Chapter Eighty-Seven: Two Alternates
"Policy: As long as you can poach people, what policy do you want, what policy do I give!" Any qualified hospital administrator will inevitably have a light in his eyes when he hears the title of "Hopkins University M.D." As one of the best medical schools in the world, Hopkins MD deserves such attention. Liu Tangchun is undoubtedly a qualified hospital administrator, as soon as he heard Xu Yourong's question, he jumped up from his stool, waved his hands, and shouted at Xu Yourong, "Allocate housing, settle in expenses, assist children in school, except for his wife and children, everything else can be discussed!"
"Now there are two people who have clearly replied to me that they are interested. Xu Yourong introduced the situation of digging the corner of the wall. "One is a clinical immunologist with ten years of experience, Stephen Pascal, an associate professor at Johns Hopkins University...... "she paused and continued, "asking for primary school degrees for his two sons to help him practice medicine in China with the same salary, and four annual passes that allow him to go to the zoo as many times as he likesβthe kind that allows him to see pandas." β
Sun Lien opened his mouth wide, "Look at the panda?"
"Foreigners, there is always some romanticism. Liu Tangchun waved his hand, "How much is his original salary a month?"
"The annual salary is $160,000. Xu Yourong looked at the list of his records and said, "It's about more than 90,000 a month." β
Liu Tangchun was a little worried, "What is this person's ability? Don't plan to come to China to cheat money because you can't get along in the United States, right?"
"He posted a New England article last year, an immunology yearbook, and he is very academically competent. Xu Yourong replied, "Professor Pascal's main research direction is the mechanism of cellular immune response, and he also has many years of clinical experience in autoimmune diseases. Most importantly, he understands Chinese and speaks Chinese very well. β
"That's a good choice. Liu Tangchun nodded with satisfaction, "I will do the work on Dean Song's side, and these requirements are not a problem." β
"The second ......," Xu Yourong thought for a while, and continued, "The second candidate is Harvard Medical School's emergency medicine doctor, Huck Brunn. He has 15 years of work experience in three different hospitals. Experienced, but ...... Now unemployed. β
"Can a Harvard Medical School graduate be unemployed?" Liu Tangchun looked shocked, "If you have alcoholism, drug dependence, or mental problems, we definitely don't want it." β
"It's not because of this ......" Xu Yourong's face was rarely embarrassed, "Take a look at this photo." β
Sun Lien stood aside and saw a photo that Xu Yourong took out of his notebook.
Dr. Bruun in the photo definitely doesn't look like a doctor. Instead, it looks like a typical "red neck" in the southern United States. He had a golden braid, a bear head tattooed on his arm, and a lush beard.
Liu Tangchun pushed the reading glasses on his face, and looked up at Xu Yourong with a puzzled expression, "Are you sure he's a doctor?" β
Xu Yourong sighed, "Dr. Brunn was turned away from other hospitals because of this. He tends to communicate more with patients and have more contact, so the follow-up processing of each case is relatively slow. After five years in Massachusetts, the hospital did not extend his contract. Other hospitals are reluctant to accept such a doctor. He now spends three weeks a month touring the Caribbean. β
"This should be fine. Liu Tangchun made up his mind, turned to Sun Lien and asked, "What do you think?"
Sun Lien raised his eyebrows, "These two are very experienced seniors, and I have nothing to find fault with." It's just ......" he looked at Xu Yourong and asked, "Their medical experience has been accumulated in the United States, if they come to work in China, can they accept the current working environment?"
"Dr. Pascal has been to China many times, and he should be fine. Xu Yourong also looked a little worried, "I'm more worried about Brunn, although he can also speak some Chinese, but the level of communication is definitely not up to the standard that doctors should have." β
Liu Tangchun suddenly said, "In this way, Dr. Brunn should be the best person to join the treatment team." Anyway, he doesn't have to communicate directly with the patient, with Xiao Xu as your translator, the daily work should not be a problem. β
Sun Lien frowned and asked in a low voice, "Director Liu...... Isn't that appropriate?"
"What's out of place. Liu Tangchun smiled like an old fox who had eaten chicken, "Two experienced American medical doctors are going to work in my department, just with this, it is appropriate to do anything." β
First, he successfully took revenge on Zheng Guoguo, and then learned that two doctors who graduated from top American universities were interested in joining his department. Liu Tangchun happily began to sit in the office and make coffee to celebrate. And Sun Lien returned to the rescue room worriedly.
"I always felt that it wasn't the right fit. After sewing up the incised skin on the patient's hand, Sun Lien said to Xu Yourong, who was in charge of on-site guidance next to him, "Now you are my senior doctor, and those two medical doctors are both experts with more than ten years of work experience, and they are all here at your invitation." Isn't it appropriate for me to continue to lead this treatment team? Dr. Xu, I'm not being polite, I don't have the ability to do this!"
"I don't have the ability to do that. Xu Yourong shrugged his shoulders, "Do you really think these two people are so good? I sent an email last night, and these two people actually refused." β
Sun Lien was stunned, "Ah? Then why did they agree again?"
"Because of you. Xu Yourong said calmly, "I gave them a general introduction to Chen Wen's situation, oh yes, there is also Qin Ya's case." β
"Just these two cases?" Sun Lien shook his head vigorously, "It doesn't make sense. "Chen Wen's case is rare, but it is not a case that can only be seen in China or in the Fourth Central Hospital. And Qin Ya's moyamoya disease is even more common. With these two cases, it is difficult to attract medical students who have just graduated, and for the two doctors who have worked for more than ten years, although these two cases are rare, they will definitely not be attractive or challenging.
"As I said, they're here for you. Xu Yourong knocked on the table to strengthen his tone, "It's you they're curious about." How can a doctor, who has just been working for two months, deduce Cushing's syndrome from Chen Wen's symptoms, and how can he judge moyamoya disease from his body movements? They're just like me. Xu Yourong smiled, "We all want to know how you made the diagnosis." β
Sun Lien sighed and gave up his last resistance.
