Chapter 2795: with translation of chapter title

Doctor Liao, your laugh just now was really weird—doesn't seem like you're chatting with a girlfriend." Su Yun, while fiddling with her phone and chatting with the person on the other end of the line, said to Doctor Liao.

Hey, just take a quick look." Doctor Liao said vaguely.

I'm just guessing, treating it as a game." Su Yun looked past the black hair in front of her forehead at Doctor Liao.

He's fiddling with that online doctor software again." Zhou Chun Yong said disdainfully: "I've told him how many times, but he just won't listen."

Saying that, Zhou Chun Yong shook his head. The overbearing and domineering him obviously also doted on Doctor Liao a little, just like a master treating his youngest, most beloved disciple. Although he was disdainful, he couldn't bear to say harsh words.

Huh? Online doctor? You dare to get involved in this?" Su Yun said, looking astonished at Doctor Liao.

It's fine; I'm just answering a few questions about liver cancer." Doctor Liao laughed and said: "It's my specialty, so answering isn't taxing. How much I earn each time is secondary; the main thing is that many patients don't understand interventional therapy, and if I say a few words, they might gain new hope."

New hope is selling pig feed." Su Yun said. This topic flew straight to the other side of the sky; Doctor Liao, after being rebutted, was stunned for a moment, not knowing why, just moments ago looking as if he and the pleasant‑suited Su Yun were getting along, suddenly turned hostile.

Just answering? Do you charge or not?" Zheng Ren suddenly asked, then he shook his head and said: "Not charging also won't do; the risk is too high."

Seeing Zheng Ren interested, Zhou Chun Yong brought the topic to the table: "Zheng Lao Ban, what do you mean by the risk you said?"

Not long ago, a doctor had to pay 20,000 yuan because of an online consultation—do you guys know about that?" Su Yun said, tapping on her phone screen while slightly lifting her head.

……" Doctor Liao stared for a moment.

Why bother doing this?" Su Yun chuckled, blew a breath, her bangs fluttering, and said, "Doctor Liao, your income must be decent—what are you aiming for by doing online consultations?"

Um… Yun Ge'er, may I call you that?" Doctor Liao asked cautiously.

Hey, boss, look how savvy Doctor Liao is—when can you call me Yun Ge'er?" Su Yun glanced at Zheng Ren and asked.

Let's get down to business." Zheng Ren cut off Su Yun's words.

Zheng Lao Ban, Yun Ge'er, not many people know about our liver cancer interventional Shou Bing." Doctor Liao sighed and said: "I accompany the director on outpatient visits, and I see many patients who come already at an advanced stage, with no chance for Shou Bing; at most we can float some iodized oil and chemo drugs into the liver artery."

This can only be considered a makeshift solution, giving patients some psychological comfort; the effect is indeed limited.

I see Zheng Lao Ban doing a live broadcast of the treatment external Shou Bing plus Surgery live broadcast, and I suppose he also wants more doctors to know the benefits of interventional therapy. If the doctors in the lower‑level cities and counties all knew that liver cancer also has interventional options, many patients wouldn't be delayed.

no.

He and Doctor Liao have different ways of doing things—one spreads knowledge first among doctors, the other goes straight to patients.

The director often says, the popularization of liver cancer interventional therapy is poor, which is because we haven't done enough. I'm not just trying to use the power of the internet to contribute a little and make money… a consultation for a few bucks isn't even worth the effort." Doctor Liao said.

Besides, getting an appointment at our big tertiary hospital in Di Du is no easy feat—you can't even see a doctor without waiting 4‑5 days, and even if you're a Du resident, you still need at least 1‑2 days. Many people drag it out until it's too late; online consultation might be relatively more convenient.

Not long ago, an online pediatric consultation went wrong." Su Yun took over the topic and said: "A child felt eye uncomfortable, so they consulted a pediatrician online. The advice was to put a few drops of eye drops in the child's eyes, but a few days later the condition worsened, and they ended up at a nearby children's hospital, where they were diagnosed with orbital cellulitis; hospitalization and treatment cost a lot before they got better.

Later the family felt dissatisfied and sued that pediatrician. In the end they settled, paying 20,000 yuan. The pediatrician felt wronged, but if you ask me, the whole thing was unreliable from the start." Su Yun didn't laugh; instead, she spoke very seriously, which was rare for her.

The matter is simple: basically, seeing a doctor online, giving a simple suggestion, then the illness got worse with treatment, and finally the patient's family was dissatisfied.

At least the child's eyes were cured—it was just a matter of money. If it hadn't been cured, who knows what would happen later?

Oh? Teacher Su, what do you think?" Zhou Chun Yong asked politely.

Boss, a while back I saw two diarrhea patients at Director Luo in our Xiao Hua Nei Ke." Su Yun said, "One just needed some medicine and was fine; the other required Shou Bing. Whether it's Chinese medicine's inspection, listening, questioning, and palpation, or Western medicine's observation, touch, percussion, and auscultation, it's all the same—what matters is pattern‑based diagnosis and treatment.

Mm, Su Yun is right. Perhaps Doctor Liao's approach would convenience 999 people, but the one‑in‑a‑thousand chance, even as I downplay it, could still ruin your career if one person is delayed." Zheng Ren said, "I've thought about this back in Hai Cheng too, but I never acted on it—it's just unreliable. In ordinary face‑to‑face consultations, examinations, checks, and treatments, even daily ward rounds can go wrong, let alone this.

Basically, there just aren't enough doctors.

Doing this is too risky, Doctor Liao—you've got even more guts!" Su Yun said, laughing: "Cancer patients might improve just a little, after all they already have their own expectations. But have you considered a few scenarios?

Doctor Liao instinctively asked: "Yun Ge'er, what scenarios?

First, the patient themselves doesn't know; they inquire about your condition online. Are you going to be truthful or hide it?

no.

If you tell the truth, and the patient didn't know, they might suddenly find out and their emotions could collapse. Even if your diagnosis is flawless, it could still upset the patient's family. If you run into an overly zealous one, you'd better watch out." Su Yun said.

Doctor Liao remained silent; there are many more zealous patients' families, and the recent several medical‑violence incidents are shocking.

If you hide it, things will only get worse. This is just one scenario; next, the patient asks this and that—some say they need Shou Bing, others say they want interventional therapy, can't make up their mind, and end up missing the best time. Do you think this pile of crap won't end up on your head?

no.

no.

Su Yun chatted with Fugui'er while explaining to Doctor Liao the drawbacks of online consultations, scaring Doctor Liao into breaking out in a cold sweat.
