Chapter 1012: We Believe

There was harmony in the ward of the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City.

“Doctor Qu is here.” The patient’s sister became happier when she got back from receiving a call.

She took an orange, peeled it, and fed herself while she said, “News from the clinic said that Doctor Qu is already on the bullet train and will reach the hospital soon.”

“Is he performing the surgery in the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City or some other place?” The patient on the bed felt worried and asked.

“I guess we have to do it outside.” When the sister talked about it, she looked slightly unhappy while she said, “Nowadays, the hospitals are not willing to take up any responsibility. But it’s alright. I’ve called a private ambulance over. Later on, when the doctor comes and takes a look, we’ll take a ride and go to the appointed hospital.”

“Okay.” The brother was not very excited.

He was a P.E. teacher in a high school in Wuxin City, and he worked part-time as a coach for a basketball team. At the same time, he was also a referee in the province, and he was still very young, so he had a higher requirement on the condition of his Achilles tendon.

The First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City had performed the first diagnosis on him, and they suggested that they could hire a freelance surgeon from Yun Hua, which was why he decided to stay here.

Naturally, it was naturally great that a doctor from Shanghai came over. However, compared to the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City, having his surgery in a private hospital still made him feel slightly worried.

The sister comforted her brother by saying, “Don’t think too much. The hospitals now are very commercialized. The condition of the operating theater in a private hospital is not worse than a public hospital, and the main difference just lies in reimbursement. But if the doctor is good, it’s fine even if we can’t get any reimbursement.”

“Alright.”

The sister smiled and said, “I’m not joking. At that time, when I went to a private clinic, they gave me a book of resumes, and they asked me to choose a doctor. I opened the album and looked through it, and I just picked this Doctor Qu…”

“It’ll be good if you can also as straightforward as this in your matchmaking sessions.” Their parents were just sitting in front of them, and they could not help but say at the moment.

The tension in the room was instantly relieved at this moment.

The sister pretended that she did not hear anything. “Doctor Qu’s skill is very good. In the Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center, he performs at least ten surgeries of Achilles tendon repair technique every month. Your Achilles tendon repair surgery is not very difficult, and we hired him to get a better outcome so that we’ll be more at ease.”

The brother nodded. “I know. I’ve searched about him on my phone before.”

The sister smiled and said, “Right? So just be at ease. This is the best choice we can get at the moment. Actually, if it’s possible, getting Academician Zhu for the surgery is the best. But Academician Zhu is too old, and he doesn’t really perform surgery on his own now… Oh yes, when Doctor Qu comes, let’s not mention these…”

“Of course.”

As the siblings discussed things, they felt better.

At this moment, an associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department and anesthetist came to the ward and performed an examination.

“Doctors, we’ll be counting on you now.” The sister looked around the ward and took out two red envelopes when she saw no one around.

“No need.” The associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department dared not receive a red envelope from this kind of patient, so he immediately rejected it and said, “You looked for the doctor on your own, and later, you’ll be discharged. I won’t be saying anything else. This is your choice, and our hospital also respects your decision.”

“Doctor, actually, we don’t want to go to another place. Can you consider letting us receive the surgery in the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City?” The sister took out the red envelope again, and she whispered, “It’s not money inside.”

The associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department subconsciously pinched the envelope. Indeed, there was no money inside the red envelope. It was a card.

This made him hesitate.

“Sigh, with the channel you used to find the doctor, we don’t even know what situation and skills the doctor you hired have, so we really could not allow it.” The associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department regretfully pushed the red envelope with the card back to the sister.

When the sister saw this, she could only put the red envelope away and send the associate chief physician of the Orthopedics Department off. When she turned around, she smiled in relief. “It’s alright, we have tried everything we can. Since we can’t have the surgery in the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City, we’ll just have it in another place. It’s just a little more expensive, but the main point is that the doctor’s skill is good.”

“Yes, as long as the doctor’s skill is good.” The family members repeated this sentence to strengthen their belief.

Soon, Doctor Qu happily appeared in the First People’s Hospital of Wuxin City.

He was just in his forties, and he was still in the prime of his life. However, since his career in Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Center did not progress smoothly, Doctor Qu had started thinking about working as a private doctor.

He left his information in many private hospitals and private clinics. Although it was against the rules, it was not illegal. Then, Doctor Qu tried his best to smile while he tended to his patients.

As a doctor who came from a top public hospital, smiling was very rare for them to do.

“I’ve read your scans. I’ll perform a physical examination first, and if there are no other problems, we’ll depart.” Doctor Qu smiled.

The patient and his family members quickly nodded.

His sister even handed him a red envelope and said, “Doctor Qu, we appreciate your help.”

“Ah… it’s not a big deal.” Doctor Qu went along the flow and kept the red envelope. Then, he lowered his head to perform the examination.

He had done this kind of basic operation a lot, but when he did it in another hospital, he still needed to perform whatever examinations that he could do.

“Yes, there’s not much of a problem with you.” Doctor Qu performed a general examination and boldly gave his comment.

“That’s good.” The patient’s sister was obviously relieved.

“Next, I’ll call the ambulance over to send him…” Doctor Qu chuckled while he talked about the procedure. Then, he started to introduce the exact content of the surgery.

The sister felt very good. She also smiled and said to her brother as well as other family members, “The doctors nowadays are good. If it’s a doctor from a public hospital, he may not say so many things.”

Doctor Qu smiled and thought secretly, ‘When I became famous in the future, I would ask the junior doctors to explain things.’

When the people in the room spent a happy time together in a harmonious atmosphere, someone knocked on the door to the room lightly.

“Doctor Qu.” Zuo Cidian stepped into the room, and he immediately recognized the bald doctor sitting at the foot of the bed.

Doctor Qu was also very surprised. “Doctor Zuo? Why are you here?”

“Wuxin City is the second-largest city in Changxi Province.” Zuo Cidian smiled and answered.

His facial expression made Doctor Qu immediately remembered the dialogue by those fierce men who smoked cigars and held old-fashioned mobile phones in the cop films from Hong Kong and Taiwan he had seen in the past. They would say things like, “Bro, you’ve overstepped your boundaries.”

Doctor Qu coughed, and he looked slightly embarrassed as he said, “I was introduced by a private clinic…”

“It’s fine.” Zuo Cidian magnanimously waved his hand and said, “Since Changxi Province is so big, it’s impossible not to allow other doctors to come.”

Doctor Qu quickly showed a smile. Then, he asked, “Is Doctor Ling also here?”

“Yes, Doctor Ling is invited to perform a few surgeries.”

“Oh, that’s not bad. What surgeries are they?”

“Hepatectomies, Achilles tendon repairs, and arthroscopies.” Zuo Cidian’s face showed a calm smile.

“This…” Doctor Qu’s IQ finally started working, so he quickly understood what was going on, and he looked at the siblings on the bed.

The sister hesitated a little. She saw Doctor Qu’s face and thought he might need some support. So, she said, “We still believe in Doctor Qu’s skill more.”

Two or three years ago, Doctor Qu performed surgery with Ling Ran, and they performed an Achilles tendon repair together.

At that time, the spoon-feeding technique that Ling Ran mastered was able to satisfy Doctor Qu fully.

Doctor Qu stared at the patient and his family members with an indescribable look, and he secretly sighed. ‘I don’t even believe in myself!’
