The collective malicious grins of the surgeons made Chen Xia more alert.
The physicians sitting nearby all curled their lips in disdain.
In hospitals, internists and surgeons naturally don't get along.
Surgeons think that internists are just good at talking and can't cure anything, and they can only talk but not do.
Internal medicine doctors think that surgeons are a bunch of rough guys who know nothing and can only operate without understanding the principles behind the surgery.
Chen Xia looked at this group of old directors and had a bad feeling in his heart. Maybe they all came here to ask for money today?
Sure enough, He Chengde was the first to speak:
"Deputy Chen, when it comes to this $50 million in compensation, you deserve the greatest credit. If you hadn't actively fought for it, risen to the challenge, and gone to the United States to fight to the death, would the United States have paid the money so easily?"
"That's right," a group of rough old surgeons nodded.
"Secondly, the second-best contributor is our surgical system. The lead surgeons this time were Xie Liping and Gao Li, both of whom are our surgeons. So, with the $50 million we've received, we all feel we should vigorously develop our surgical system."
"That's right," the rough old man nodded in agreement.
Xuan Yongda was unhappy when he heard this:
"You guys in surgery just use a knife, right? It's like a butcher, slaughtering pigs and sheep. Who has the greatest credit? Of course, we in internal medicine have the greatest credit. We are like skilled chefs. Without us, can we eat raw pork?
You have to know that after the transplant surgery, whether it was monitoring in the intensive care unit or daily care, both transplant patients were taken care of by our internal medicine physicians. When was the last time your surgeons came on duty?
What do you surgeons know? Here, I have a simple blood gas analysis report. Director He, can you tell me what HCO3-↑/H2CO3↓ means? What does it represent? What should we do next?
He Chengde was unhappy when he heard this:
"Lao Xuan, this is just like a war. We are the frontline troops charging in the front, and you are the logistics troops in the back. Aren't you just pushing a wheelbarrow to transport supplies? You are also a chef? Humph."
Director Xu Jincheng of the Endocrinology Department coughed a few times:
"Take this liver transplant, for example. Glycogen synthesis is impaired, and insulin resistance leads to elevated blood sugar. Do you surgeons have a solution? You're all just staring at each other in disbelief, right? And at the critical moment, wasn't it us endocrinologists who stepped in to lower the blood sugar?
"Hey, you still have to admit it. It's not like everything will be fine after taking anti-rejection drugs after the transplant. Do you understand the many complications? If these complications are not treated, can your transplant surgery be successful?"
When the surgical directors heard this, they were so angry that their mouths were twisted.
Qiu Fangjue was unhappy:
"You guys in internal medicine just use medicine, what's the point of talking? Come on, come on, we've already got four organ transplant patients scheduled. The next surgery will be done by you internal medicine doctors, how about we help you out?
Hey, I'm not looking down on you, but if the knife slips and blood spurts out, you physicians will be frightened to death, right? Can you find the renal and iliac arteries? Do you know which bladder mucosa should be anastomosed with?
Hahahaha~~~~
The surgeons all laughed out loud, and their laughter was as arrogant as it could be.
While the internal medicine and surgery departments were still arguing, the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department, Zeng Hongke, quit.
"What are you arguing about? You old fools in the Department of Internal Medicine, you stupid guys in the Department of Surgery, are you the only ones who are capable? You are the only ones who need development? Don't you even look at our Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology? Now, pregnant women in Yuezhou who have the conditions come to our department to give birth.
Xiao Xia, if you have time, please come to the obstetrics and gynecology department. Our department is now full of pregnant women in the corridors, and even the doctor's office has two beds reserved. Is our obstetrics and gynecology department easy?
If a patient in your department of internal medicine or surgery doesn't want to be seen, you can turn them down. But if a pregnant woman comes to our hospital with stomach pains and is about to give birth, can we turn her down? Can we ask her to come back in a few days when she's free?"
Old lady Zeng and old lady Liu from the internal medicine department were the famous "Four Strong Women" of the Fourth Hospital. When it comes to fighting, they will definitely show no mercy.
The other doctors were speechless. What was going on? The internal medicine and surgery departments were still fighting over funding, and then out of nowhere, someone suddenly showed up?
Liu Shumei saw that obstetrics and gynecology had been included, so how could pediatrics fall behind?
"Xiao Xia, you know from frequent visits to the pediatric department that we are seriously understaffed. The outpatient department and inpatient department are overcrowded every day. We have 300 visits a day just for nebulization. The nursing department is so busy that they have complaints.
So my opinion is that hospitals have already provided enough support to adult departments, and now it's time to support pediatrics. Children are the future of our country, and we must do more to protect women and children, not just pay lip service to it."
"Hey, this money is earned by our surgery department, what does it have to do with you women..."
"Your wife gave birth and didn't come to our gynecology department..."
"That's right. The Department of Surgery spent hundreds of thousands of dollars just to build two operating rooms. When did our Department of Internal Medicine ever get such preferential treatment..."
"I don't care. The obstetrics and gynecology department must be given special attention this time..."
“…”
“…”
The vice president's office was in chaos, with the internal medicine department, pediatrics and gynecology department arguing with each other, the ophthalmology department and the ENT department not wanting to be left behind, and even the laboratory department joined in the fun, clamoring for some more advanced equipment.
Everyone argued for a few words and asked Chen Xia to judge who was right.
What could Chen Xia say? Anything he said would only offend people. He didn't feel like a dignified vice president at all, but more like a neighborhood committee lady, the kind of old uncle on a TV mediation show.
The key is that he can't curse, because these old directors are not doing it for personal gain, they are all doing it for the development of the department.
Fighting is actually a good thing. Not fighting or competing, like a salted fish, is Chen Xia in his previous life.
But what should we do now?
How to solve the current problem?
Although these old directors were arguing fiercely with each other, they were actually not breaking up. There was even a faint feeling that they were joining forces to force the emperor to abdicate.
Whether the 50 million US dollars can be successfully transferred to Yuezhou Hospital’s account is still unclear, and there is already a big internal dispute.
Zhao Xiaoying and Xu Shuangli rushed over after hearing the quarrel. As soon as they entered the room and saw so many old directors clamoring for money, they knew that this was going to be trouble.
Dean Zhao and Vice Dean Xu were also smart. When they saw that the situation was not right, they wanted to retreat immediately, but they were stopped by Chen Xia.
"Dean, Vice President Xu, wait a moment. While everyone's here, let's open the conference room door and talk it out in front of everyone. Arguing isn't the solution, is it?"
Zhao Xiaoying smiled awkwardly: "Xiao Chen, you are in charge of clinical and business matters. You have the final say on this matter. We will not get involved."
Chen Xia almost rolled his eyes: "No, let's hold an emergency meeting today."
