Chapter 675: Chapter 279: The Formidable Youth, Dr. Du Bows His Head After Being Beaten Down by Society_3
“I agree! Youth is to be admired indeed! Dr. Zhou is young and talented with top-notch diagnostic skills, which truly earns my respect.”
Director Jiang’s impression of Zhou Can was already favorable, and this was further reinforced because Director Tan from Internal Medicine had always particularly liked Zhou Can.
Now that Zhou Can had made substantial progress in this difficult case, Director Jiang simply added praise to praise, lavishing Zhou Can with compliments.
“Director Jiang’s praise is so overwhelming that I’m at a loss for words! I just happened to have accumulation in the field of general surgery, which enabled me to make this discovery.” Zhou Can was modestly embarrassed.
Being lavishly praised by a Chief Physician in front of everyone made him somewhat uncomfortable.
He was used to keeping a low profile, and he found himself quite shy in such situations.
“Since both Directors agree with Dr. Zhou’s opinion, I will go ahead and submit the request for the patient’s examination.” This time, Zhang Bihua had no intention of discussing it with the family.
She believed that as long as the family’s brains weren’t squashed by a door, they would surely agree.
In fact, the faces of the two family members already showed expressions of hopeful joy.
Having sought medical advice from so many hospitals, they finally saw some fresh progress today.
Normally, when entering other hospitals, it was either CT scans or bronchoscopy, all sorts of biochemical tests. The end result was no result at all, and the true cause of their daughter’s illness was never found, nor was she cured.
“Dr. Zhou, are just the thyroid function and osteoporosis tests enough for the patient?”
When Director Zhang asked this, it showed she was open-minded and very pragmatic.
Had it been a more superficial Chief Physician, they might have put on a show, commented a few words as a superior, and directly issued the examination request.
They wouldn’t publicly ask for the opinion of a junior doctor.
Zhou Can nodded repeatedly.
Director Zhang issued the examination request for the patient on the spot, and the family members happily accepted it, waking up their precious daughter to take her for the tests.
When the young female patient was woken up, she asked her parents hazily what was going on.
The mother of the patient told her daughter directly, “This young Dr. Zhou and several specialists have found the cause of your illness! Hurry, hurry, let’s go for the examination. Ah, today we finally came to the right place. Tuya Hospital’s doctors are indeed very skilled, much better than the doctors in other hospitals!”
The words of the family member to the patient made the hearts of the few specialists present feel especially cool and comfortable.
This was also the first time they heard praise for the high standards of Tuya Hospital since they started consulting here.
While there was a significant breakthrough with this challenging case on this side, bringing joy all around, Du Leng was still stuck in misery.
He was unable to diagnose the first two challenging cases, which resulted in angry departures.
Now with the third challenging case, he was equally confused without any leads.
This time, Du Leng learned to be clever.
Not waiting for the family to scold him, he hastily set aside his so-called face, rushing to say to Zhang Bihua, “Director Zhang, Director Zhang, this patient has a low fever, blurred vision, hearing loss, leg pain. The tests show an abnormal elevation of liver enzymes, 52% lymphocytes, and 8% atypical lymphocytes. Bone marrow puncture reveals active growth. There’s also an issue with the patient’s ESR.”
After quickly reporting the patient’s basic situation, Du Leng continued.
“I only specialize in the diagnosis of diseases related to neurosurgery and thyroid & breast surgery. The patient’s condition is complicated, and it truly exceeds my ability to diagnose and treat. Please, you and the other Directors help take a look.”
Humans are the most adaptable animals.
Du Leng had already been hit hard by society twice, and he learned to bow his head.
If he didn’t bow his head, his face would be swollen today.
It was also because the patient’s family member was a middle-aged woman with a refined dress and good temperament. At first glance, one could tell she was from a superior quality of life.
Had it been a family member with a violent temper, they likely would have scolded him just like the previous two families did.
Even though this patient’s family member had high quality, it didn’t mean she was easy to talk to.
Seeing her exquisitely made-up face already cold as ice, it’s probable that she was already extremely dissatisfied with Du Leng’s diagnostic abilities.
“That lady, please bring the patient over here! We will give her a joint diagnosis.”
Zhang Bihua spoke to the family member. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel_fіre.net
“Okay then! Thank you for your trouble!”
The family member brought the patient over, and her originally cold face also warmed up a bit.
As they walked over, they did not look back at Du Leng or say goodbye.
This indicated how unsatisfied she was with Du Leng.
The young female patient looked very young, probably not over twenty years old. She was a beauty, just like her mother.
However, her face showed the sickly pallor and flush, her eyes were lifeless, and her expression hinted at pain, seeming to be heavily tormented by the illness.
No matter how glorious a person is, once sick, they can quickly be tortured until unrecognizable.
Whether it is in stature, appearance, or temperament, all will be vastly different from the glory and health of the past.
“Have you been treated at other hospitals?”
After receiving the patient’s materials, Zhang Bihua motioned for them to sit down.
“Yes. My daughter has been ill for quite some time, almost approaching two years now. It was just a common cold at first, with fever, nasal congestion, and runny nose the next day. At the time, I thought it was just a minor cold that would quickly resolve with plenty of water and rest. Unexpectedly, after a few days, the illness didn’t improve, and I started to worry. Her father is often abroad on business trips, and I am also busy with work and lack the care for my child…”
The words of the family member were filled with guilt.
