Since Miao Tansheng resigned from the hospital, he only focused on earning a lot of money.

His focus paid off, especially when compared to his peers. Miao Tansheng's monthly income from cosmetic sutures was already comparable with a group of junior attending physicians.Together with double eyelid operations and injections of hyaluronic acid, Miao Tansheng's monthly income in Lower Groove Clinic was not worse than an associate chief physician in the tertiary Grade A hospital.

Of course, he rode on the wave of Lower Groove Clinic, so Miao Tansheng treasured his current job very much.

However, people's mindset would change. As the saying went, ”When a person is well-fed and warmed, he will think of something else.” When he had earned enough, Miao Tansheng could not help but start thinking of something else.

Thoughts like improving his skills or performing some high-end surgeries popped up in Miao Tansheng's mind from time to time, just like how problems would appear on the face from time to time after it receives a hyaluronic acid injection. By then, it would be a reminder to the person that it was time for her to receive another injection.

Unfortunately, for doctors who left big hospitals, while earning money was easy, it was not easy to do things related to skills and surgeries.

The development of modern medicine kept promoting surgery specialization and teamwork. In the past, an appendectomy performed by a township hospital was not different from a big hospital in essence. Some experienced surgeons in county hospitals might even be able to perform the surgery better than newbies in big hospitals.

However, as laparoscopes appeared, the situation became completely different. A bigger gap inevitably appeared between hospitals who could afford and use laparoscopes well and the hospitals who could not afford laparoscopes and were not good at using them, regardless of how good their skills were when it came to performing open appendectomy.

Surgeries requiring higher and complicated skills were naturally not friendly to small hospitals and clinics.

Usually, Miao Tansheng always paid attention to looking for opportunities, but for a doctor who had left the hospital, he would have to be very opportunistic to gain chances.

From Miao Tansheng's perspective, there was no better chance than Lower Groove Clinic.

If Ling Jiezhou and Ling Ran were willing to expand Lower Groove Clinic, the chance would be even more precious to Miao Tansheng.

”I can get patients.” Miao Tansheng decided to grab this chance, so he answered loudly when the father-son duo were talking.

He was very sure that with how busy a doctor like Ling Ran was, if Miao Tansheng did not seize the chance this time, he could not be sure when would be the next time he could meet Ling Ran. At that time, Ling Ran and Ling Jiezhou's thoughts might change again.

Miao Tansheng's interruption made Ling Jiezhou stunned a little.

Ling Jiezhou then smiled. ”Old Miao, where are you going to get patients? You don't go and cut off people's hands at night, right?”

”My body can't afford to take up a hacking knife, anyway.” Miao Tansheng gave a random answer before he quickly continued, ”Of course, I'm still able to hold a scalpel. I'll have no problem persisting in normal surgeries for four to five hours.”

”Amazing.” Ling Jiezhou laughed.

”Although I left the hospital, I still have my previous contacts.” Miao Tansheng switched the topic back and said, ”If it comes to patients, we all know about the current condition of public general hospitals. Many patients cannot even get a hospital bed. If Doctor Ling is in charge of the clinic, I think getting a few patients will not be difficult.”

Miao Tansheng's fish eyes twitched to hide his nervousness.

If the clinic decided to perform surgeries, he would naturally become the assistant. Doctor Xiong was too old. It was not a problem for him to be the physician in charge while talking and prescribing medications, but not performing surgeries.

Although the type of surgeries they could carry out was limited and they practically did not have any surgeries to choose from, Miao Tansheng was still very excited when he thought that the chief surgeon was going to be Ling Ran.
