Chapter 1122: Long-term planning
Upon hearing the cry for help, Yu Zhiming rushed to the patient's side as soon as possible.
This was a thin old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with a pale face, sweat on his forehead, and his right hand tightly grasping his left chest.
Yu Zhiming reached out to check the old man's chest and found that his heart rate was over 100.
Moreover, there are symptoms of arrhythmia.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Zhiming examined the old man's brain and thyroid gland and found no signs of stroke or thyroid disease.
There are many causes of arrhythmia, among which heart disease, stroke and hyperthyroidism are the top pathological causes.
Yu Zhiming returned to check the old man's heart and withdrew his hand after two or three minutes.
"You have a tachyarrhythmia, but your symptoms are improving and you're expected to return to normal within half an hour."
After Yu Zhiming finished his diagnosis, he continued, "Your heart is fine, there are no signs of a stroke, and your thyroid is healthy. This arrhythmia could be caused by medication, alcohol, tea, emotions, or food allergies. You should go to the hospital for a detailed examination."
After he finished expressing his views, he prepared to leave.
"Doctor Yu..."
Yu Zhiming stopped turning around and looked at the thin old man who suddenly spoke.
Then he slowly said, "Dr. Yu, could you please find the exact cause of my arrhythmia? That way I can completely put my mind at ease and stop overthinking."
Yu Zhiming frankly said: "There are many causes of arrhythmia, and I can't figure it out at the moment."
"Your life is not in danger now. You can go to the hospital for more detailed examination and treatment."
Now Yu Zhiming is away, only providing emergency treatment to those with acute illnesses or accidental injuries. He will not treat other types of patients if he can avoid it.
Of course, since Yu Zhiming is accompanied by others when he goes out, his personal safety should be the first priority. The possibility of encountering a patient and taking action is quite low.
Yu Zhiming turned around to leave again, but was stopped again.
"Doctor Yu..."
The thin old man said sincerely, "The reason I was invited to attend the unveiling ceremony of your hometown is because I am negotiating a 20 million yuan investment project with your hometown."
"I am willing to sign this investment project with your hometown immediately, pay Dr. Yu one million yuan for his consultation, and ask Dr. Yu to give me a detailed physical examination."
After a pause, the thin old man continued, "If you are unlucky enough to be diagnosed with a serious health problem, please ask Doctor Yu to diagnose and treat you."
He then emphasized: "Treatment fees will be paid separately!"
At this time, many people had gathered nearby. Yu Zhiming also noticed that the guests who remained at the dining table were all pricking up their ears and craning their necks to pay attention to this place.
Yu Zhiming said in a clear voice: "Thank you all for your concern, support and investment in my hometown, Liyang County."
"I hope this is a mutually beneficial investment, where you can all make money and my hometown can also develop well."
"If you invest recklessly just for health checkups and treatment, you're putting the cart before the horse."
Yu Zhiming turned his gaze towards the thin old man who had stood up and said, "Your arrhythmia is not serious. It is probably caused by some accidental factors."
"Even if the arrhythmia is truly caused by pathological reasons, it is not a difficult problem to treat. Most tertiary hospitals can provide appropriate treatment."
"So, you don't have to worry or be too nervous!"
Yu Zhiming said something comforting and prepared to leave for the third time.
"Doctor Yu..."
The thin old man called out to Yu Zhiming for the third time, clasping his fists and pleading, "Please forgive my previous concealment, Doctor Yu. I was diagnosed with intestinal cancer some time ago."
"Please help me, Doctor Yu!"
He then added, "I just want to stay alive. Money is nothing to me. Doctor Yu is kind and kind-hearted. Please save me."
Yu Zhiming frowned.
The old man in front of him was not honest and was too cunning. He was basically certain that the arrhythmia just now was caused by this guy on purpose.
Some medicines can cause heart rhythm problems.
Yu Zhiming didn't like his behavior.
He declined, "Sir, I'm on vacation now and won't be seeing any patients. Besides, my work schedule after vacation is very tight."
"There are many well-known cancer treatment experts both at home and abroad. With your financial resources, it will definitely not be a problem for you to make appointments with several of them for cancer treatment."
After saying this, Yu Zhiming did not give the old man a chance to respond and strode back to his dining table.
Zhou Mo came over and reported in a low voice: "Doctor Yu, that guy is a coal boss."
"Sun Lin just told me..."
Zhou Mo said angrily, "His son is the bastard who killed Wei Chen's pet in front of him in the United States."
I see!
Yu Zhiming instantly understood why this guy went through so many twists and turns to come to him for treatment.
His repeated refusal to treat this man's son, who suffered serious aftereffects from an accident, must have let this man know that he had serious issues with their family.
Coupled with the obstruction of Wei Chen and her father who has some influence in Binhai, this person must have put a lot of thought into appearing in front of Yu Zhiming today.
However, this made Yu Zhiming dislike this guy even more.
If you do something wrong, you must stand at attention when you are beaten.
You should have the right attitude when asking for help.
Yu Zhiming prefers to be straightforward. How can he be treated through deception and inducement?
Do you really think that half a year ago, he would be so easily willing to bend over for a few pieces of silver...
Because there were still many people waiting for physical examinations, Yu Zhiming only rested for three or five minutes after eating and drinking, and then he was the first to get up and leave his seat and get back to work.
Yu Zhiming worked until nearly seven in the evening before completing today's physical examination.
Afterwards, Yu Zhiming washed up and rested for a while, then went to a private room on the second floor of Qilu Building for dinner.
This time, there were fewer people accompanying Yu Zhiming for dinner.
There were Qing Ning, Zhou Mo, Sun Lin, the second son of the Yu family, Yu Weidan, as well as Liyang County Magistrate Cheng, the director of the county office, and the magistrate's secretary.
As soon as Yu Zhiming sat down, he heard County Magistrate Cheng say with emotion, "Doctor Yu, thank you for your generous donation. Your love for the people of your hometown is truly beyond words. It comes from the heart."
County Magistrate Cheng praised him and then asked, "This charity project will last for many years. Do you have someone you like to lead this project in the county?"
Yu Zhiming knew that this was the county magistrate's reward for his kindness.
However, he didn't need to do so and replied directly: "County Head, there's no need to go to all that trouble. Just let the Civil Affairs Bureau work with the Health Commission and the Education Bureau to take charge."
He added: "Don't count the county hospital as a placeholder for further education and training for medical staff. They have no shortage of opportunities for further education."
County Chief Cheng nodded and said, "Doctor Yu, please rest assured..."
He paused deliberately and said solemnly, "This charity project will be carried out meticulously according to your wishes. Not a single cent will be wasted."
"I'm relieved!" Yu Zhiming replied with a smile...
The dinner was even more exquisite and upscale than the lunch. Yu Zhiming ate for a while to relieve his hunger before resuming the conversation.
County Mayor Cheng enthusiastically introduced: "Based on existing investment projects, we intend to build a medical industrial park to create a clustering effect."
The next moment, he suddenly asked, "Doctor Yu, do you have any suggestions on investment projects?"
this……
Yu Zhiming muttered to himself that given the situation in Liyang County, there seemed to be no room for choice. As long as the project was legal and compliant, it would definitely be warmly welcomed.
He thought hard, shook his head and said, "I don't have any better suggestions. I haven't done any research on this."
County Magistrate Cheng said with a smile, "Our Liyang County has pretty good transportation. We have high-speed rail and expressways, and it's only about 50 to 60 kilometers away from the city's airport."
"The county hospital is booming these days. Doctor Yu, do you think it's possible to use the county hospital as a foundation and develop it into a large hospital that serves several surrounding cities?"
this……
Yu Zhiming felt that County Magistrate Cheng was being a bit fanciful and couldn't help but say, "County Magistrate, the first requirement for becoming a major hospital is to have good medical resources. Given our county's current conditions, can we retain good doctors?"
County Magistrate Cheng sighed softly, "Indeed, our county's economic conditions are relatively backward, and we can't attract talented doctors."
"if……"
County Magistrate Cheng emphasized, "Doctor Yu, I'm talking about what if our county hospital became a training and internship base for doctors at major hospitals like Binhai Huashan Hospital, Ning'an Hospital, Beijing Union Hospital, and Qilu Hospital in the provincial capital?"
After a pause, he continued, "At the same time, the county hospital is also attracting patients from surrounding cities and counties by offering relatively high medical standards and relatively low fees?"
"Of course, to successfully achieve this, we absolutely cannot do without your powerful influence and network of connections, Dr. Yu!"
Yu Zhiming met County Magistrate Cheng's expectant gaze and said thoughtfully, "County Magistrate, do you mean to pool the resources of several major hospitals to create a superb doctor training base?"
County Magistrate Cheng nodded and said, "This is an idea that I came up with by chance during a conversation with a few colleagues."
"Our county has cheap land and a relatively low cost of living. As a province with a large population, the surrounding cities and counties also have no shortage of population."
"If we can provide medical services that are one level lower than those of Huashan and Union Hospitals, but one level higher than those in the surrounding areas, and charge relatively low fees, we should be able to attract many patients."
After a pause, County Magistrate Cheng continued, "According to my understanding, the medical level of the entire Lu Province, including Qilu Hospital, is far behind that of Beijing and Binhai."
"Many patients with serious illnesses in our province either go to Beijing or Binhai for treatment."
Yu Zhiming knew that what County Magistrate Cheng said was true.
When he was working in the county hospital, most of the seriously ill patients were not transferred to the provincial hospital for treatment, but went directly to Beijing or Binhai.
He himself had escorted a patient to Binhai for treatment, and then something happened that changed his destiny.
Yu Zhiming pondered and said, "My hometown really needs a high-level hospital."
“It’s just this investment…”
Yu Zhiming suddenly stopped.
He thought of one thing: if he could maintain a monthly income of more than tens of millions, it would not be impossible to build a large hospital.
"County Magistrate Cheng, this matter requires careful consideration. I need to think carefully about it..."
After eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming, who had eaten and drunk his fill, took a car and left Qilu Building.
"Take a turn and go to Huashan Hospital." Yu Zhiming instructed Sun Lin who was driving.
He had already learned from Zhou Mo that Dr. Fang had made no new progress on the patient whose family was causing trouble...
