I Can Hear the Heart's Voice of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Chapter 72: Young Man Visiting Family at the Hospital? (2/3)


After all, given the other party's status, any slight stir at the Ninth Hospital would certainly not escape Wu Liguo's notice.

"Remember, is there a problem?"

Wu Liguo explained, "There is no problem. I've heard about the incident. It was quite fortunate that the patient happened to meet Dr. Lu on the bus.

However, after examination and emergency treatment, by the evening, the patient still showed no signs of waking up. If this drags on, there might be a risk of paralysis. Old Ye from neurology asked me to see if you're available to come to the Ninth Hospital tonight for a consultation.

Of course, we will certainly provide the expert fee as appropriate. Rest assured on this.

If you're willing, give me an address, and I'll immediately send a car to pick you up."

At this point, Wu Liguo added, "Of course, if you have any concerns, it's okay. If there's really no other way, we could have the patient discharged and sent over to the Health Center to find you, but this would be burdensome for the patient's family. Moving the patient back and forth also increases risks. If there's any massive cerebral hemorrhage, there won't be enough time for rescue."

Although Wu Liguo spoke tactfully, Lu Xuan naturally understood what he meant by concerns.

It's simply that if he went to the Ninth Hospital for a Flying Knife and accepted a fee, some uninformed family members might turn against him, causing trouble.

But the Flying Knife, in fact, benefits the patient, the hospital, and the Flying Knife doctor.

The patient doesn't need to be discharged, and the patient's family doesn't have to rush around with them, saving quite a bit compared to the fee; for the hospital, it gains a reputation; as for the Flying Knife doctor, it's even more beneficial, earning both reputation and money—why not?

Moreover, the key point is, if you refuse this time, they might not invite you again next time.

It's not that Lu Xuan values the Flying Knife money, but in large hospitals, there's exposure to more complex cases, allowing better personal growth.

"Director Wu, I accept. As for sending someone to pick me up, it won't be necessary. I'll go upstairs to grab something and take a cab over." In the face of such benefits, Lu Xuan couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

Moreover, being invited for a Flying Knife means high recognition of your skills.

For any doctor, this counts as a special honor.

Many doctors even wish that other hospitals would invite them for Flying Knives.

Why?

Isn't it because only by doing so can one enhance their reputation?

However, even though he had agreed, Lu Xuan still laid out the facts upfront, "But, Director Wu, I know a bit about the patient's condition, I can't guarantee recovery."

Wu Liguo quickly said, "Don't worry about that, Dr. Lu. Stroke, fainting, and hemiplegia are life-threatening conditions; no one can guarantee a cure—we understand that.

As for the fee, I haven't discussed it with Old Ye, but based on previous hospital rates, 2000 RMB should be attainable. If it involves lectures, it's also about 2000, other matters will be discussed separately. As for cab fares, we can reimburse you. How does that sound?"

A consultation fee of 2000 isn't much for well-known doctors, but for Lu Xuan, it's quite significant.

He is currently only a practicing physician, not even an attending physician, and is consulting at the Health Center. It's rather generous for the Ninth Hospital to offer this fee.

For Lu Xuan, this truly is a considerable income.

Moreover, if not for Wu Liguo and others knowing about him through Wang Youqing, they wouldn't have invited a Health Center doctor to the Ninth Hospital for a Flying Knife!

Being able to earn around two thousand quickly, Lu Xuan naturally agreed, saying, "Alright, I've just reached home, I'll be there soon."

"By the way, Dr. Lu, the Ninth Hospital is currently practicing integrated Chinese and Western medicine. For now, we've only taken in a few TCM interns. When you're treating the patient, can I have them observe as well?" Wu Liguo didn't want to miss such a great opportunity.

Although he hadn't seen Lu Xuan's medical skills first-hand, his reputation clearly demonstrated Lu Xuan's exceptional abilities.

At this moment, having those rookies listen in would certainly be beneficial.

"No problem, we can exchange ideas too." Lu Xuan was very humble.

...

The conversation quickly ended, and Wu Liguo immediately called on the few interns in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine department, who lived nearby, to come over promptly.

As expected, upon hearing that a remarkable TCM doctor would perform a Flying Knife at the Ninth Hospital, the interns were overjoyed.

They had been at the Ninth Hospital for a while, yet the integrated department still lacked an attending doctor, making it hard to learn anything substantial.

Such a great opportunity couldn't be missed!

So they all put down their work and headed straight to the Ninth Hospital.

Spending time with girlfriends?

At this moment, women were obstacles, only hindering their learning speed.

Lu Xuan wasted no time, quickly walked into his apartment, grabbed his needle box, and hurried downstairs, booking a ride-sharing service along the way.

He knew a bit about Li Yuanyuan's condition, which wasn't good. He hadn't mentioned much in the morning, primarily to avoid troubles, but now that the Ninth Hospital had invited him for a Flying Knife, this was no longer an issue.

When he reached downstairs, a ride-share car just pulled up by the roadside.

He got in, reported the location, and the car swiftly drove towards the Ninth Hospital.
