Chapter 69 Trip to Shipo
On Sunday, set off towards Shipo County.
Song Zimo's BMW was very comfortable to sit in. Yang Ping sat in the passenger seat and Director Tian sat in the seat behind the driver's seat. There were some snacks and a few bottles of water in the car.
Yang Ping was so tired from the past ten days that he tilted his seat and lay down to sleep.
Although the body is tired, the mind is very at ease. This sense of at ease makes people very relaxed.
It was my first time to have surgery. Although I was working as an assistant, and I was working with Director Tian, who had comprehensive skills and was practical and reliable. However, if I had not done the pelvis and acetabular surgery independently and my skills were still lacking, I would always feel uneasy.
Just in case, just in case, I need to do it independently, although the possibility is almost zero. But after being a doctor for so many years, I am used to being prepared for everything without taking any chances.
If I hadn't come out for surgery and stayed in Sanbo Hospital, I wouldn't have been so anxious. As soon as I heard that I was coming out for surgery, it was urgent to make up for my shortcomings.
Just like when you drive on the highway, you always fill up the gas tank to feel at ease. This is the same truth.
Fortunately, I have worked hard in the past ten days to increase my points, and obtained the surgical training for systematic pelvic and acetabular fractures. Now I am finally at ease, and I have no shortcomings in the Department of Traumatology and Orthopedics.
Shipo County is a remote area of Nandu Province, at the junction of three provinces. Although it is a county hospital, it has a particularly rich source of diseases and can be regarded as a quasi-tertiary hospital.
This reason is a bit interesting: Because of its remoteness, patients rarely go out to seek medical treatment. Unless there is a real serious illness, it can basically be solved nearby.
In recent years, their dean has been quite effective, and has carried out a series of reforms to retain talents and improve hardware conditions. In this way, the hospital has entered a virtuous cycle, one level at a time, attracting patients from surrounding counties and cities. .
The highway is winding and winding, and there are many tunnels in the mountainous area. The long tunnel actually took more than ten minutes to exit. Song Zimo wore polarized sunglasses and bluetooth headphones on his ears. He had good driving skills and drove very smoothly.
"Dr. Yang, I heard that you have been engaged in scientific research recently and want to collect surgical cases. What kind of scientific research is this? Why is there nothing happening?" Tian Yuan asked Yang Ping.
When driving for several hours, you have to find something to talk about, otherwise it will be too boring.
Tianyuan thought: He is in charge of Corey's scientific research. This guy didn't even say a word about what kind of secret plan he was working on.
"Scientific research? What scientific research?" Yang Ping was confused.
Song Zimo was afraid that Yang Ping would leak, so he immediately took over: "Actually, it's nothing. After the last small lecture, Professor Zhang Zongshun suggested that we collect cases and write a book - "Internal Fixation Structure". We just want to operate various fractures of the limbs. Do more to follow up on the biomechanical properties of different internal fixations.”
Yang Ping turned to look at Song Zimo, what was he talking about.
Song Zimo was driving and wanted to wink. Oh shit! It's not easy to wink if you have a reflector.
"For the scientific research cases you want, Xiao Wu and Zhang Lin helped you dig up some from Director Tian." Song Zimo was smart and responded quickly.
Only then did Yang Ping wake up and immediately said: "Yes, I thought you were talking about scientific research. It is not scientific research. The project has not been approved. It is just preliminary data preparation."
"You're talking about poaching patients. Don't say it's so serious. You really need it. Just say hello. We are all brothers." Director Tian could chat with them and did not feel superior to them just because he was the deputy chief physician.
"Thank you, Brother Tian!" Song Zimo said immediately.
"Xiao Wu and Zhang Lin came to me asking for surgical patients. They said you needed scientific research and what the specific topic was. They were hesitant and couldn't tell me. I was afraid that you had confidentiality needs, so I didn't ask more. So that's what happened." Tianyuan took out a pack of chewing gum and handed two pieces to Yang Ping from behind. Yang Ping kept one piece for himself and handed one piece to Song Zimo.
"The director of Orthopedics in Shipo County, Director Miao, is very familiar with Director Han and has sent us many patients, so Director Han pays special attention to it this time. If our hospital expands its influence in the Shipo area, the source of the disease will rise to a higher level. Don't underestimate this area. It is a mountainous area and borders three provinces. Patients from the borders of the three provinces gather here. It is a county hospital in name but actually plays the role of a regional central hospital. The transportation here is not convenient. It is far from the provincial capital and there is no high-speed train. "Patients generally don't come out to see a doctor, especially now that they have medical insurance, and they don't want to come out." Dr. Tian has been working in Sanbo Hospital since he graduated. He has been following Director Han and knows the situation very well. He used to go here with Director Han to perform knives. .
"This patient's pelvic fracture is quite serious, which is quite difficult." Song Zimo chatted while driving.
Director Tian reminded: "You should concentrate on driving. This section is a mountainous road with twists and turns, so brace yourself." "I also watched the movie. It is indeed very tricky." Yang Ping said.
"I have studied for several nights and made many plans. Director Han asked me to bring you out just to ensure that the operation is absolutely safe. I am worried that their people and I are not skilled in setting up the surgery." Tian Yuan handed over another bottle of water. Yang He unscrewed it and took a sip of water.
Director Tian's phone rang, and it was Director Miao who asked where he was.
We all chatted and enjoyed ourselves along the way. It’s not so leisurely at ordinary times. We didn’t chat as much in the car after a month at work.
The car entered Shipo County. The houses on the roadside reminded Yang Ping of his hometown, which is also a small county town.
Yang Ping's father is a country doctor, formerly called a barefoot doctor, who walks around with a medicine box on his back.
Now the rural economy has developed, the quality of life has improved, and health stations have been built. In addition, Yang Ping was admitted to university for graduate school and started working. Yang Ping's parents are now living quite comfortably.
"I graduated from West China with an undergraduate degree and worked in a county hospital in general surgery." Apparently Director Tian was moved by the scene and it also brought back some memories.
Yang Ping knew more about Director Tian from Zhang Lin. He was pragmatic and low-key, had no airs, and usually got along well with young doctors. When some graduate students were in financial difficulty, he would generously donate money and give some pocket money privately. So all the students from Guipei want to be in a group with him.
He had worked in general surgery at a county hospital for three years after graduating from his undergraduate degree, and then passed the postgraduate examination in West China. He had excellent grades and was good at writing papers and performing surgeries. He was recommended by his tutor to study for a master's and doctoral degree together. During his studies, with the help of his tutor, he taught the attending physician Passed the test.
After graduation, I went to work at Sanbo Hospital. After working for two years, I was successfully promoted to deputy chief physician. In this way, I almost didn't miss a step, and I stepped on the point of career promotion step by step. When he was in his thirties, he led a group and acted alone.
Director Tian is from Shaanxi. He has many brothers and sisters in his family and his economic conditions are poor. It is said that he even wears patched pants when he is a graduate student.
Later, I made a living by writing papers for others, and then I finished graduate school.
Now that we are leading a group, we will definitely have no problem financially. We have a complete RV and a beautiful family. He never forgets his roots and often helps his brothers and sisters, some of whom he helped find jobs in G city.
When he returns to his hometown, he often helps the villagers.
I once heard from Zhang Lin that Director Tian, a primary school teacher, fell from a ladder and fractured his femoral shaft. He had no money for treatment and had to lie at home to suffer.
Director Tian contacted his former colleagues at the county hospital and took the teacher to that hospital. Not only did he help pay for the medical expenses, but he also went back to perform the surgery himself. The teacher later fully recovered.
"We're almost there. Director Miao asked us to park in the parking lot of their hospital. He's waiting for us at the exit." Director Tian reminded Song Zimo.
After getting off the highway, Song Zimo slowed down and walked a section of cement national highway before entering Shipo County.
According to the navigation, the car parked in the parking lot of Shipo County People's Hospital.
Director Miao was waiting at the exit of the parking lot in person. He was of medium build, a little overweight, and wearing a white shirt.
He knew Director Tian and had seen Director Tian perform surgery. Now that he saw Director Tian coming over, he felt at ease.
Director Miao enthusiastically came up to shake hands one by one: "Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work. Come on, let's have lunch first and then take a rest. We have made arrangements."
Director Tian looked at the time and said, "It's still early. There's no rush. Let's go to the department to see the patients first."
