Chapter 80 Free Clinic
Phoenix Airport.

Moratti walked out of the airport with his assistant.

The head of the public relations department of one of his family's branches in Arizona received them and drove them to the hotel together.

After flying to the United States, Moratti went to see Ronaldo immediately.

Ronaldo was not in a hurry to come to Phoenix, but went to Washington first because Jordan was with the Wizards and he was chasing stars.

After the meeting, after confirming that this was really Ronaldo's own idea, what could Moratti say.

In his heart, he is the old father of the big Inter Milan family. Everyone on the team is a child of this family. If the child is sick and needs surgery, then he should do it.

But Moratti wants to examine Chen Yu carefully, at least to know whether Chen Yu's medical skills are as good as Branchini said.

"Sco." Moratti looked at the head of the public relations department: "You have been in the United States for a long time. Do you think this Chen is a powerful doctor?"

Sco is also Italian, but he has been in the United States for a long time and works in media and public relations, so he has a better understanding of the situation in the United States.

He thought for a while and said: "Sir, this Chen has been very famous in the American sports world recently. He is relatively young and has not very high qualifications, but he seems to be a genius and his medical skills are particularly good."

"If this were not the case, he would not be able to gain the trust of Hill and Hardaway, especially Hardaway. His condition is very bad. I read the news later. Many American orthopedic experts said that Hardaway's surgery was a very difficult operation. surgery."

"This is what I know about the situation." Sco didn't dare to express his position and threw the question back.

Moratti nodded. After coming to the United States, he also collected media information and studied it carefully.

As Sco said, Chen Yu has junior qualifications and is young.

However, Chen Yu's ability to treat Hill and Hardaway is incredible in itself.

If they didn't have great trust in Chen Yu's medical skills, with their status as Hill, they would never choose an unknown person like Chen Yu to treat themselves.

Not to mention, Chen Yu is now the official head of the NBA's player health management department.

"Let's take a look." Moratti said noncommittally.

After arriving at the hotel and taking a short rest, Moratti received news that Chen Yu was conducting a free clinic at the arena.

"Come on, let's go and see."

Moratti had been preparing to get in touch with Chen Yu, but now was a good opportunity to observe.

The group set off and headed to Mercy Arena.

The free clinic is located outside the American West Arena.

Before arriving at Mercy Arena, the car was already blocked.

"Why are there so many people?" Moratti said in surprise.

Sco thought for a while and said: "Sir, it is very troublesome to see a doctor in the United States. You have to make an appointment in advance and then have to wait for a long time. I had a toothache before and made an appointment with the contracted family doctor. He said it was not good and asked me to go to a specialist hospital. , but it took a long time to make an appointment, and when it was my turn, my teeth no longer hurt.”

"So it's very troublesome to see outpatients here, and it's even more difficult to make appointments for experts like Chen. It should be for this reason that a large number of people come to see doctors."

Not only because of the free clinic, it’s free.

The most important thing is that ordinary people don't have the opportunity to come into contact with experts like Chen Yu.

Moratti understood and couldn't help but complain: "That's similar to Europe."

Medical treatment in Europe is also slow.

For many minor illnesses, we go to private clinics, but there is a lot of private insurance, which is more convenient.

Further ahead, there were police officers maintaining order and directing cars to park in surrounding parking lots.

"Let's walk over."

Moratti is not here to see a doctor, just go over and check on the situation.

Several people got off.

Moratti also noticed that Suns staff were handing out numbers for the queue. He thought for a while and asked his assistant to get a number for him, and then went to the queue. He took Sco and the bodyguard to the arena. Go.

There are really many people, not just ordinary people, but also a large number of homeless people.

Because it not only provides free clinics, but also distributes benefits.

Fortunately, there were a large number of police officers maintaining order, and the scene was still orderly.

Moratti and the others didn't even seek medical advice, so they just walked forward and soon arrived at the American West Arena.

The free clinic is located in the square in front of the American West Arena.

Moratti saw several tall Suns players at a glance, helping to maintain order at the scene.

The team must support community charity activities.

Several water fountain managers were sent over.

And Kidd.

It was Chen Yu who specifically asked Kidd to come over. What a great thing, it can help Kidd change his bad image.

Moratti also saw Chen Yu, just on one side of the square, making diagnosis with the assistance of several staff members, and there were cameras filming nearby.

Moratti didn't step forward and couldn't get through. Fortunately, he was not far away and could even hear the voices.

Since it is a free clinic, there is no need to worry about privacy and environment.

When he arrived, Chen Yu was diagnosing a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes.

"The left shoulder is dislocated, right?" Chen Yu looked at the middle-aged man.

Jeans, plaid shirt, messy hair and beard, very standard American lower-class workers' attire.

The middle-aged man nodded: "I just lost my job not long ago, and then my medical insurance was also interrupted. When I was repairing the roof yesterday, I accidentally fell it and now I can't move my arms."

Chen Yu got up and stepped forward to check.

For middle-aged people, you can actually go to the emergency room for manual rehabilitation. If that doesn't work, you can have surgery.

But his medical insurance was cut off, and the expense of going to the emergency room would have cost him at least a year.

"It's not a big problem, it's just a little swollen." After all, it took a day.

Chen Yu grabbed his arm: "Byron, hold his body."

Nelson and the others were also captured by the team to help.

Byron Howard stepped forward and hugged the middle-aged man tightly.

"It hurts a little. Let me count one, two, three."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and looked a little panicked.

"One, two..."

There was a crisp sound, and Chen Yu grabbed his arm and pulled and pushed violently.

The middle-aged man screamed, didn't he count to three as promised?

"Okay, let's try moving your shoulders." Chen Yu stopped.

The middle-aged man moved his shoulders in surprise, and was surprised to find that his arms could move.

"I'm fine." He said with ecstasy on his face.

Chen Yu sat down again, wrote a prescription slip, handed it to him, and shouted to Kidd: "Next one."

The middle-aged man stood up and bowed excitedly to thank him.

His illness is not serious, but if he goes to the hospital, he won't be able to get there without $[-].

But now, without spending a penny, you are optimistic about it.

It can be said that Chen Yu saved his poor family with just a push and a pull.

"No need." Chen Yu smiled and waved his hands. Joint reset was considered [sports medicine] experience, and it was also the experience he needed to gain the most.

Looking down at the next patient, it was a woman walking over with a limp.

Chen Yu knew the reason after just one glance.

The fracture of the tibia, also known as the facing bone, should be caused by an impact.

"Do you have medical insurance?" Chen Yu asked her while asking her to sit down for a physical examination.

The woman didn't answer the question: "I was hit by a bicycle. The guy ran away. The police couldn't find him, and no one cared about me."

Chen Yu glanced at a policeman standing guard a few meters away and thought to himself, you'd better consider yourself unlucky for something like this.

That means there is no medical insurance.

After going through the physical examination process, Chen Yu said: "You are very lucky. There is no fracture, just a crack. I will fix it with a plaster and rest for a month. You should be fine."

There is no need to shoot the film.

In fact, if she had medical insurance, she could have sent him directly to St. Luke's Hospital to take the X-ray.

Chen Yu has already made an agreement with St. Luke's and three other hospitals in the city that all relevant examinations can be done there. If the condition is serious, he will be admitted directly and Chen Yu will do the surgery.

"Do you want money?" The woman looked at Chen Yu anxiously.

"Need not."

It's just a little plaster. It's a charity event in the first place, and the simple consumables are all paid for by the team.

He quickly put a plaster on the woman, prescribed medicine, and sent her away.

The whole process only takes 10 minutes.

Normally, in her situation, if she didn't go to the emergency room and made an appointment at the outpatient clinic, it might take a month to see a doctor, and she would end up with a plaster.

Of course, small clinics can also handle it, but the problem is still the same and the charges are high.

In short, it is really troublesome to not have medical insurance. Many people have minor illnesses that turn into serious illnesses and even become disabled.

The next one was a young man who came here with gauze wrapped around his head due to trauma.

This free clinic is said to focus on orthopedic diseases, but simple trauma can also be treated.

In his situation, he probably didn't have medical insurance and didn't dare go to the emergency room.

Although the law stipulates that you must be treated when you go to the emergency room, you can't run away with a hefty bill afterwards.

You can't rely on it, unless you want to lie down completely and become a tramp.

Chen Yu tore off the messy gauze. It was probably a fresh injury and he had sterilized it himself. There was no serious infection.

Without asking any questions, I just sutured and bandaged it, and then dispensed anti-inflammatory medicine.

In the distance, Moratti said nothing and just watched quietly.

After watching it for about half an hour, I turned around and left, ran to the assistant waiting in line, and queued up myself.

Chen Yu treats doctors very quickly, so although there are many people queuing up, the queue keeps moving.

About four hours later, it was Moratti's turn.

"Please sit down." Chen Yu still kept smiling.

However, Moratti noticed that there were beads of sweat on Chen Yu's forehead.

I probably haven't stopped since, and seeing a doctor at such a fast pace and having to deal with all kinds of situations, it's impossible not to be tired.Just as Moratti was about to speak, Chen Yu had already said first: "Your back hurts, right? Lie down."

In order to speed up efficiency, in some cases, Chen Yu was too lazy to go through the physical examination process and just took a quick glance.

Asking is just like Hill, I can see it with my eyes.

I guess no one would think twice about it.

Of course, if a check-up is really needed, Chen Yu will definitely arrange to go to the hospital for a check-up.

Moratti was stunned. He did have back pain. First, he was older. Second, he was injured when he was playing football when he was young, leaving some hidden diseases.

The key is, how did Chen Yu figure it out without even checking.

It's a bit divine.

But he didn't say anything and followed Chen Yu's request and lay down on the bed.

Chen Yu started immediately.

This old man's condition is similar to Quinn's. He must have been injured in the past, coupled with age, his bones have deteriorated, and he has gradually become slightly dislocated.

There are conditions for manual correction.

He felt Chen Yu's hand touching his back, and was about to ask Chen Yu what he planned to do, when he suddenly felt Chen Yu's hand press hard.

He heard a faint click, and he shivered in pain.

"Okay." Chen Yu patted Moratti on the back, and then said: "Pay attention to exercise. You can ride a bicycle more. It will be good for your waist."

Cycling can exercise waist muscles, improve muscle support for the spine, and relieve pain.

Moratti stood up in confusion.

Just now, his bodyguards in the distance almost rushed over.

He subconsciously moved his body and was surprised to find that the faint soreness in his lower back and the tingling sensation like gear friction as his body turned suddenly disappeared.

Is it just because of that press?

This is incredible too!
There are also bicycles.

Moratti has been riding his bicycle to Meia to check out the competition. The reason is sentimental, and part of the reason is that his personal doctor Zeng Jin told him that he can ride more bicycles to exercise.

Chen Yu also gave the same advice.

"You are very powerful." Moratti looked at Chen Yu again and said seriously.

Chen Yu smiled formulaically and shouted directly to Kidd for the next one.

Moratti walked away suspiciously. For the first time, he had doubts about his popularity.

In world football, no one knows me.

Serie A, a mini World Cup!
He is the head of Inter Milan.

But thinking about Ronaldo, Moratti regained his psychological balance.

Ronaldo went to the Wizards home court to watch the game, but he became an ordinary spectator, and no one recognized him at all.

Meeting up with the frightened Sco, Moratti turned and glanced at Chen Yu again, without saying anything, and left quickly.

Because of that click, his steps became much brisker.

Back in the car, Moratti took out his cell phone and called Branchini.

"Don't let Ronnie stay in Washington anymore, let him come to Phoenix and get surgery as soon as possible."

Moratti's words stunned Branchini.

Branchini was also worried about whether there would be any problems if Moratti personally went to Phoenix to inspect Chen Yu. After all, Chen Yu's qualifications seemed to be insufficient.

And this should have just arrived in Phoenix, so why did his attitude suddenly change so much?

"Sir, what's wrong?" Branchini asked tentatively.

The corners of Moratti's mouth rose involuntarily: "It's nothing. Chen is a good doctor. I feel relieved to leave Ronnie to him for treatment."

After that, he hung up the phone directly.

Here is Chen Yu.

There were so many people that the free clinic lasted until nearly eight o'clock that night.

"I'm exhausted." Byron Howard moved his shoulders and sighed.

Next to him, Nelson was also exercising, and then said: "Don't complain about being tired. The most tired person is Chen. He is crazy. He actually saw more than 100 patients in one day."

It was not just diagnosis, but also treatment and treatment, with little rest in between.

This amount of diagnosis and treatment in a hospital can equal that of an ordinary doctor for three months.

Chen Yu is also moving his body.

General luck.

The desired sports medical effect was not achieved.

On the contrary, it was sports medicine that achieved a bronze-level efficacy.

But it’s okay, I’ll just continue brushing tomorrow, and I’ve also transferred sixteen patients who need surgery to the hospital.

If you want high-level treatment results, you have to undergo surgery.

But there is no need to rush. You need to prepare for the surgery in advance. It cannot be done just by saying it is done.

The next day, Chen Yu received a call from Ronaldo.

Since he knew about it from the reporter in advance, Chen Yu didn't have any surprises.

"Come to the hospital first and wait for my arrangements."

A bunch of surgeries are waiting for him, and Chen Yu will not perform surgeries on Ronaldo without achieving high-level treatment effects.

At the same time, Chen Yu also has to make a trip to Los Angeles.

There are really many things.

After the three-day free clinic was over, Chen Yu hurried to Los Angeles.

Chen Yu walked out of Los Angeles International Airport shouting.

These three days of free clinics really made Chen Yu so tired that he even wanted to give himself a treatment to see if it could relieve his fatigue.

I just fell asleep on the plane for a while.

It's sunny.

The climate in Los Angeles is similar to Phoenix, but the humidity in the air still makes Chen Yu feel like he's back in Miami.

"Chen, thank you for your hard work."

This season, Mitch Kupchak, who had just become the general manager of the Lakers, went to the airport to greet Chen Yu in person.

The attitude is very kind.

In other words, the attitude of the entire Lakers team was unreasonable.

Owner Jerry Buss, along with his young son Jim Buss and daughter Jenny Buss, entertained Chen Yu at a luxury restaurant in Los Angeles.

Also present were Kupchak's predecessor, Lakers godfather Jerry West, and current head coach Phil Jackson.

Before the meal was finished, Chen Yu guessed the reason.

It's very simple. I control the player health management department. This time, I have the final say whether O'Neal and Kobe can miss the All-Star Game.

From the Lakers' point of view, they definitely don't want O'Neal and Kobe to play in an All-Star game while they are still injured and affect the team's record.

The key is Chen Yu. As long as Chen Yu says something and tells Stern, Kobe and O'Neal will not have to participate in the All-Star Game.

But Chen Yu came with a Stern mission, how could he follow their ideas.

"Let's wait until the inspection is completed tomorrow." By the end of the meal, Chen Yu still said the same thing.

The Lakers did not have a game the next day, so Chen Yu arranged for O'Neal and Kobe to go to the hospital for examination.

O'Neal arrived first.

Although he works in an NBA league full of people, Chen Yu still felt shocked when he saw O'Neal.

It was really like a humanoid black bear walking by itself, still standing upright.

It is simply unbelievable to think that such a big man can still charge up, run and jump.

"List."

O'Neill is very familiar with it, and he came up excitedly and wanted to give Chen Yu a hug.

Chen Yu was startled and reached out his hand first.

With your size, if you hug me, you will die.

But his hands are really big, and they feel like they are holding a cattail leaf fan.

O'Neal also asked about Hardaway's situation.

At that time, he was struggling with Hardaway's big contract and wanted a big contract. In the end, he failed to get it, so he left for Los Angeles.

At that time, the two had some conflicts, but as time passed, they had long since faded into the past.

And now that he thought about it, he had already won the championship and was honored, while Hardaway was still fighting the disease, and he even felt some sympathy in his heart.

While chatting, O'Neal also took off his sneakers, revealing his shockingly big feet.

It was twisted and deformed, and several toes were squeezed together like cans. It was very scary.

However, the feet of many professional basketball players are like this, especially the inside ones. They are heavy and the impact of the rush is scary. Over time, no matter how good the sneakers are, they will not be able to withstand such construction and will become deformed.

He has arthritis in the big toe of his left foot, which may be caused by the friction and squeezing between the toes and sneakers over time.

But when Chen Yu directed O'Neal to twist his foot to check whether the movement of his left foot was restricted, he suddenly noticed some problems.

"Lift your left foot again and hook the instep upward." Chen Yu directed.

O'Neal did.

Chen Yu frowned slightly.

As the saying goes, when a doctor frowns, the patient becomes nervous.

But the nervous one was Kupchak, who was accompanying him. He hurriedly asked: "Chen, what's the problem?"

Chen Yu nodded: "The dorsiflexion of his thumb is somewhat insufficient."

"So?" Kupchak's expression changed drastically.

Chen Yu pointed to the position of O'Neal's arch: "So it will affect his arch. In the long run, it is easy for the arch to be sprained or other problems may occur."

The root cause was, on the one hand, inflammation of the big toe, and on the other hand, his toe was too severely damaged.
