"Good morning, Miss Brown."

"Good morning, Mr. Huntelaar...... Hey? ”

After subconsciously greeting John, Miss Brown suddenly stopped her steps and stood there looking at John with a smile on his face.

"What's wrong?"

Glancing sideways at Miss Brown, John asked, puzzled.

Although Miss Brown is a member of the hospital office, because she is usually responsible for sending and receiving letters to John, preparing tea, etc., she is also half of his secretary in a sense, so she is also very concerned about John, a girl who is not beautiful, but full of young vitality.

"No, nothing."

Miss Brown blushed and quickly lowered her head.

Mr. Huntelaar usually arrives at the hospital almost on point, but today he arrived with him much earlier, much to the surprise of Miss Brown. You know, except for the first few days when it opened, Mr. Huntelaar didn't come half the time, and the other half was almost in the office writing and drawing, and rarely came so early.

"Oh, yes."

Seeing that Miss Brown was about to leave after saluting, John hurriedly stopped her: "Miss Brown, from today onwards, I will go to the outpatient clinic or surgery first after I come to the hospital, and I will only return to the office in the afternoon, so I don't need to prepare tea in the morning...... Well, if you have a letter or a telegram, just put it on my desk. ”

"Huh? Yes, sir. ”

Miss Brown was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately.

As one of the people in the hospital who had the most contact with John, Miss Brown certainly knew what Mr. Huntelaar's interests were, and knew that sooner or later he would have to leave the office and go into the outpatient or operating room, so it was not surprising to hear it. But the thought that he didn't have to prepare tea for Mr. Huntelaar every morning. Miss Brown still felt a pang of loss in her heart......

……

First went to the office to change into his white coat, John went to get a set of sterilized hats, masks and gloves, and then came to the outpatient clinic on the first floor.

These things, of course, are not disposable.

In the 21st century, the industry is extremely advanced, and the price of daily consumables like these doctors has long since dropped to an incredible level, so no one cares too much. For example, some of the operations of doctors and nurses. According to the regulations, it is necessary to replace it with a new one every time, but because of the trouble, few people will seriously implement it.

But in 1888, even Heinz General Hospital didn't have the confidence to do so!

In this era, the production efficiency was still very low, and most of the work had to be done manually, which was quite expensive. Not to mention that these things in Heinz General Hospital are all specially made, and the price is even more exaggerated. For example, plastic gloves, which surgeons must not live without, can be purchased for more than three dollars per pair. Who wants to use it once and throw it away?

“…… Mr. Huntelaar, you are in the first consultation room. ”

After meeting John, Thomas immediately assigned him today's office before it was the turn of the other doctors. Of course, everyone has no opinion on this, and they have determined their consultation room today in an orderly manner. To everyone's surprise, Mr. Huntelaar did not go to the special surgical clinic today, but to the internal medicine clinic - and everyone was impressed with his excellent surgical skills.

However, after everyone dispersed, John grabbed Thomas, who was about to leave. He frowned and asked, "Thomas, is the clinic usually assigned by you on the day you came?" ”

"Of course."

Some didn't quite understand what John meant. Thomas nodded and smiled, "Not only the allocation of the surgical clinic, but also the arrangement of the day's surgery is also made by me...... Any questions? ”

"Oh, it's okay, you go get busy."

After a moment's hesitation, John let go of his grip on Thomas.

Looking at John, who was still frowning, Thomas was really a little surprised. But the clinic was about to open, and now was not the time for small talk, so he nodded and left.

"Looks like I'm missing a lot of things!"

As he slowly walked into Clinic 1, John shook his head in thought. The hospital opened not long ago. Many things are still in John's mind, such as the residency system, such as the general hospital system, and the subdivision of medicine and surgery, and the establishment of obstetrics, gynecology and pediatrics, and so on. The current Heinz General Hospital has met the basic standards of modern hospitals in terms of hardware, and is not even much worse than the hospitals of twenty or thirty years later, but not in terms of software. It's just that these things can only come step by step, and they can't be rushed.

But......

"Anyway, at least get ahead of Hopkins!"

After taking a seat in his chair, John quickly made up his mind.

Regardless of the fact that the Hopkins Hospital has not yet been built, John knows that preparations for medical school, including medical school, have been going on all along, and in a few years there will be a great change in American medical education! And what John wants to do is to get ahead of those four bigwigs and make Heinz General Hospital a leader in this change, even the medical school that is still being conceived......

"Gotcha! Get! ”

Just as John closed his eyes and pondered, there was a knock on the door of the clinic room.

"Sir, your first patient is ready."

A young nurse pushed open the door and asked respectfully, "Can I invite him in now?" ”

"Of course!"

John's spirits immediately perked up, and he instantly emptied his head of those wonderful ideas, nodded and smiled.

With the gentle invitation of Miss Nurse, three people, one big and one small, walked into John's office. John stood up almost as soon as they entered the room and greeted with a smile, "Good morning!" ”

"Good morning, sir!"

The man in the lead took off his hat and said hello in the same way. Following his greeting, the ladies and children around him also saluted John.

Beckoning the three to sit down, John looked at them.

The man is about thirty-five or sixteen years old, and his appearance is relatively popular, but his complexion is very fair and clean, and his nutritional status is quite good. And he is tall and thin, if he is a little shorter than John, who is 1.88 meters, but at least 1.80 meters old, he is definitely tall and big in this era. The woman next to him was much shorter, only one meter six at most, but her figure was much plump, and her dark blue dress was propped up to the brim, and she looked extremely incongruous when she stood with a tall and thin man.

Judging from their expressions and skin color alone, both seem to be quite healthy.

But when John turned his gaze to the boy among them, who should not have been a teenager, his brow furrowed...... (To be continued......)
