348 Harsh (1/2)

Department Director Lei used everything at his disposal before he finally managed to get himself out of the huge trap that was the issue of hospital beds.

He really dared not agree to it. In a large general hospital like Yun Hua Hospital, which covered up to millions of people in the province, even its elite departments had a certain degree of attraction to the provinces nearby. If it were really opened for all kinds of patients, each department would have a huge lack of hospital beds.

In fact, if there was no limitation placed on them by the medical insurance company, centers like Yun Hua Hospital could receive as many patients as they wanted per day.

Department Director Lei smiled and spoke teasingly in a self-deprecating manner, ”When I first saw Ling Ran, he was in the Hand Surgery Department's simulation training space. When I saw Ling Ran suture the rat tail, I knew he would be different. I didn't expect him to become so famous within a year because of surgery.”

Ling Ran only smiled.

Huo Congjun said in a warning tone, ”It's meaningless to talk about things in the past. The people in the Hand Surgery Department all have frozen brains. I remembered them saying that as long as the suture on the rat tail is completed, the doctor can join the department. But what happened? They didn't even know how to treasure the gold in front of them.”

As he spoke, Huo Congjun tugged Ling Ran and said, ”We've waited long enough, let's go up.”

”Oh,” answered Ling Ran. Then, he followed Old Huo and left.

While walking, Huo Congjun said, ”You've applied for the medical practitioner's qualification certificate, so whenever you're free, make some preparations. You need to pay attention to the theories as well. Once you pass the examination, it'll be more convenient for you when you want to do things. When our Emergency Medical Center is built, the number of hospital beds will increase as well.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

Ling Ran nodded and answered, ”Yes.”

Department Director Lei could do nothing else but smile while he followed them to the VIP building. When they arrived at the door, he pulled Huo Congjun over and said in a low voice, ”Remind Ling Ran not to say anything wrong later.”

”Why don't you tell him yourself?” Huo Congjun gazed at Department Director Lei.

Department Director Lei smiled wryly and said, ”Will he listen to me if I say it?”

Huo Congjun chuckled. ”Will it work if I say it?”

”You… You really have a big heart.” Department Director Lei felt resigned.

Huo Congjun still chuckled. ”Don't be so hung up on the matter. It'll be okay if we just don't let him in.”

Department Director Lei sighed, but he felt that what Huo Congjun said was right.

”We'll let fate decide our course.” As the director of the Medical Affairs Department, Department Director Lei was responsible for first-string doctors.

His administrative authority on normal first-string doctors was not small. But when it came to doctors with such great skills that the hospital was reluctant to let them go, his authority was rather small.

Chief Wang's secretary talked to the healthcare provider in a low voice in the ward. He first blocked Ling Ran in the living room and asked him a few questions before he released him to meet Chief Wang.

Chief Wang was sitting in a wheelchair. He extended his hand and shook Ling Ran's. Then, he smiled and said, ”Doctor Ling, you're young.”

Soon after, he continued. ”I can stand up, but I feel pain in my knees when I do. I feel even more uncomfortable after the flight. I'll need to take advantage of your skills.”

Ling Ran wore a faint smile. ”I'll do a physical examination for you first.”

”That's troublesome.” Chief Wang panted before he smiled and said to everyone in the room, ”I suddenly remember a storyteller that I once listened to when I was young. The characters always loved to say, 'Please forgive me for not giving you the proper greeting due to the armor that I'm wearing', and now, I understand why they said that.”

Chief Wang's youngest granddaughter had her eyes wide open since the start, staring at Ling Ran. When she heard that she could not help but chuckle.

”What happened?” Chief Wang looked at his youngest granddaughter strangely.

”I thought of Guo Degang's crosstalk.” His granddaughter felt a bit embarrassed.

”Guo Degang even has this in his crosstalk?”

”Yes.” His granddaughter snuck a few glances at Ling Ran and said, ”Grandpa, once your leg's recovered, let's go listen to a crosstalk.”

”Okay, sure.” Chief Wang felt very gratified. He looked at Ling Ran, smiled, and said, ”Doctor Ling, I'll be depending on you from now on.”

Ling Ran nodded and continued with the physical examination. After ensuring that the patient had his hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidaemia controlled at a normal level, under everyone's gazes, Ling Ran started to analyze Chief Wang's MRI scan, CT scan, and X-ray scan. They were taken before he arrived.

Ling Ran took a longer time to analyze and review the MRI scan as well as the X-ray scan since he had been reminded by Department Director Lei and Huo Congjun to do so.

In fact, with the skills Ling Ran had mastered at that point, his ability to read X-ray scans alone already allowed him to obtain a sufficient amount of information to start the surgery. He would be like the doctors who would have performed joint surgeries twenty or thirty years ago. Back then, they only had X-rays.

However, there was more information provided by the MRI scan.

Based on the numerical data on the PAD, Ling Ran could even judge the bone strength of each bone in the patient's knee.

If a surgery performed after only looking at an X-ray scan was as easy as it was for an artist to draw a circle, the surgery performed after looking at an MRI scan would be as easy as an artist drawing a circle using a compass.

Chief Wang looked at Ling Ran and secretly nodded in approval at the calmness he displayed.

He had met many doctors before. Some had strong mental fortitude, while some had weaker mental fortitude. But people like Ling Ran, who could ignore others for dozens of minutes, was truly… like a master.
