Chapter 205 Seeing is Believing
Yu Zhiming, who arrived a little late, quietly mixed into the team behind Academician Tan Ying.
He looked at his three fellow doctors from the United States and quickly distinguished them from each other.
Claude Su, a 47-year-old Chinese American physician with black hair, a round face and medium height, was the first person Yu Zhiming recognized.
The tall, broad-shouldered man with brown hair and a bulbous nose is fifty-five-year-old physician Ged Kanter.
The tall, thin man with blue eyes, a W-shaped chin and brown hair is the 42-year-old surgeon Werner Schuler.
Yu Zhiming also noticed that during the greetings between Academician Tan and others and the three Americans, Qiu Yi would from time to time approach one of the three Americans and whisper a word or two about their introduction.
Only then did he remember that Qiu Yi had studied at Johns Hopkins Hospital in the United States for a year and had just returned to China.
Qiu Yi may know these three American doctors from Johns Hopkins Hospital.
He came here this time to serve as a guide and translator...
In front of the Liver Disease Research Center building, everyone exchanged greetings in English for a while, then walked into the building and took the elevator to a meeting room on the fourth floor.
Because it was not a formal lecture but a medical skills exchange meeting, the chairs in the reception room were arranged in a fan-shaped pattern in two rows, front and back, surrounding a whiteboard and a projection screen.
Qiu Yi sat behind the three Americans.
Yu Zhiming sat behind Academician Tan Ying.
They were all medical professionals, so there was no unnecessary small talk. After Academician Tan gave a brief welcome speech, the medical exchange officially began.
Chinese American Claude Su took the lead.
He first projected a picture of a liver disease patient's symptoms and related examination information, and discussed the patient's treatment plan with Academician Tan and others...
Yu Zhiming adhered to the principle of listening but not speaking, and listened carefully to their heated discussions, even arguments.
But after listening for a while, Yu Zhiming sadly discovered that he could no longer keep up with their thoughts.
Yu Zhiming understood each and every medical English term they said individually.
But when they were combined together, Yu Zhiming was confused.
Because these two medical terms have to go through some changes and processes before they can be connected together.
When Yu Zhiming figured out the intrinsic connection between the two medical terms, he suddenly discovered that there were more than a dozen medical mysteries waiting for him to solve.
At this moment, Yu Zhiming felt that he was not a medical genius, but a complete academic failure.
It was like when it was written on the blackboard that one plus one equals two, he bent down to pick up a pen and when he looked up, he found that the blackboard was already filled with complex formulas and graphs.
This made him dumbfounded.
Shocked, Yu Zhiming quietly looked at the young doctors sitting in the back row.
He found that they were not much better, either with frowns on their faces or confused expressions.
Yu Zhiming also made eye contact with one of the guys. They both smiled knowingly, then quickly sat up straight and pretended to listen attentively.
This made Yu Zhiming feel at ease.
Fortunately, he was not the worst, and there were several people who also did not understand with him.
Yu Zhiming thought about it and understood.
The speakers are all medical experts who have been immersed in the field of liver disease for at least 20 to 30 years.
In order to improve efficiency, they simply simplified the intermediate processes that they thought were too simple or not worth mentioning, and communicated in a way that jumped through knowledge points.
This is a tough job for young doctors who lack knowledge and experience. It sounds really strenuous and brain-consuming.
For Yu Zhiming, whose foundation in the field of liver disease was even weaker, this was like listening to a divine book and a code.
"The level of communication is too high. I'm a complete novice. The barriers are too high and I feel out of place."
Yu Zhiming muttered to himself, knowing that from this medical exchange, apart from realizing the huge gap in knowledge and barriers, he would not gain anything else.
He endured it patiently for nearly an hour.
After Yu Zhiming and others finished discussing Claude Su's case, they took a short break and leaned over to whisper in the ear of Academician Tan.
"Academician Tan..."
Yu Zhiming chuckled at Academician Tan, who turned around, and said frankly, "Your communication and discussion are too profound. I really can't keep up."
"Staying here is a waste of time."
"I want to go back."
Academician Tan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Doctor Yu, you can't keep up?"
In his heart, he couldn't help laughing.
For this high-end medical skills exchange, Academician Tan specially called Yu Zhiming over.
Of course he knew that with Yu Zhiming's knowledge, he would definitely not understand.
His purpose was to let this kid know that there are always people better than you and to suppress his arrogance.
However, what surprised Academician Tan was that this kid actually admitted that he couldn't keep up.
He thought that the little guy would pretend to be serious until the end of the communication because of his face.
Now it seems that honesty and truthfulness are also one of this boy's excellent qualities.
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "Academician Tan, I'm just a medical undergraduate who has only been working for four years. Your communication is so advanced and profound that it feels like I'm listening to a foreign language."
"This level of medical exchange isn't for me. Academician Tan, I'm going back first."
Dean Tan smiled faintly and said, "Doctor Yu, I was negligent."
"You should go back first."
Yu Zhiming stood up, nodded and greeted several doctors he knew, then walked towards the door.
"Doctor Yu..."
Yu Zhiming stopped and turned to look at Qiu Yi who had called him.
This guy, looking very proud, said to the three Americans...
"Dr. Kant, Dr. Suler, Dr. Su, please allow me to introduce you solemnly..."
Qiu Yi pointed at Yu Zhiming and said, "Our Huashan Hospital is recognized as a medical genius, the young and promising Dr. Yu Zhiming."
Yu Zhiming saw that the three American doctors were looking at him, so he had to take a few steps closer.
He said in fluent English: "Dr. Kant, Dr. Suler, Dr. Su, hello!"
"I can't call myself a medical genius."
"I'm just a little bit good at physical exploration like auscultation and percussion."
The oldest, Ged Kanter, looked at Yu Zhiming with interest and asked with a smile, "How good are you?"
this……
Yu Zhiming glanced at Qiu Yi and saw that this guy was smiling with an expression that said "I'm optimistic about you."
He didn't think that Qiu Yi was so nosy just to give himself a chance to become famous. He must have other plans.
However, at this moment, it would be a bad idea to tarnish his reputation. After all, he was recognized as the best young doctor.
Now that you have stood up, you can't let foreigners look down on you.
Yu Zhiming turned his attention to Gerd Kant again.
He pondered and said, "Dr. Kant, I can't say how good he is."
"We have a saying in China that goes, 'Hearing is believing, seeing is believing.'"
"If you're willing to take five minutes of my time, Dr. Kant, I can do an internal examination for you."
Ged Kanter looked at Academician Tan Ying and said with a smile, "Doctor Tan, your young doctor is very confident."
"Is he the descendant of your miraculous Chinese medicine?"
Academician Tan said vaguely, "I guess so."
He then said, "Dr. Kant, our young Dr. Yu is truly unique in his physical examinations."
"My advice is, accept the invitation to be inspected."
"Let me put it this way. Here, there are many people waiting in line to see Dr. Yu but they can't get one."
Ged Kant laughed and stood up.
"Since you, Dr. Tan, recommend it so highly, I've come to China and I have to witness the amazing physical examination techniques of traditional Chinese medicine."
"Doctor Yu, how do I check..."
A minute or two later, a gurney carrying a patient was pushed into the visiting room.
Gerd Kant followed Yu Zhiming's instructions and lay down on it obediently.
A room full of people gathered around the gurney, quietly watching Yu Zhiming perform the examination...
"Dr. Kanter, have you ever had a ventricular septal repair?"
Ged Kanter asked in surprise, "I had a ventricular septum repair surgery when I was seven years old. How could you detect it?"
Yu Zhiming said casually, "The surgical scars left on the heart are still quite obvious..."
After a while, Yu Zhiming began to pat and massage both sides of Ged Kant's waist and abdomen, which lasted for one or two minutes.
Academician Tan knew Yu Zhiming's habits and asked in Chinese, "Doctor Yu, have you found anything?"
Yu Zhiming also replied softly in Chinese: "Academician Tan, his pancreas seems to be a little unwell."
"I need to confirm..."
As soon as Yu Zhiming uttered the classic line "I don't feel well", all the Chinese doctors present looked at Gerd Kant with sympathy.
Sympathetic looks, unlike language, are divided into Chinese and foreign. Gerd Kant clearly felt the change in everyone's eyes.
He asked, "Doctor Tan, what happened?"
Academician Tan first exchanged glances with Yu Zhiming, then looked at Gerd Kant.
"Dr. Kant, Dr. Yu highly suspects you have pancreatic cancer and strongly recommends that you undergo targeted testing."
"This is absolutely ridiculous."
Ged Kant, who was obviously unconvinced, turned over and got off the gurney, staring at Yu Zhiming with his gray-brown eyes.
"Just a few taps and presses can tell me I have pancreatic cancer? This isn't the magic of Chinese medicine; it's a myth."
"Doctor Yu, tell me..."
"Did you look up information about my ventricular septum repair surgery, or did you find out about it from my friends?"
Yu Zhiming met Ged Kanter's sharp, scrutinizing gaze and replied calmly, "Doctor Kanter, as the saying goes, hearing is believing, seeing is believing."
"You don't have to believe me, but this is a hospital. You can definitely get a pancreatic exam to confirm."
"If I'm wrong, the inspection fee will be mine."
"I would also like to treat you and your companions to a sumptuous meal of Chinese cuisine."
Academician Tan also spoke up, "Dr. Kant, I'm willing to use my reputation to guarantee that Dr. Yu is not joking..."
