4 Zhang Fan is overwhelmed (1/2)

Zhang Fan completely fainted, and didn't wake up this time until the next day.

It was now time for the planned two-day weekend trip where the hospital's department heads took the new college graduates out into the plains for a two-day vacation. Zhang Fan sat in the back of the car without saying a single word.

”Don't worry about it. All of us got drunk last night. You were just the first to get drunk. We're all young, so how could we possibly compare to the veterans?” Li Hui could tell that Zhang Fan wasn't very happy, so he secretly whispered and tried to console Zhang Fan.

”That's not it. I really wasn't thinking so much about that. It's just that I've never been drunk before, so I'm still feeling a little dizzy. I think I'll take a little nap.” Actually, Zhang Fan was busy checking out the System that suddenly added itself to his mind.

The Super Medical Support System was a scientific creation that was created one hundred years in the future for the purpose of improving China's overall medical level. Countless scientists had worked together to invent this System which was capable of rapidly improving a doctor's medical level.

This System possessed various functions such as searching for medical knowledge, support, and training. For some unknown reason, the System slipped through dimensional cracks and entered Zhang Fan's body in summer of the year 2008, one hundred years before it was supposed to be invented.

The System automatically determined that Zhang Fan was a medical intern. This futuristic System was one that would help doctors learn and improve according to China's total accumulated medical knowledge.

Since Zhang Fan was currently only an intern doctor, the System's screen only showed him four options: internal medicine, surgery, gynaecology, and pediatrics. However, he was apparently allowed to choose and focus on learning from only one of these four options.

Zhang Fan immediately started checking out his new System after he woke up. After several years of college life, Zhang Fan was quite accepting of anything unexpected like this that happened to him, so he didn't panic when receiving a System unexpectedly.

Four major subjects, yet he would only be allowed to choose a single one, according to what his System told him. He would apparently only be allowed to choose a single subject to learn until he became an official doctor with his medical license. Zhang Fan was quite conflicted which to choose between internal medicine and surgery. He had already decided against gynaecology or pediatrics.

Since Zhang Fan was so busy working part-time jobs during medical school, his foundational knowledge was insufficient. If he chose internal medicine, he could improve his knowledge and make up for his weaknesses.

But, while Zhang Fan was previously interning at a hospital during his studies, he felt like he enjoyed surgery more. After much hesitation, Zhang Fan finally chose the surgery option.

After he chose surgery, the other three options in his System became grayed out and became unselectable. Two new options appeared under surgery: surgical clinical rehabilitation, and surgical clinical treatment. This time, the System allowed Zhang Fan to choose to study both.

Zhang Fan first decided to check out surgical clinical treatment. Hey! There were many more options under this category. Neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, general surgery, urological surgery, and many others. Zhang Fan preferred orthopedic surgery as it was the simplest and most direct, having the most obvious effects.

After he chose orthopedic surgery, there were even more options once again. Spine, joints, injuries, and many others. Zhang Fan was overwhelmed by all the options.

He began to feel dizzy after seeing that there were so many options. He felt like that famous internet phrase ”those who recommend others to learn medicine should die” was quite accurate right now.

There were far too many subjects to learn. This was also one of the objectives that future scientists had when inventing this System. This System was capable of swiftly improving a doctor's medical talents instead of doctors requiring ten-plus years of work experience in order to truly become skilled.

If Zhang Fan wanted to learn the subjects under orthopedic surgery, he would first have to master the foundations of surgery. With his System's guidance, Zhang Fan slowly started learning more about the fundamental basics of surgery.

Fluid infusion, anti-interference, and basic first aid for trauma. These were the three major categories of study under surgery for basic knowledge. Zhang Fan felt like he was about to collapse.

”Did I attend a fake medical school? I've never even seen some of these subjects in school before.” But since he personally chose this pitfall known as the medical field, he would go all the way down this path no matter what it took.
