I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 69 There is an iceberg in my heart

The journey is short, Zhou Qiao doesn't have time to think so much, because the testing center has arrived!
Danielle is not out of danger, so Zhou Qiao must accompany her.

Otherwise, Elena, Cathy, and Danielle are either women, or the old and weak, and the weak ones are still patients who are in danger of life at any time, how can he rest assured?
He followed, and if there was a problem, he could deal with it in time.

Moreover, on the streets of San Francisco, 90% of the intersections have no traffic lights. To go to the testing center, they have to cross the road and push a hospital bed.

This hospital bed, carrying a ventilator, etc., is itself very heavy. If there is a downhill road, Elena and Cathy can't handle it at all!

If you are hit by a car, it will be another tragedy!
So Zhou Qiao had to escort her personally.

If it is in other clinics, sorry, the attending doctor will personally accompany you, which will be charged and very expensive.

Well, some serious illnesses, the attending doctor came to check the room, and a bill of [-] dollars was generated!The psychiatrist came to chat with him for a while, to ease the patient's anxiety, and gave a small toy or gift that was worthless. Sorry, the bill of $[-] came again!

The rehabilitation therapist accompanied the training for half an hour, sorry, the $[-] bill came again!

In Zhou Qiao's place, unnecessary and not very important operations are all free!Or, just collect a few hundred dollars symbolically, and just mean it.

It is the conscience of the industry!

Even so, Zhou Qiao felt quite profitable!Recently, the profit of the clinic has been soaring, and the monthly income is almost breaking $[-]!Not counting the ones given by Roya, just serious clinic patients.

It is worth mentioning that many patients from the Red-headed Gull Clinic have also been transferred to the Iris Clinic for follow-up.

The business is getting better and better, and Zhou Qiao's mood is also getting better and better, but he is a bit too busy.Recruitment is imminent.

Arriving at the commercial testing center, Zhou Qiao took little Danielle to do a CT. Sure enough, a high-density shadow appeared from the distal end of the trachea to the entrance of the right main bronchus, and there was a foreign body!

This requires surgery. With Zhou Qiao's knowledge, laryngoscopy under general anesthesia + bronchoscopy + removal of foreign bodies in the right lung is not a problem.

Because after accumulating these days, his medical mystery point balance once again broke through the 100 mark!There are 113 points!
Exchange for a master level, only 15 points, 98 points left!
He doesn't pursue the perfect level now, unless very special surgical skills, such as debridement and sutures, are used a lot, or the difficulty is very high, and a little carelessness will cause major problems.

As for the others, master-level ones are more than enough to deal with common illnesses.

This surgery, Zhou Qiao thought, could also be done in a clinic, but a general anesthesia surgery required an anesthesiologist, so Ava contacted the community hospitalist. Andre happened to be free after 03 p.m., so he asked him to come over at 30:[-].

With the video report and little Danielle, Zhou Qiao and his party returned to the Iris Clinic.

Poor Cathy, haven't had lunch yet.Elena didn't eat either.On the way back, I bought some bread and milk, and Elena and Cathy made do with it.

After returning to the clinic, Zhou Qiao helped push the hospital bed up to the second floor and exchange it with the bed in a ward. Elena and Ava were intensively preparing for the operation, while Cathy accompanied the poor little Danielle in the ward.

Zhou Qiao came downstairs, and Murphy was still sitting quietly in the rest area reading a book.

"Professor Parsons told me about you, saying that you might come in a few days, but I didn't expect to arrive so soon! Thank you for your help today, the endotracheal intubation is done very well." Zhou Qiao said with a slight smile.

According to his experience evaluation, this is still the professional level in the system.

Murphy still had a pretty face, but she came here to ask Zhou Qiao for advice, and she was not allowed to leave until she achieved her goal.

Therefore, Murphy mustered up his courage, looked up at Zhou Qiao, shrugged his shoulders very rarely, and said, "This is actually the first time I have operated in person."

Zhou Qiao looked surprised, and said very sincerely: "As expected, he is indeed the genius doctor that Professor Parsons mentioned to me, and he was so strong the first time he did it!"

If there is no system and purely relying on his own ability, Zhou Qiao still has self-knowledge. It is his first time to do it, at most entry-level.

After Zhou Qiao's words of praise came out, Murphy remained calm and unmoved on the surface, but the golden virtual panel popped up again in Zhou Qiao's mind.

[The host's own charm +2 is passively triggered again, and Murphy's favorability is +2, and the current favorability is 54! 】

Zhou Qiao: "..." What the hell?Favorability increased so quickly?Wouldn't it be possible in a few days...

He was a little guilty, and also felt that it was unreliable. How could a cold girl like Murphy be like that... Besides, it was too... a bit scumbag for me to think about that when we met for the first time.

Zhou Qiao felt that he was quite a scum, since he had this system.

"I heard that you have graduated with a doctor of medicine, where do you plan to work?" Zhou Qiao sat down and chatted without saying a word.

Murphy was silent for a moment, but still answered, and said softly, "I haven't found it yet." Thinking of this, she felt worried.The other classmates or the juniors in the lower grades were all looking at her and making fun of her.

Zhou Qiao then comforted: "19-year-old medical doctor, you should be the most powerful medical student I have ever seen. If you can't do it, you can open your own clinic like me. Well, my clinic is inherited from me. Auntie. But it is not difficult to open a clinic in the United States, if you need any help, you can ask me.”

After so many days, Zhou Qiao has long been familiar with the process of opening a clinic in the United States.

Especially for new clinics, if you choose a hospital to be affiliated with, there is even a subsidy.

The last time he went to negotiate a contract with a community hospital, he learned that the community hospital will receive about $15 a year in subsidy for two years.If it is affiliated with the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center, there will be about 20 dollars in funding per year, which can also be taken for two years.

Unfortunately, Iris Clinic has long been affiliated with these two hospitals and has been open for many years, so it does not meet the conditions for receiving subsidies.

The staff of the community hospital told him that as early as ten years ago, the Iris Clinic had received subsidies from them, so it is not acceptable now.

Murphy suddenly looked embarrassed and remained silent.

She murmured in her heart, open a clinic?How can it be so easy, do you think everyone is proficient in so many complicated operations like you?I mean I have an advantage in theoretical knowledge, but my hands-on ability is really far behind Dr. Zhou and you!

Thinking of this, she suddenly had a thought in her heart, that is, if she could stay in the Iris Clinic and practice here, wouldn't she be able to learn skills from Dr. Zhou every day?

As for opening a clinic, she doesn't think about it. Firstly, her hands-on ability is not good enough for the time being, and all kinds of medical experience are not rich enough. Secondly, opening a clinic is too troublesome, and there are too many and complicated things to deal with. Patients, communication with patients is a problem, how to deal with those chores?

She looked up at the handsome and charming Chinese doctor in front of her, and couldn't help asking what she wanted from the bottom of her heart: "Doctor Zhou, are you recruiting interns here?"

As soon as she said the words, she felt anxious, feeling that she was too abrupt. When she felt embarrassed, her face became more serious, and her whole person suddenly gave off a feeling like a cold iceberg.

Zhou Qiao felt her emotional fluctuations and thought to herself, Murphy is really different.If it had been anyone else, after making such a request, they would have smiled or smiled expectantly, hoping that the other party would agree.

But Murphy...he refused first!
