Chapter 581: 572 Bringing the Whole Family to Express Thanks
Zheng Renye also found it strange, saying people had already arrived…… Director Lin certainly wouldn't lie to himself over such a small matter.
It's unnecessary, and you couldn't fool him anyway. At worst, go take a look and the truth will be clear.
After exchanging a glance with Su Yun, Zheng Ren said, "Director Zhou, I'll return to the emergency ward first."
"I'll go with you," Director Zhou said solemnly, worried.
Actually, he didn't really believe it either.
Based on Director Zhou's judgment, using his own standing in the jianghu, he called the Director of Medical Affairs at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital, estimating that if the patient went there, a professor might receive them.
But if a professor were to come, City First Hospital would have to send a car to pick them up, and there would also need to be a big red envelope.
After all, Director Zhou and Director Lin had only met once or twice, and that was when they rushed to get acquainted at a provincial medical affairs meeting.
Speaking of relations, they were merely nodding acquaintances.
A chance encounter like drifting weeds, just a nodding acquaintance— to handle such a big matter, Director Zhou truly had no confidence.
But this time…… the attitude of Director Lin from the Medical University Affiliated Hospital was downright strange, and experts had already arrived.
This doesn't conform to common sense, does it?
Director Zhou was full of doubts, following Zheng Ren and Su Yun as they put on white coats, without changing into casual clothes, silently rushing all the way to the emergency ward.
Upon arriving at the emergency ward, a middle-aged man and woman stood at the door, holding things, looking like visitors coming to see a patient.
Seeing Zheng Ren approach, the man became solemn, tidied his clothes, extended his hand, bowed slightly, and strode forward to meet him.
"Teacher Zheng, hello," the man said with a sincere expression.
Zheng Ren froze for a moment; this person…… he didn't even look familiar, and Zheng Ren didn't know him at all.
But faced with the other's enthusiasm, Zheng Ren still reached out his hand.
He glanced at the woman behind him, still not recognizing her.
Zheng Ren wore a look of bewilderment.
"Teacher Zheng, I'm Hu Hai from the Neurosurgery Department of the Medical University Affiliated Hospital," the man said, shaking Zheng Ren's hand, then letting go and smiling: "Last time I made a fatal mistake; thankfully you stepped in to help."
Oh, so it's him.
Zheng Ren's memory returned hazily; that day the chief surgeon had already collapsed from exhaustion, he hadn't even seen what the doctor looked like, just given him a bow—as if saying farewell to a corpse.
"Oh, it's you," Zheng Ren said.
"Teacher Zheng, I've only just recovered these past few days; that incident really scared me." Hu Hai recalled that day, still feeling uneasy: "Thanks to you, otherwise I'd be ruined for life—not to mention the patient..."
"It's fine," Zheng Ren said with a smile, looking around.
"Teacher Zheng, did you…… hear Director Zhou say we encountered a case of Reifenstein's syndrome here?"
"Yeah, Director Zhou said the experts from the Medical University have arrived." Zheng Ren looked dubiously at Hu Hai and asked, "Could it be you? This has nothing to do with neurosurgery."
"It's my spouse," Hu Hai laughed. "Your great kindness and virtue…… I won't say empty pleasantries; in short, whatever you say, I'll definitely do my best."
Saying this, Hu Hai felt a bit embarrassed.
One could tell he was a technical person; on the jianghu, his frank speech would make him feel unable to speak.
But his meaning had already been expressed clearly.
"I brought my spouse along; the last time you helped, you saved our whole family." Hu Hai said: "My spouse is the director of the Obstetrics Department, a patient with Reifenstein's syndrome who recently underwent a procedure."
Saying this, Hu Hai's spouse stepped forward with a smiling face, extended a hand, and said: "Teacher Zheng, I'm Li Su Mei; pleased to meet you."
"Li Sister, hello," Zheng Ren said, extending his hand and shaking Li Su Mei's.
Director Zhou stood aside, listening dumbfounded.
What's going on? The director of the Obstetrics Department at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital personally came to thank Zheng Ren?
Who the hell has that kind of face?
Hai Cheng— Director Zhou couldn't think of anyone like that.
Zheng Ren immediately introduced Director Zhou to Li Su Mei, after all, Director Zhou is the representative of Haicheng City First Hospital for this matter.
The two shook hands, exchanged pleasantries, and thus became acquainted.
Seeing Director Zhou's doubtful expression, Hu Hai said somewhat embarrassedly: "Director Zhou, we're all in the same circle; to be frank, Teacher Zheng is my lifesaver."
Saying this, he briefly recounted the day's events.
Director Zhou listened, eyes wide open.
Right under his nose, Zheng Ren had actually grown to this extent?
If it were a general surgery procedure, Director Zhou would have accepted it.
Interventional surgery— Haicheng City First Hospital hasn't performed it in how many years? For that obstetrics case, Director Zhou knew Zheng Ren could do it, but who would have thought he could do it so well!
With so many experts and professors at the Medical University Affiliated Hospital unable to handle it, Zheng Ren actually managed to do it?!
This is just too unbelievable.
Now, the professors from the Medical University are bringing things, bringing their whole families to express thanks, full of sincerity.
It leaves Director Zhou no room not to believe.
"That day I was also muddled from busyness, I did a night of cerebral hemorrhage in the evening." Hu Hai felt especially embarrassed, explaining in one sentence: "Just a little carelessness, and this happened."
"Old Hu, this matter is already past; hurry up and help Haicheng City First Hospital solve the problem." Li Su Mei cut off Hu Hai's words, chiding.
Hu Hai scratched his head, smiling sheepishly: "My fault, my fault."
"Director Zhou, let me explain the situation; find a place with internet, I have a full set of PPTs on Reifenstein's syndrome treatment to use for explaining to patients' families—it's quite suitable." Li Su Mei, sharp and capable, didn't waste words, got straight to the point.
Director Zhou almost burst into tears.
This is timely rain.
He knew that Director Li of the Medical University Affiliated Hospital was being so forthcoming only out of respect for Zheng Ren's face.
But now there really isn't time to stand on ceremony; at the first sign of trouble, we must act quickly to resolve it before it escalates—this is the true essence of settling medical-patient disputes.
If we drag it out for a few days, who knows what trouble might arise.
He briefly explained the situation to Li Sumi; Li Sumi pondered for several Minute, then she said: "Director Zhou, let's do this: the General Surgery Department will first briefly explain to the patient's family, then find a demonstration room, and I will give a lecture to the family about the disease's origin and treatment process."
Director Zhou nodded repeatedly; being able to get this far in handling affairs already shows wholehearted dedication.
He quickly arranged the General Surgery Department demonstration room, which had a remote consultation center built a few years ago, where one could go online.
This center was built but hardly used. Because with the rapid development of high-speed rail and civil aviation, plus the Progress of instant chat tools like WeChat, consultations can be done just via chat software. If it's Shou Bing and treatment, Sheng Cheng is not far, Di Du is not far.
Arrange for Li Sumi to be at the consultation center, download the PPT courseware.
Director Zhou still felt uneasy, about to leave. But after hesitating a moment, he stayed anyway.
As for Reifenstein's syndrome, a disease he knows nothing about, what should he say to the patient's family? Does he have to talk nonsense?
