zhang laughed and hung up the phone.

Both of them are busy, and having a brief conversation during work hours is already quite good.

Li Jingsheng thought, when the patient sees him in the operating room, what would they think?

Maybe many patients don’t realize that Li Jingsheng not only sees patients in the clinic but is also a doctor in the operating room at the Second Hospital.

Following this, he continued to be busy at the clinic until closing time.

After finishing up, he had a very important task to attend to.

The old professor who looked down on bone-setting techniques has been sent to the Second Hospital and has completed relevant tests, already scheduled for admission. They’re just waiting for Li Jingsheng to come and save them.

"Sister Tang, could you please lock the door later? I need to head to the hospital."

"No problem."

Tang Ping has always been a good assistant to Li Jingsheng.

She has many merits, especially her straightforwardness, and she always considers the boss when doing things.

Li Jingsheng is always very confident in leaving the clinic temporarily in her care.

And she has never disappointed Li Jingsheng.

Moreover, the employees at the clinic have a very positive work atmosphere. It makes everyone feel like they are an integral part of the clinic, their fates interconnected.

They don’t feel like they’re working for the boss but for themselves.

Or rather, everyone is united and striving towards a common goal.

After having a fifteen-dollar quick meal, Li Jingsheng took a cab to the Second Hospital.

He arrived at the orthopedic inpatient department.

Ou Qinglan is on night duty again tonight.

It seems like the extra shift is a great training session for her. Recently, she’s shown significant improvement in her medical proficiency in orthopedics.

Including surgical prognosis, postoperative medication, handling various situations, she’s demonstrated clear progress.

"Dear, did you come rushing to see me?"

She joked with a smile.

"Oh, Dr. Ou, can you stop flaunting your relationship? I also want a boyfriend as outstanding and considerate as Dr. Li."

The nurse on duty teased her.

Li Jingsheng’s status in the department is rising higher and higher, and these smart nurses actively maintain good relations with Ou Qinglan.

Implementing a curve diplomacy policy.

"There’s plenty of excellent young male doctors better than me in our orthopedic department! President Qin has long been wanting to date, so if you’re slow to act, someone else will snatch him away!"

Li Jingsheng said to the three nurses.

"Haha, although Dr. Qin is excellent, he’s not my type."

The nurse ladies seem to have a bias against Qin Fei.

It’s hard to fathom why; clearly, he looks decently handsome, comes from a good background, and has queued up for promotion to attending physician.

He has prospects, he has a house.

But quickly let go.

Because not only nurses and other doctors were around, but also family members and patients.

Even though he and Ou Qinglan were dating, and the whole department knew, they still needed to maintain their image.

Being seen by patients and families wouldn’t be good.

"That old professor is in Special Care Room 2. I’m off to work, have you had dinner?"

She was most concerned about Li Jingsheng’s well-being.

Always worried he was too busy to eat.

"Yes, I ate! What about you?"

"I’m much better at taking care of myself than you are, I’ve eaten long ago. Bye-bye."

She waved and went to another ward.

Recently, inpatient beds in orthopedics were quite tight, always full of patients.

Doctors and nurses working night shifts had a tremendous workload.

Hopefully, tonight wouldn’t bring too many new patients, and no emergencies among the inpatients.

If there was a patient needing urgent care, the whole department’s on-duty staff would be mobilized.

Pretty much would be extremely busy.

Li Jingsheng arrived at Director Hua’s office, knocked, and indeed found him still at work.

In terms of dedication, Director Hua rivals Dean Fu.

Both are passionate and idealistic people.

Dean Fu wants to revitalize the Second Hospital, turning it into a strong hospital that no longer needs ’greenhouse’ protection.

Director Hua exhausts himself solely to strengthen the orthopedic department.

These two are very principled, and Li Jingsheng is willing to interact with them.

"Xiaoli, you’re here! Very punctual!"

Even though busy, Director Hua put aside his work and got up to make tea for him.

"Director Hua, don’t trouble yourself. I know you’ve been especially busy lately, please guide me in treating that old professor."

Speaking candidly among one’s own people is easy.

Li Jingsheng’s words made Director Hua happy instead.

"You and Old Xu have similar temperaments. Both are particularly impatient."

Director Hua joked with a smile.

"Let’s go, I’ll lead you to the special care ward. The old professor’s temper is a bit odd, just ignore him and focus on treating him."

Director Hua briefed him beforehand.

"Don’t worry, I’ve seen many patients with explosive tempers, won’t throw in the towel just because of a few words."

Li Jingsheng chuckled.
