My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1427 - 569: Assistant Lecturer, the Severe Consequences of Myocardial Necrosis
Previously on My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points...
Nearly fifty minutes later, Zhou Can hurried to the Director’s office in the Internal Medicine building.
In terms of status, Director Tan holds a position second only to the Deputy Director.
Whispers suggest that if Tuya’s departments triumphantly complete their reforms this time, the heads of each major department might ascend to Deputy Director automatically.
This presents a swift path for Zhou Can’s advancement.
Currently, his sole ambition is to rapidly enhance his academic credentials, a crucial factor for his future title evaluations, competition for significant roles, comprehensive physician scores, and numerous other developmental aspects.
The door to the Director’s office was shut.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
He knocked politely, and Director Tan’s calm, mellow voice responded.
"Come in!"
Upon entering, Zhou Can found Director Tan engrossed in an old book.
It was a tome on traditional Chinese medicine.
Physicians in internal medicine appreciate delving into medical theories and pathology, and at advanced stages, they even explore the intricacies of pulse diagnosis.
Presently, at least three developed nations have pioneered automated pulse diagnostic instruments, inspired by traditional Chinese medicine’s techniques. However, their success has remained consistently unsatisfactory.
This stems from the fact that Chinese medicine’s pulse diagnosis necessitates the practitioner’s profound understanding of pulse logic, its significance, and diagnostic experience, followed by a holistic assessment.
It inherently involves critical human autonomous wisdom, ever-evolving and demanding flexible diagnostic approaches.
With current artificial intelligence, replication is simply unattainable.
Even after an additional fifty years, automated pulse diagnostic instruments are unlikely to achieve substantial breakthroughs.
Traditional Chinese medicine is deep and insightful; those unfamiliar perceive it as mystical.
Only those who grasp its principles view it as genuine medicine.
Today, the vast majority of young physicians in China regard traditional Chinese medicine as rather ‘esoteric.’ A common trend is for doctors to universally recommend difficult cases or terminally ill patients to seek consultation with a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
From this viewpoint, traditional Chinese medicine has undoubtedly been significantly undermined.
At least Zhou Can has personally witnessed the efficacy of Chinese medicine; Su Qianqian’s kidney ailment, if treated with Western methodologies, would have left only kidney transplantation as an option. Yet, through traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, supplemented by dietary adjustments, exercises, and other modalities, she was ultimately cured.
She has now undergone three follow-up examinations, all indicating normal urine analysis and robust kidney function.
"Director Tan!"
"You’ve arrived! Please have a seat!"
Director Tan rose and prepared a cup of wellness tea for him, infused with goji berries, astragalus, and other beneficial herbs.
Few are granted the honor of having Director Tan personally prepare tea as a gesture of hospitality.
Zhou Can is a notable exception.
"There are two matters I must discuss with you. Firstly: the myocardial infarction patient from yesterday is rather unique; he is the Director of the Third Hospital."
Upon mentioning Zhang Qilian’s prominent position, Director Tan displayed a subtly amused smile.
Truly rather intriguing.
The Third Hospital itself specializes in cardiothoracic services and once commanded immense prestige, so much so that its affiliations were obscure.
Now, its Director suffered a myocardial infarction, and their own institution was incapable of managing the crisis, necessitating his transfer to Tuya Hospital for urgent care.
The crucial detail is that Tuya successfully managed to save his life.
"The Third Hospital once inflicted considerable damage upon our hospital, making this an exceptional opportunity for public relations for our cardiovascular and cardiothoracic departments. The hospital administration is already planning interviews and widespread publicity."
Director Tan’s pronouncements, while delivered calmly, carried an undertone of assertiveness.
Professionalism does not equate to commercial strategy, nor does benevolence equate to effective leadership.
Individuals who attain significant leadership roles within a hospital are formidable adversaries. When necessary, their methods are decisive and unyielding.
A gentleman’s retribution might be delayed, but it is never forgotten.
It is abundantly clear that Tuya Hospital intends to leverage this incident ruthlessly for its benefit.
A nation in peril should not exhibit timidity, a lesser force should not cower before a stronger one; these are unacceptable vulnerabilities.
When the Third Hospital acted aggressively against Tuya Hospital, they should have foreseen this eventual reckoning.
Tuya Hospital may choose to display magnanimity, but this does not imply an endorsement of blind forgiveness.
"As this situation involves you directly, I wished to provide you with advance notice, as a courtesy. During the period of publicity, the hospital may require your cooperation."
The removal of Zhang Qilian’s thrombus and the clearance of his vascular pathways were, in essence, entirely performed by Zhou Can.
Now, they intend to leverage this situation for publicity; out of respect, it is essential to inform Zhou Can beforehand.
Regarding the 'consultation,' it is largely a procedural formality.
When leaders 'consult' with their subordinates, it typically serves as a heads-up. The leaders have, in essence, already made their decisions, and while subordinates may offer objections, these rarely sway the final outcome.
"I will certainly do my utmost to cooperate with the hospital’s publicity efforts,"
Zhou Can immediately conveyed his position.
He understands that Director Tan will relay his attitude back to the hospital leadership.
Utilizing the Third Hospital as a stepping stone presents no psychological hurdles for Zhou Can. Decisiveness is paramount for survival.
To maintain a benevolent, saintly mindset when a critical strike is needed is simply preposterous.
Exploit its weakness and bring it down – this is the proper method for survival.
The law of the jungle prevails.
Lions and tigers never show empathy for the weak; instead, they focus on acquiring the necessary sustenance for survival with minimal effort.
"Second matter: Your interventional procedure skills are superb, already at a very high level. Internal Medicine has been lacking in interventional skills, which is incompatible with modern hospital competition. I want to appoint you as a teacher for interventional procedures in Internal Medicine, specifically to train young doctors in these techniques. I know you are very busy, but every doctor will eventually enter the teaching field; this is the only way medicine can be passed down and continue to thrive endlessly."
"Your part-time teaching role now will greatly benefit you in advancing your teaching position in the future. If you agree, I can help you secure an Assistant Teaching position at the academy. Even a doctoral advisor starts from this role and gradually moves up."
