Chapter 1214: Doctors Don’t Treat Themselves
The dinner in honor of Dr. Adenauer was held at the Youyou Hotel at 6 p.m.
In addition to the many laryngeal surgery experts who attended the seminar, those who attended the dinner included Vice President Tan of Huashan Hospital, Director Yang Mai of the Medical Department, Director Qi Yue of Zhizhenlou, and a total of thirty or forty people.
Yu Zhiming, who had invited Dr. Adenauer, was naturally also present.
Considering that the host and guests are German, today's dishes are mainly some dishes that Germans like.
For example, braised pork knuckle, chunks of Dongpo pork, grilled sausage and ribs. Another example is replacing the bone-laden steamed fish with boneless pan-fried fish.
This kind of delicious food suits Yu Zhiming's taste very well, and he enjoys eating it very much.
Not only Yu Zhiming, but also Dr. Adenauer was busy eating and ignored others.
This made the hospital leaders who were accompanying the guests feel a little embarrassed. After a few brief greetings at the beginning of the dinner, they also started eating and drinking.
Under the leadership of Dr. Adenauer and Yu Zhiming, the dinner, which was originally scheduled to last an hour and a half, took only more than half an hour to eat and drink.
Next, Yu Zhiming took the initiative to ask Dr. Adenauer a question about surgery.
After Dr. Adenauer answered the question, another laryngeal surgery expert from the Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital asked a professional question.
Seeing the laryngeal surgeons at other tables stand up and gather around the main table to listen to Dr. Adenauer's answers, Yu Zhiming felt that his mission was accomplished, so he stood up and left the main table, ready to leave.
"Zhi Ming..."
Yu Zhiming stopped, and Sun Lin and Zhou Mo, who were accompanying him on his left and right, also stopped.
Yu Zhiming saw Teacher Qi Yue, Vice Dean Tan, and Yang Mai approaching together and asked in a low voice, "Are you guys leaving early too?"
"How come?"
Qi Yue said with a bit of a smile: "As the host, we must accompany the guests well and cannot leave early."
"You can't leave early."
Yu Zhiming said awkwardly, "Teacher, I'm not running away. I'm going back to the hospital to draw a diagram of the patient's injuries and think about his surgical plan."
He then looked at Dr. Adenauer, who was gathered at the main table answering questions, and said, "Dr. Adenauer is a pure medical expert and would not care about these minor details."
Vice President Tan chuckled and said, "Indeed, entertaining an expert so devoted to medicine like this is the easiest thing to do. I had a very relaxing meal."
He said this, but in his heart he thought that such a person is not only worry-free, but also troublesome.
As long as you can give him what he wants, he won't mind eating hamburgers and French fries.
If you can't give him what he wants, he will just turn around and leave without giving you any face.
And Yu Zhiming in front of him was like a strong magnet, attracting Dr. Adenauer to come from afar.
At this time, Director Yang Mai said with concern: "Doctor Yu, I heard that you almost fainted because of excessive thinking when you were communicating with Doctor Adenauer this afternoon?"
Yu Zhiming explained, "It wasn't that serious. I was just too engrossed in thinking about the surgical plan, and I suffered from a bit of hypoxia. I'll be fine after two or three minutes."
Yang Mai looked at Vice President Tan and Qi Yue and said, "Doctor Yu is always good at giving others physical examinations. As the saying goes, a doctor cannot treat himself. I think it is necessary to give Doctor Yu regular physical examinations."
Yu Zhiming was about to refuse when he heard Qi Yue say in a deep voice, "Director Yang's suggestion is very good and necessary."
Vice President Tan also nodded and said, "I agree."
Yu Zhiming objected, "Dean Tan, Director Yang, and Teacher, I can clearly hear my own heartbeat and blood flow every day. If there's any abnormality, I'll notice it immediately. There's no need to waste hospital resources on a physical examination for me."
Qi Yue said seriously, "Do you know what it means to be blinded by the light? What does it mean to be blinded by familiarity?"
Qi Yue saw that Yu Zhiming was a little unconvinced, so he gave another example: "It's difficult for me to check for simple mistakes like typos in the papers or articles I write myself, so I always ask my family to help me find them."
"You must have experienced this kind of problem before, right?"
Yang Mai also advised: "Doctor Yu, you must also know that your health is no longer just your own business. It is not an exaggeration to say that it involves national security."
"It's never wrong to be cautious. A physical examination won't take up much time."
Yu Zhiming seized on this point and said, "Director Yang, don't you know that our hospital's most comprehensive physical examination takes two days to complete?"
Yang Mai looked embarrassed.
Qi Yue said: "That is for ordinary people. For you, many items do not need to be checked."
"How about this, I'll draw up a physical examination list based on your physical condition and try to complete it within half a day."
Seeing the teacher's firm attitude, Yu Zhiming nodded in agreement, as he had done many physical examinations before.
"Okay, once a year, as a routine physical."
Qi Yue said: "Once a year is too little. Your physical condition is still important. You should check at least once a quarter."
Yu Zhiming refused repeatedly, "No, no, that's too much. At least four X-rays and ultrasounds a year? Teacher, aren't you afraid that I might develop cancer?"
"And I have to have my blood drawn at least four times. I'm quite afraid of the pain."
Qi Yue suppressed his laughter and said, "Radiation examinations will definitely not be that frequent, at most once a year."
"As for drawing blood, that's unavoidable. Now I understand why you used volunteers for puncture practice to punish Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, and the other young doctors."
Qi Yue threatened again: "If you don't cooperate with the physical examination or do something wrong in the future, I will let the nurse practice puncture on you."
Yu Zhiming just grinned...
On the way back to the hospital, Zhou Mo received a call from the nurse at Zhizhen Building, saying that the little girl was crying all the time, looking for her mom and dad, and refusing to eat dinner, and no one could persuade her.
"Want me to persuade you?"
Yu Zhiming got a headache when he heard this.
He likes well-behaved, sensible and pretty little girls, and always avoids crying children.
Even when his eldest niece Xiaoxue started crying when she was little, Yu Zhiming would leave her to her elder sister and stay away from her.
He was heartless. "That little girl was abandoned by her mother and is in a frightening hospital environment. It's normal for her to cry. I can comfort her temporarily, but I can't comfort her forever. She must face this cruel reality."
"Although she is only five years old, she is not too young. She can also know what is good and what is bad, and what to choose."
Zhou Mo nodded, knowing in his heart that Dandan would surely cry for several days in this situation. How could Yu Zhiming have the time and patience to coax her?
At this time, Zhou Mo's phone rang again. It was a call from an unfamiliar phone.
She answered the call and found it was from Dr. Deng Yan, a neurosurgeon at Huashan Hospital, saying that the surgery for the mother of the girl with the ponytail was scheduled for next Tuesday.
"That expert from the island country?" Zhou Mo was very surprised.
Deng Yan replied on the phone: "After contacting the family, they concluded that the cost of surgery in the island country was too high and beyond their family's ability to afford. In the end, they decided to have the surgery performed here."
After a pause, Deng Yan continued, "Dr. Sakurai Akemi is a doctor I admire very much. I took this opportunity to get in touch with Dr. Sakurai and discuss the patient's surgery. It was very rewarding."
"Please tell Dr. Yu that I will do my best to make this operation a success..."
