Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital

Chapter 304: Pick the Right Leader!


Back at the ward, in the office, Liu Meng was writing medical orders when Zhao Heng entered and said to Liu Meng, "I'm going over to Professor Li Hongwei's lab at Yanjing University this afternoon. Keep an eye on this patient's condition at all times, and if there's any change, call me immediately."

"Alright."

Liu Meng nodded.

"Dr. Zhao, why the sudden visit to Professor Li Hongwei?"

After pausing, Liu Meng questioned with some curiosity.

"With the patient's current condition, the existing treatment methods can at most stabilize the situation; as for a cure, it's unlikely. Earlier, when I was reading some literature, I found a case abroad where a patient infected with Fusarium was cured. The patient also had early-stage skin cancer, and the attending physician used Mitifoxin, which unexpectedly had a therapeutic effect."

"So I'm thinking whether we can also use Mitifoxin for our patient, but given the current situation, we need a more direct and effective way of administration, and in this regard, I thought of Professor Li Hongwei's research on nanotherapy."

Zhao Heng explained. Now Liu Meng has also become a core doctor in the ward. Although Wang Tao is also diligent, there is still a gap in clinical thinking compared to Liu Meng.

This professional quality and capability can be developed, but clinical thinking might not be something that can be cultivated.

This is also a key factor in determining how far a doctor's career can go, so after Liu Meng showed excellent clinical thinking, Zhao Heng had high hopes for Liu Meng.

"This sounds very feasible, Dr. Zhao, you're really impressive."

Liu Meng pondered. In the clinical setting, such things happen from time to time – a drug may be researched for a long time, and then by chance, people discover it can treat other diseases.

The mechanism of action of each drug in the human body is extremely complex, and current pharmacological research can only clarify a part of it.

"It was just a chance discovery. Oh, there's another thing, Dr. Li Yang from the Emergency Department is also being transferred to the ward. He might come over later, and when Dr. Li arrives, Dr. Liu, please introduce him to the ward situation for me."

Zhao Heng instructed Liu Meng further.

Liu Meng also came from the Emergency Department, so she must be familiar with Li Yang.

Speaking of which, now the three doctors in the ward, Wang Tao, Liu Meng, and Li Yang, who is being transferred today, all came from the Emergency Department.

Is the Emergency Department really so challenging that these technically skilled and diligent doctors all want to leave?

Zhao Heng couldn't help but think to himself.

If it was just one emergency doctor wanting to transfer, it could be seen as a personal choice, but if it's happening repeatedly, it suggests that the Emergency Department at Eastern Hospital might really not be the great place everyone thought it was.

If it's due to high work intensity, it doesn't make sense, because both ICU, the Intensive Care Unit, and Pediatrics have workloads that are no less than the Emergency department.

But you don't see doctors from these departments looking to transfer.

"Li Yang? He's transferring to the ward too?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Meng was surprised. Li Yang is Song Siming's absolute trusted aide in the Emergency Department; how could he be leaving?

This was quite unexpected.

"Yes, it's arranged by the director."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"Director's arrangement? As far as I know, the director isn't someone who forces such transfers, so it must be Li Yang himself who approached the director to request the transfer."

Liu Meng thought for a moment and said. Clearly, what she thought was in line with Zhao Heng's thoughts – it's something everyone could see.

"Yes, that's what I think too."

Zhao Heng replied. This kind of thing is almost out in the open.

However, Li Yang has been in the Emergency Department for so many years, spending so much time and effort, and just leaving like this is equivalent to giving up all that effort, which is why Zhao Heng found it strange.

"Actually, it's not surprising. The Emergency Department is, how should I put it? No matter how much effort you put in, it seems like it's for nothing."

Liu Meng sighed a little. If the Emergency Department wasn't what she described, she wouldn't have chosen to come to the ward.

Otherwise, advancing to an attending physician, despite the hardships in the Emergency Department, would be worth it for the experience gained.

Like her previous situation, the hardships aside, there was no hope, making it unbearable.

"Is it really that bad?"

Zhao Heng remarked, surprised. When he worked in the operating room as an instrument assistant, it was genuinely tough, but that was because he was a temp; in every place, temps are treated like that, so it was expected.

But Liu Meng is a formally employed doctor, and if she feels the same way, it indicates there's a real problem there.

"It's not exaggerated at all, Dr. Zhao. You don't know, but since I joined the ward, several doctors from the Emergency Department have told me they're envious of my current work environment."

Liu Meng chuckled. Working in Zhao Heng's ward not only means less workload compared to the Emergency Department, but the benefits haven't decreased either. In fact, because there are currently fewer doctors in the ward, the benefits have even improved.

The key point is, in this ward, people like the director and major players like Gao Jun have always been attentive. Simply put, there's backing, and the resources are excellent.

For instance, coordinating with the inspection departments and the operating room is much easier here compared to other departments, especially the Emergency Department.

This is understandable, as departments like Radiology and Laboratory are basically under the director's control. In the case of the operating room, the chief is Dr. Zhao's girlfriend Xu Man Ni's uncle. With this relationship, and Xu Man Ni currently running for head nurse of the operating room, it's quite simple for Zhao Heng to coordinate the operating room resources, like scheduling a surgery.

Unlike doctors in other departments, who sometimes have to wait several days to get a slot when the operating room is busy, unless it's an emergency surgery.

It's not unusual for some people in the same hospital to have a smoother experience than others.

Therefore, no matter where people are, they all want to follow a good leader. Being with the right person would make life much easier in the future and bring plenty of benefits.

"Once Dr. Li Yang joins, along with me, we will have four doctors, which should be enough for now."

Zhao Heng thought for a moment before speaking.

With four doctors, they could form a small team, and with future training and intern doctors also joining the ward,

including him, there could be seven or eight people, making a small and efficient team.

As for expanding or becoming stronger, Zhao Heng felt he might not have the time or energy for that. He had software to develop, tasks at Professor Li Hongwei's lab, and graduate studies to consider – this small but efficient medical team was more suitable for Zhao Heng's ambitions.
