Doctor of Healing

Chapter 733 Do Your Own Thing Well
Ji Xiang stood in front of the system NPC with some confusion.

The system NPC looked at him kindly.

After a long time, Ji Xiang asked, "Teacher, what should we do if we encounter such a thing?"

"no way."

No way, Jixiang's seemingly omnipotent system NPC actually gave such an answer.

"Let me ask you, is there any cure for high blood pressure in modern medicine?" asked the system NPC.

Ji Xiang shook his head.

He quickly woke up from the empathetic feeling of being lured step by step towards the cliff just now.

Yes, the vast majority of clinical diseases cannot be cured.

Why do you want to be true to yourself?
But the system NPC had a weird expression on his face, and he scratched his head, kind of cute.

It was the first time that Jixiang saw the system NPC with such an expression, and he was taken aback.

"Actually, many diseases have the possibility of being cured."

"???"

The diversion of the topic made Ji Xiang feel overwhelmed.

"It's my feeling, but there's no evidence. You know, I'm in clinical practice, not basic research." The system NPC said, "Let's go, let's have a chat."

When he came to the locker room, the NPC of the system took out the box of white ganoderma that Ji Xiang bought for him, took out one, hesitated for a few minutes, but then stuffed the cigarette back.

"Teacher, what do you mean by treatment?"

"Suppose, you are the major shareholder of a pharmaceutical company, and a researcher submits a report, saying that he has discovered a possibility—high blood pressure can be cured by oral medication, what should you do?"

Ji Xiang thought for a while and understood the meaning of the system NPC.

What the researchers put forward is a possibility that will require massive capital investment in the later stage.But it can cure people's high blood pressure. This medicine can be sold for a few years at most. When no one needs it, it can be thrown into the garbage dump.

It is an exaggeration to say that the garbage dump is still an exaggeration, but a substantial price reduction is inevitable because there is no demand.

If we only understand this matter from the perspective of making money, then it is in the best interests of the pharmaceutical company to reduce the efficacy of the medicine, take it, and commit a crime if you don’t take it, and you need to take medicine for a lifetime.

For example, the medicine for tuberculosis, which was terminally ill back then, is extremely cheap now.

Thinking about it!
Ji Xiang was speechless.

"What I'm talking about is just a possibility. You don't need to think too much. We are just clinicians, equivalent to soldiers rushing to the front line. We will use whatever weapons are given by the researchers at the Weapons Research Institute."

"Teacher, but..."

"Ham, I can't think too much about many things." The system NPC smiled, "Don't say it's you, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to do a few things. Behind every seemingly unreasonable thing, there is a deep contradiction. "

Ji Xiang nodded.

He remembered a few things his old man had told him intentionally or unintentionally.

Just like a system NPC, my old man is helpless about many things.

"It's good enough to do what you can do well." The system NPC said, "This empathy is what we discussed in a meeting, and finally voted to add it. To be honest, similar situations don't mean much to doctors. But I think it should exist."

"Many years ago, Zhou Congwen met a patient. He left early and returned late to earn money to support his family. Suddenly, a disaster struck him, and he was hit by a drunk driver who had been drinking all night."

"Multiple rib fractures on both sides and aortic dissection. The most important thing is that both parties in the car accident have no money. The party responsible would rather be sentenced than spend so much money to treat the injured."

With that said, the system NPC looked at Jixiang.

"Surgery shouldn't be difficult." Ji Xiang said.

During the empathy he experienced when he absorbed Yangshou, he followed Zhou Congwen to learn cardiac surgery and interventional surgery.

For the current Ji Xiang, similar operations are indeed not difficult.

Unless it is some special circumstances, such as elephant nose surgery.

But even if it is an elephant nose operation, Jixiang is sure to win it.

"A large frame costs 10,000+. When I was first involved in this type of surgery, I often joked that the next large frame is equivalent to driving a car."

Ji Xiang sighed.

He is not sensitive to money. Although he always hears people say similar things, he still can't empathize with him.

What moved Ji Xiang the most was the scene where the student with kidney stones fell down with the delicious food from the school cafeteria and was reluctant to throw away the food.

But he experienced little.

"Teacher, what happened next? How did Professor Zhou do it?"

"The patient is automatically discharged."

"!!!" Ji Xiang was stunned.

"We are just screws, there are woolly solutions." The system NPC said, "He has a little doctor who used his own money to pay the hospitalization fees for the patients, but the salary is not enough. It can only be regarded as dedication."

"So, don't think too much about many things, save those who can be saved, and do your duty well..."

The system NPC then chattered for ten minutes.

Although Ji Xiang didn't feel disgusted by this kind of indoctrination, he couldn't listen to a word.

He pretended to listen carefully to the system NPC, but his mind wandered, and he didn't listen to a word at all.

When the system NPC had enough nagging, Ji Xiang said goodbye and left.

When he returned to the emergency department and saw Meng Qingfei, Ji Xiang felt like he had a dream.

Even Meng Qingfei was unreal.

"Mr. Meng, did the patient undergo surgery?" Ji Xiang asked.

"I told you to say that, you must have an operation." Meng Qingfei said with a smile.

Looking at Meng Qingfei's smiling face, Ji Xiang was a little puzzled.

"Teacher Meng, what are you laughing at?"

"Such a troublesome patient, let's hurry up and send her away. Who knows why she went crazy, she stays with us, and there will be problems every minute." Meng Qingfei said.

"???"

Ji Xiang could probably understand what Meng Qingfei meant, but he couldn't agree or accept it.

"Tell you a story."

"Ah."

"It wasn't long before I started working, and Master took care of me. One day, Master and I met a similar patient, so I won't tell you the details."

"His injury was not that serious, so he stayed in the emergency department for observation. The main reason was that the extra beds in the orthopedic department were full at that time, so he couldn't get in."

“Orthopedics in Dog Day!”

Meng Qingfei cursed.

"I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. The hallway was empty. I saw bloodstains on the ground. I was shocked."

"It turned out that the patient who jumped from the building crawled to the treatment room, found a blade and cut the radial artery."

"..."

Ji Xiang was silent.

"Later, because of this incident, my master was suspended for three months."

"What does it have to do with the doctor?" Ji Xiang complained.

"The blame man, do you really think that there are so many people dumping the blame in the clinic now, and they are willing to dump it? Isn't it caused by the leaders in the hospital putting shit bowls on the heads of the front-line doctors and nurses when they have something to do?"

Ji Xiang seemed to understand, but he was not in a hurry, so he wrote down what Meng Qingfei said.

The two chatted for a while, and when a patient with appendicitis came, Meng Qingfei drove Ji Xiang home to sleep.
