My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Chapter 1269: Chapter 499: Double Outlets in the Right Chamber, Competitor Makes a Blunder (Part 2)

The patient’s words were sharp and left no room for turning back.

Indeed, as he said, if one is truly confident in their surgical skills, why would they fear broadcasting the surgery live?

At this moment, Director Xue Yan received a phone call on her mobile.

She glanced at it and went outside to answer.

She came back shortly.

"Dr. Zhou, let’s go outside first to discuss the patient’s request to broadcast the surgery live!"

"Alright!"

Zhou Can gave the patient a deep look and followed her out.

The patient showed strong confidence on his face.

It seemed he expected the hospital to agree.

Once outside, Xue Yan directly told Zhou Can, "Vice Director Ye will be here soon. He already knows about this. I guess Dean Zhu knows too. Let’s go to the office first!"

The two had just arrived at the office when Vice Director Ye indeed arrived.

He was familiar with both Zhou Can and Director Xue Yan. After greeting them, he got straight to the point.

"Director Xue, are you confident about today’s cardiovascular intervention surgery?"

"Uh... The surgery is extremely complex, I fear we can only attempt to challenge it."

Director Xue Yan instinctively looked at Zhou Can.

Because the true surgeon for this operation was Zhou Can.

"Xiao Zhou, pulled in to join the labor force again?"

Vice Director Ye smiled at Zhou Can.

"I’m just born with a laborious life, can’t help it! When Sister Yan summons, I must come to lend a hand."

Zhou Can’s answer was standard.

"Haha, this is the typical ’the more capable the more work they do’. Tell me honestly, who is leading the surgery today?"

Vice Director Ye’s gaze swept over the two of them.

Lying in front of him would indeed be too reckless.

No one would do such a foolish thing.

By asking in front of the two of them, he also conveyed that he didn’t regard them as outsiders.

"We plan to let Zhou Can lead. His ability in interventional surgery is strong, and his intraoperative adaptability is exceptionally outstanding. Having him lead might offer some hope."

Director Xue Yan stated solemnly.

"Hmm, I’ve already guessed as much. Xiao Zhou is indeed a young elite of our hospital! Young people should venture out more, it’s a good thing." Vice Director Ye nodded, his gentle gaze fell on Zhou Can’s face. "How confident are you?"

"Very low. Probably won’t exceed thirty percent."

Zhou Can answered truthfully.

"This patient, as far as I know, has already undergone surgery at two major hospitals. These two major hospitals are no small feat. The first one is Imperial Renhe Hospital, which is the strongest hospital in the country in terms of comprehensive strength. At that time, over ten cardiovascular experts were gathered, and a four-plus-hour interventional surgery was performed, but it failed."

Vice Director Ye revealed a shocking piece of news.

It was truly unexpected that this was a patient even Renhe Hospital couldn’t succeed with.

"When the patient came, they didn’t mention being treated at other hospitals! This person is really too cunning."

Director Xue Yan felt a mix of surprise and anger upon hearing this.

If she had known that the patient had been treated at Renhe Hospital, and even the top ten or more cardiovascular experts from the capital couldn’t succeed, she would never have agreed to perform an intervention surgery for the patient.

"This situation indeed gives us a wake-up call to be particularly cautious when receiving difficult patients. The reputation of Tuya Hospital has been built over nearly a century, accumulated over generations, barely achieving today’s status. To destroy this reputation requires only one major mishap by a somewhat influential doctor at our hospital. Xinxiang Women and Children’s Hospital is a case in point. Of course, it has now risen again."

Vice Director Ye reminded the two sternly.

Xue Yan was already a famous doctor, and she was being groomed as a key figure in Thoracic Surgery.

Zhou Can was a quasi-famous doctor, yet despite being on the reserve list, he was already showing initial prowess and gaining some fame.

Whether it was in the Emergency Department or Pediatrics, patients specifically sought Zhou Can for treatment and surgery, increasing by the day.

"Apart from being treated at Renhe Hospital, this patient recently went to the Third Hospital in our city for treatment. The surgery was performed by that Japanese cardiovascular expert himself. You know, that Japanese expert is very formidable in endoscopic and interventional surgery. It’s also a major attraction of the Third Hospital. The entire surgery process was broadcast live, and unfortunately, the Third Hospital also failed."

This person is simply a troublemaker.

Even though seriously ill, he still stirs up trouble everywhere.

He first embarrassed Renhe Hospital and the Third Hospital, and now it’s Tuya Thoracic Surgery’s turn.

"That’s not right. Logically, since he already underwent surgery at Imperial Renhe Hospital and the Third Hospital in this city, both resulting in failure, why would he bother coming to our hospital for more suffering? Even if the surgery fails, the costs surely have to be paid! The patient himself also suffers a lot."

Director Xue Yan looked puzzled.

Undergoing surgery at Imperial Renhe Hospital was understandable because it’s the strongest hospital nationwide.

Later seeking treatment at the Third Hospital was because of the presence of a Japanese cardiovascular expert.

If both hospitals failed, is it necessary to seek treatment at Tuya Hospital?

No matter what, Tuya Hospital cannot possibly surpass the cardiovascular intervention treatment levels of the previous two hospitals, right?

"This is exactly what I wanted to say: According to reliable information, after the Third Hospital failed to perform surgery for this patient, they had a sneaky plan to tarnish our reputation as well. All treatment expenses for the patient this time at Tuya Hospital are covered by the Third Hospital. After the fact, a considerable ’hard work fee’ will be given to the patient. At the same time, through this live broadcast, the patient himself can gain many new fans and also enhance the loyalty of his old fans. It achieves multiple goals at once."

Vice Director Ye’s news was highly informed.

Whether it’s the Third Hospital, Provincial People’s Hospital, or even Xinxiang Hospital, any movement was hard to escape his ears.

Major hospitals are somewhat like countries sending spies to each other.

Intelligence gathering has always been of utmost importance since ancient times.

Even Sun Tzu’s Art of War says, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles.

"Since this patient is a troublemaker, I suggest directly refusing his live broadcast, or even using his body not meeting the surgical indicators as a reason to refuse the surgery and send him away."

Director Xue Yan had a strong aversion to such patients deliberately causing disturbances.

Because she has already suffered multiple setbacks.

"Xiao Zhou, what do you think?"

Vice Director Ye turned to ask Zhou Can’s opinion after listening.

"I..." Zhou Can looked at Xue Yan.

"It’s fine, just share your thoughts. We’re just discussing now."

Vice Director Ye comforted him.

"I think we don’t actually have a retreat. The surgery has already been arranged for the patient, and he has entered the intervention room. If we suddenly cancel the surgery at this time, spreading the word would only degrade Tuya Hospital’s Thoracic Surgery. The reputational loss might be even more severe than this surgery failing. A gentleman stands in the world, without trust, he cannot stand. Retrospectively speaking, even if the surgery fails, so what? Isn’t the Third Hospital and Imperial Renhe Hospital already there to take the blame for us?"

Zhou Can spoke eloquently, expressing his thoughts.

In terms of strategy, although Director Xue Yan has a much higher education background, she is far less adept than him.

Zhou Can is currently only preparing for his postgraduate studies, with written exam results still pending. Equivalent to still being an undergraduate, at best slightly stronger than an average undergraduate.

Xue Yan is a genuine doctoral graduate and is currently a professor at Tuya Medical College.

Academically, Zhou Can is indeed no match for her by miles.

"Xiao Zhou’s analysis is very thorough and spot-on. Our hospital can only advance, not retreat, this time. In my opinion, we shouldn’t let only the patient record the live broadcast. Our hospital should also record the entire surgical process. In case of failure, we can simply admit it. If successful, then we’ll publicize furiously, striving to seize this opportunity to elevate Thoracic Surgery another level. It might even give Tuya Hospital a chance to gain immense fame."

Vice Director Ye’s courage was greater than Zhou Can’s.

Isn’t it said that leaders all have immense courage like a bear and a leopard?

When acting, in addition to necessary prudence, they can be extremely bold when necessary.

Of course, some leaders are equally bold in corruption and embezzlement, with lovers exceeding a hundred and bribes amounting to tens of billions.

This crisis, for the Thoracic Surgery at Tuya Hospital, is both a challenge and an opportunity.

The Third Hospital spent money to bring in a patient to trip up Tuya Hospital, but it’s indeed a bad move, a foolish move.

While the surgical failure would cause some damage to Tuya Hospital’s reputation, it wouldn’t be too significant. However, if the surgery succeeds, the benefits could be unimaginably immense.
