305 Easy task (2/2)

But even after adding up all the time he spent performing surgeries, Ling Ran had only used up around one hour, and he also had another chief resident as his assistant.

”Are we done?” Ling Ran looked at Yu Yuan.

”The patients and their families wish to discuss with you about the patient's condition before they decide to perform the surgery or not.” Yu Yuan's voice sounded weak.

”Must they meet with me?” Ling Ran asked to confirm again.

Yu Yuan answered firmly, ”They came because of your reputation. They say they don't feel at ease to receive the surgery if they don't see you first.”

”If you go to the pet shop and get a cat, all the salespeople need to do is just to provide a picture of the cat's parents.”

Yu Yuan looked at Ling Ran skeptically and said, ”Doctor Ling, are you trying to drop a hint saying that I should bring your picture over and let them take a look?”

”Stop kidding. Those who come for consultation are all the patients and their families who are very worried. What is the purpose of showing them my photo?” Ling Ran shook his head and said, ”It's not as if I'm trying to barter with the salespeople in the market to get a better price.”

”If… I go to the market to get a better bargain, is it useful to show your photo?” Yu Yuan was a bit stunned.

”Let's stop talking about this first, you go and gather the patients and their families. Then sort out their MRI scans for me.”

”Hang on…” Yu Yuan said. She was reluctant to give up. ”Let's talk about bartering in the markets first.”

”Is surgery or shopping more important?” Ling Ran asked Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan opened her mouth and suddenly realized that this was a difficult question. This scenario was as difficult as the question, ”Who would you save if your boyfriend and mother fell into the water at the same time?”

Half an hour later.

Yu Yuan gathered the remaining patients with Achilles tendon ruptures and their families together. There were a total of eight patients and around twenty family members.

Liu Weichen's advertising effects had already spread out to the public. But that did not mean that this would produce a sufficient number of patients with Achilles tendon ruptures in the area. Even if a normal person saw the advertisement, they could only shrug, because they could do nothing about it.

Even they were Liu Weichen's die-hard fans, it was impossible for them to rupture their own Achilles tendons so that they could ”buy” the ”product” endorsed by their idol.

This was the kind of ”product” where the consumers would not spend their money buying even if they had the money to do so. Liu Weichen's fame was already proven to be very great by the fact that Ling Ran could get the patients with Achilles tendon ruptures in the two digits today.

In comparison, the doctors who attended the conference could be seen as advertisers who advertised Ling Ran's skills to a certain group of people, whereas Liu Weichen was just like melatonin. Melatonin was advertised widely to the masses, just like what Liu Weichen did for Ling Ran's skills…

An attending physician brought the resident doctor who weighed 230.38 pounds by his side in order to support Ling Ran.

However, they did not provide much help for the medical environment around them right then, because it was as chaotic as a market.

The meeting room of the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center was never big, and the air became polluted when so many people were stuffed in it.

If this were any other field, the company would shut down soon, because the consumers' experience during the marketing session was utterly terrible.

But in the medical field, everyone would want their body to recover as well as possible. Naturally, no one would want to go over to a hospital that just provided a nice atmosphere but could not heal them.

The noisy scenario continued until Ling Ran turned up.

Ling Ran came over to the meeting room right on time. Without any nonsense, he said, ”I'll do some distribution now. Those whose names I called, please come to me with your family members.”

Ling Ran lifted the MRI scans and read the names above them, ”Jiang Hong, Jin Hongcai, Li Wanke, Wang Fangjun. All of you and your families, please come to me. I've gone through your MRI scans. Your Achilles tendons aren't completely ruptured. If all of you are not going to major in sports over the next few years or have sports as your hobby, I recommend all of you to do receive minimally invasive surgery for your Achilles tendons.”

Without waiting for these four patients and their families to respond, Ling Ran called out another three names. He stood in the middle and said, ”Your situation is similar, but the location of your rupture is not ideal, I recommend all of you to do limited incision surgery.”

Then, Ling Ran said to the last patient, ”You can only receive a large incision for your surgery.”

After that, Ling Ran made everyone even more confused and said, ”The patients I called first, if you have any other thoughts, you can request for the surgery that I mentioned for the group of patients I called after yours. That means for the patients to which I recommended minimally invasive surgery, if you are worried about the effects of minimally invasive surgery, you can opt for limited incision surgery. Those to whom I recommended limited incision surgery can also choose to receive surgeries with large incisions too. But you cannot go in reverse in your choices, understand?”

”We understand.” The patients and their families were shocked by Ling Ran. They no longer had any opinions.

Ling Ran relieved a sigh of relief in secret. He had mastered different kinds of Achilles tendon repair techniques. Although he was famous because of Plan A, he could not perform this surgery for normal people.

He was afraid of talking to patients and their families the most, so he deliberately avoided talking to them one-to-one. He turned around and said, ”Now, let me explain how the three types of surgeries I mentioned will be conducted, along with their advantages and disadvantages…”

The group of patients and their families listened, so he naturally canceled his plan of running away.

”I didn't know that Doctor Ling could control the patients and their families,” whispered the attending physician who came to support him and maintain a good appearance for the centered whispered. He was also relieved.

”It's just because he is good looking.” The 230.38-pound resident doctor took a bottle of mineral water and drank it. His movements were bold and heroic, and not even a single drop of water fell down.
