My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points

Chapter 972: Chapter 385: No Longer the Inexperienced Disciple—May the Storm Come Late

Every type of surgical operation has its specific purpose. Mastering one type of surgery at most makes a good assistant in operations. Only by mastering multiple types of surgery can one become the lead surgeon.

Especially for Level 3 and Level 4 major surgeries, the requirements for doctors are extremely high in every aspect.

This is also why many associate directors and director physicians, despite not lacking in medical skills, can only serve as a first or second assistant when entering the operating room.

Some directors who care about their face simply don’t enter the operating room.

Saying they’re busy and don’t have time is just an excuse.

Directors with impressive surgical skills typically maintain a rhythm of two to three surgeries a day. At their level, ordinary surgeries rarely pique their interest.

Only those that are challenging or relatively unfamiliar can spark their interest.

Zhou Can is still far from being an elite surgeon, so he refuses no task. As long as he can earn Experience Points and handle the surgery, he takes it.

Busy all the way until after six in the evening, Fu Chachun, who is on the night shift, came to take over.

Zhou Can, together with the team, completed the last surgery.

Fu Chachun had already been an attending physician three years ago.

Now, with three years gone by, he’s 49 years old. Honestly, at this age without having been promoted to an associate senior title, he’s typically in the rhythm of working until retirement as an attending physician.

He watched Zhou Can perform surgery on a patient from the side.

Gradually, his face showed a hint of astonishment, which grew heavier until it turned into a look of shock.

"I never thought that after three years, Dr. Zhou’s surgical capability has reached such an impressive level! The younger generation is truly formidable!"

Back then, Fu Chachun’s surgical skills surpassed Zhou Can’s.

Three years later, he was shocked to discover that Zhou Can’s exposed surgical skills, whether in anatomy or suturing, made him, as an attending physician, feel embarrassed.

As for his ability to stop bleeding, Zhou Can was somewhat better than Fu Chachun years ago.

Nowadays, Fu Chachun can barely understand some of Zhou Can’s hemostasis techniques.

Because the gap between them is too large.

Soon, the surgery ended, and Zhou Can asked Luo Shishen to take the patient out of the operating room.

"Dr. Zhou, with your return to our Emergency Department’s operating room, it’s hard for us not to thrive this time." When Fu Chachun spoke to Zhou Can, his expression had some flattery.

A dignified high-seniority attending physician using such a fawning tone to speak to a resident doctor.

It’s not that he lacked integrity, but rather that Zhou Can’s current strength was at a level that he had to look up to.

Strength basically represents potential and future actual status.

Fu Chachun had no hope of advancing to an associate senior title and could only work as an attending physician for life. Zhou Can’s currently exhibited strength and potential make becoming a director physician almost a certainty.

Moreover, not just a Level 3 director physician, but a Level 1 director.

There’s even a chance for him to achieve higher medical accomplishments.

Can you say Fu Chachun wouldn’t be humble when speaking to him? It’s somewhat akin to a bloodline suppression. No matter how old an ant is, it’s still an ant. Even as a baby, an elephant is still like a mountain in the eyes of an ant.

"Dr. Fu, I absolutely must treat you to a meal someday!"

Zhou Can said seriously.

"Why?"

Fu Chachun’s face showed a smile.

"You’ve almost praised me to the heavens. If I don’t treat you to a nice meal, how can that be reasonable?"

Zhou Can replied.

"Haha... Three years apart, and not only has Dr. Zhou’s medical skill advanced tremendously, I didn’t expect his conversational skills to be equally high! You pick the time, and then I’ll be the host."

Fu Chachun laughed heartily.

Back then, his relationship with Zhou Can could only be considered as acceptable, not close.

Especially when Zhou Can was once suspended, Fu Chachun’s distance made Zhou Can’s impression of him plummet.

Now Zhou Can is no longer the small preliminary training student from three years ago but has become a selected candidate for Tu Ya’s famous physician program. Fu Chachun’s high-seniority attending physician status is somewhat inadequate in front of Zhou Can.

After meeting again three years later, being able to chat pleasantly, Zhou Can did not cold-shoulder him, making Fu Chachun very happy.

"Dr. Fu, you’re generous! But I’m afraid it’s not possible lately since I have surgeries every day, then have to help in Cardiothoracic Surgery after work. I really don’t have time. Wait until I’m not so busy, then I’ll treat Dr. Fu to dinner."

Zhou Can doesn’t like attending banquets, but it depends on the circumstances.

They’re all colleagues from the Emergency Department’s operating room, and as a senior, treating Fu Chachun to a meal to foster a good relationship is quite necessary.

...

Leaving the operating room, Zhou Can turned to Qiao Yu, "How many surgeries did we do today in total?"

"I think it was twenty-one in total, with three Level 3 surgeries, seven Level 2 surgeries, and eleven Level 1 surgeries."

This achievement is quite impressive.

"We’ll see how the department calculates performance then! I still have about twenty days until the final training completion exam results come out. As of now, the hospital hasn’t signed a formal contract with me. You’re already a formal nurse, so if the department hasn’t given you surgery commissions, I’ll mention it to Director Lou."

Zhou Can personally didn’t mind much.

Because he doesn’t lack money, and a doctor’s paycheck doesn’t appeal to him at all.

Qiao Yu is different; she is just an ordinary person, relying on a salary to support her family.
