I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 91 Consent to Surgery
"How about, Doctor Zhou, I will discuss it with my wife and I will reply you another day." Mr. de la Torre said.

However, he was really in severe pain, so he said, "Can you help me arrange an infusion first to relieve the pain?"

Zhou Qiao said, "Yes."

Immediately, corresponding antibiotics and other drugs were prescribed, and Elena was asked to take her to the infusion room to arrange the infusion.

Zhou Qiao pondered for a while, and spent 15 medical mystery points in exchange for the master-level knowledge and skills related to diverticular disease.

First of all, the medical mysterious point is quite rich now, the little baby is very well-behaved, and the supplies are quite convenient.

Secondly, Yiduo does not overwhelm her body.

Thirdly, if he wants to convince Mr. de la Torre, he must have a very good understanding of this disease, be able to talk eloquently, and convince them with his professional knowledge in a simple and profound way!
Soon, after expending 15 points of medical mystery and remaining 97 points in the account balance, master-level knowledge and skills related to diverticular disease came to the fore.

The kind that works instantly without having to study or practice!
Including etiology, symptoms, diagnostic methods and indicators, types of diseases that are easily confused and misdiagnosed, types, corresponding treatment methods, surgical skills, preventive measures, and daily precautions, etc.

Then, Zhou Qiao went to the infusion room and chatted with the de la Torres.

It just so happened that Mr. de la Torre also had a lot of doubts, so Zhou Qiao took advantage of the opportunity to explain in detail, trying to answer in a way that the other party could understand.

The de la Torre couple admired Zhou Qiao's profound knowledge very much.

It's just that they still haven't given a clear answer, whether they agree to undergo surgery here.

Zhou Qiao was also not good at "forcing", and then another patient came to see him, so he returned to the consulting room.

After the infusion, Mr. de la Torre's pain relieved a lot. On the way home, they met the Westin couple again.

When the Westins asked, Mr. de la Torre told the story.

"So it's not appendicitis." Mr. Westin was also a little surprised, and said, "I don't know much about this disease."

In fact, this disease is not uncommon in the United States, but Mr. Westin and Mr. de la Torre have not been exposed to it, so they don't know.

Mr. de la Torre smiled wryly: "Yes, the operation is probably a relatively large operation. Dr. Zhou's appendicitis operation is okay, but I don't know what kind of diverticular disease operation it is."

Mr. Westin laughed.

"Why are you laughing?" Mr. de la Torre asked, raising his eyebrows.

Mr. Westin shrugged and said, "Although I don't know medicine, how do you think your disease compares to a serious cancer like pancreatic cancer?"

Mr. de la Torre was startled, but immediately shook his head and said, "It's absolutely impossible, it can't be worse than cancer!"

Mrs. de la Torre also said: "That's right, Mr. Westin, don't scare us!"

Mr. Westin spread his hands and said: "You misunderstood me! I mean, this disease is far less serious than cancer. But do you know? I have a friend, Mrs. Clark, who has a pancreas. Cancer, and guess what?"

"What's the matter?"

"Hey, she underwent radical surgery for pancreatic cancer at Dr. Zhou's, and she's recovering pretty well now!"

"seriously?"

"so smart?"

Mr. Westin took out his mobile phone, opened the Twitter app, and showed Mrs. Clark's account dynamics to the de la Torres!
"I posted this myself, I didn't make it up."

Mrs. Clark "lived after the disaster", so she posted a lot of recent developments and thoughts on Twitter, as well as some photos of walking, daily housework and baking.

Naturally, she continued to undergo chemotherapy for consolidation after the operation, and then she had regular follow-up visits at the Iris Clinic.Just yesterday, I went to Zhou Qiao's for a checkup.

Have to say, recovery is pretty good.

In fact, in the United States, cancer is not that scary. Almost [-]% of cancer patients can be "cured". The five-year survival rate is extremely high. After treatment, some cancer patients live longer than some patients with chronic diseases.

This is because most of the new anti-cancer drugs come from the United States.

Perhaps, in terms of outpatient clinics and surgeries, the United States is not as good as China because of its population base, but in terms of new drug research and development, it absolutely crushes China.Even India surpasses China.

Of course, Indian pharmaceutical companies are relatively shameless and often adopt patent challenge strategies, that is, by studying the drug patents of multinational companies, finding loopholes and suing their patents for invalidity or by avoiding the scope of patent protection to synthesize drugs.

India is the world's largest generic drug country, and "I'm Not the God of Medicine" demonstrates the magic of generic drugs in the country.

Often, when European and American pharmaceutical companies invest a lot of scientific research funds and develop new drugs through multiple clinical trials, Indian generic drug manufacturers take advantage of the opportunity and take advantage of it. They can copy them in just three months or even less, and the price is ultra-low. , less than one-tenth of the new drugs in Europe and the United States.

The most shameless thing is that the Indian official has also given great support.The euphemistic name is: life is far more important than property!I mean, it doesn’t matter if you lose a little money, many lives have been saved here!

In the end, we have reached a win-win situation with Europe, America and other countries!
Maybe, sometimes we can't be too virtuous.

Although the United States has many new drugs against pancreatic cancer, including SM-88 for end-stage patients, Mrs. Clark is recovering so well now, mainly thanks to the early detection.

At least there are currently no signs of recurrence or metastasis. If there is no recurrence within five years, the possibility of recurrence is basically relatively small.

But the diagnosis rate of this disease is very low in the early stage. I have to say that Mrs. Clark is very lucky!

Zhou Qiao's advice to her was to come back for review every three months within five years. Even if there is recurrence and metastasis, it can be nipped in the bud.

The Clarks think so. Anyway, paying so much medical insurance every month is not in vain.After five years, reduce the frequency of follow-up visits.

The de la Torre couple learned from Mr. Westin that Iris Clinic can even perform radical surgery for malignant tumors such as pancreatic cancer. The surgical level is simply...comparable to the University of California Medical Center!

After they went back, they thought carefully and discussed carefully, and finally decided to perform the operation at the Iris Clinic.

Otherwise, you can only go to the University of California Medical Center, but the cost of the University of California Medical Center is definitely more expensive than the Iris Clinic!
The next day, they came to the Iris Clinic again and asked for an operation.

Zhou Qiao was very happy and introduced Murphy to them!
"Doctor Zhou, are you kidding us?"

Seeing Murphy's childish face, the de la Torre couple were shocked. If Dr. Zhou is the surgeon, we can accept it. After all, we have a past record. However, it would be a little bit to let such a young girl do the surgery... My son doesn't respect people very much.
