Chapter 212: Say Patient, Patient Arrives (Ask for a Monthly Pass)
Zhou Qiao's perfect-level surgical skills, no matter which type of surgery he chooses, playing this virtual e-sports surgical game, he can crush the other party without any doubt.
So, after he played to the first place, he stopped playing. It's not that interesting. This is what the organizing committee of the competition uses for everyone to train, and at the same time enhance the entertainment nature and stimulate everyone's interest.
The reason why Zhou Qiao didn't play was because even if he did, he would no longer be able to improve the level of surgery. Perfect-level skills are already the ceiling of the current medical community on Earth. Beyond the level, the system is not provided for the time being, and it is estimated that it will have to wait for the system to be upgraded.
But for others, this pre-game virtual training game is very helpful.
Not to mention anything else, Murphy and Stephanie found a lot of equal opponents in it.
Their talent is one in a million, even among MDs.
Therefore, after hard training, in the end, they also obtained a good ranking, all of them were within the top 50, and the surgical level of all six types of surgery was raised to the intermediate level of specialization.
Excellent young doctors, with several years of work experience, most of the surgical level is also at this level.
And Zhou Qiao's kellerking, because he hasn't been online for a long time, he didn't continue to accumulate points, but was overtaken by many people and fell to the back of the hundred.
The top ten are definitely at the beginner level of the master level, or even the intermediate level. However, their skills are not practiced by playing this virtual game, but they have reached this level in reality.
Belongs to the best of young doctors.
It's just that the screen names are used in e-sports confrontations, and everyone doesn't know which hospital they come from.
……
After Murphy and Stephanie reached the intermediate level of specialization, they reached a bottleneck, and no matter how much they played that virtual esports game, they didn't improve.
This is also the limit of virtual games, and further up, it is impossible to grow.
After all, this is the level of technology in the real world, not the kind of virtual world in another dimension provided by Zhou Qiao's medical system, which is exactly the same as the real one.
So Zhou Qiao needs real patients, but they can't be available for a while.
He asked Loya to mobilize the relationship to find it. However, most of the employees within the Violent Queen Organization are in good health and have been killed by bullets, unless they are relatives or friends.
On the Chinatown side, Zhou Qiao also asked Zhang Jianjun to inquire, and Zhang Jianjun gave a suggestion, saying that he would let Zhou Qiao have a free clinic.
Zhou Qiao agreed.
Then, Zhang Jianjun posted a message in the circle of friends, saying that Dr. Zhou, a famous doctor in California, is now carrying out free diagnosis for heart diseases, and you can consult at any time if you need it. And the contact details of the iris clinic are attached.
He is a diehard loyalist of Zhou Qiao, and Zhou Qiao also helped his daughter write a letter of recommendation, so after receiving Zhou Qiao's commission, he basically sent a circle of friends every day, and asked other people in the restaurant to also help forward it.
After all, there are many compatriots who have come to the hospital and have not bought medical insurance, and it is a problem to see a doctor in the United States, especially for serious heart diseases. The news of this free clinic is still very attractive.
Although Zhou Qiao can add some points to Murphy and Stephanie in the dream world to improve their surgical skills, there is still a real operation in reality. Otherwise, it's hard to explain.
After all, "preaching in a dream" is a very "illusory" thing for the second daughter, without the practice of the real world, it is difficult to fool them just by relying on dreams.
If you have a basis for real operation, and then use the "dream preaching" to add icing on the cake, then the effect will be much better!
……
It's been five days since the news was released, and there has been no response. Zhou Qiao had no choice but to come up with an alternative second plan, that is, to be cheeky and go to the University of California, San Francisco Medical Center to "borrow" a few patients.
With his current connections, it is perfectly possible to "borrow" patients. In addition to the UCSF Medical Center, there is also the UCLA Medical Center. Over there, he's also very familiar.
For example, Murphy's mentor, Professor Eric Pasente, Dean George of the UCLA Medical Center, and Director of Burn Cosyth.
Although I have not dealt with the cardiothoracic surgeons at the UCLA Medical Center, I can communicate with them in a friendly manner through Dr. George and others.
When Zhou Qiao was about to call to use his contacts in the medical circle, Zhang Jianjun called and told him good news that there was an aunt in her seventies, no, she should be called a grandmother, who was willing to come over for treatment.
Zhou Qiao naturally welcomed it, so he made an appointment with the other party.
In the afternoon of the next day, the grandmother, accompanied by her son, was pushed in a wheelchair and came to the iris clinic under the recommendation of Zhang Jianjun.
Zhou Qiao called Murphy and Stephanie over, moved several chairs, and received Grandma and a few people in the general consultation room.
Elena made a cup of coffee for everyone, except Grandma.
Because Grandma is sick, old, and has heart problems, Elena only poured her a glass of pure water.
Coffee contains a lot of caffeine, which is a stimulant of the central nervous system, which can stimulate sympathetic nerve excitation, so that the secretion of norepinephrine increases, resulting in increased heart rate and palpitation.
Drinking coffee for a heart patient at such an age is undoubtedly worse. Maybe you'll be on the spot.
Zhou Qiao asked for a doctor, learned about his condition and medical history, and by the way, he also laled his family routine and communicated his feelings.
It's just that since everyone is Chinese, Grandma's English is not particularly good, so the communication is in Chinese. Murphy and Stephanie didn't quite understand.
It doesn't matter, some key information, Zhou Qiao will translate it for them. In addition, afterwards, Zhou Qiao would seriously explain Grandma's condition to them, and everyone discussed it together, which was a small consultation.
Through consultations, everyone can express their opinions and discuss specific cases, which can also improve their professional level.
Grandma's surname is Huang, and she immigrated to the United States with her husband and children as early as 30 years ago.
Her husband passed away a few years ago, she is 76 years old this year, very bad health, about 20 years of history of hypertension, eight years ago and diagnosed diabetes, five years ago, because of high blood pressure palpitations, abnormal breathing, chest pain, went to the hospital for examination, found severe coronary stenosis, so did heart stent surgery.
In the early years, because he couldn't control his mouth, his blood sugar was not well controlled, and he developed diabetic nephropathy.
"Alas~, for so many years, I have been running to the hospital, and it can be said that Western medicine and Chinese medicine have never been broken, and they are typical medicine jars. Because of the treatment, the family's savings were also spent, and they still owed a lot of debts. It hurt my two children. Grandma Huang sighed lightly and looked apologetically at her son, who was already in his early fifties. I feel very sorry for him.
Because, his son is also a lot old, his hair is gray, and he has to take care of her, an old immortal.
Although they live in the United States, the salary of ordinary Americans is really not high, they earn American knives and spend beautiful knives, and they have huge medical expenses, and their grandchildren are studying, and they also have to spend money, and the family is already unsustainable, so after seeing Zhang Jianjun's circle of friends, Grandma Huang discussed with her son for a long time and made a decision.
In addition, she has a daughter who is also about to turn 50, but because she married a Canadian and moved to Quebec, she did not come this time.
The conditions of the daughter's family are also average, and after all, she is married, and she has her own family, so it is impossible to provide too much financial support.
This time, it was because three months ago, Grandma Huang's sister in China died, and she was sad, and she was in a sad mood, so she deliberately rushed back to China to give her sister a funeral.
Then, accompanied by his son, he went to the tertiary hospital in the city where his hometown is located.
Examination reveals aortic stenosis.
Doctors at the local hospital analyzed the cause and said that it was the aging of the valve due to age, which led to degenerative diseases.
Since he is 76 years old and his life is rare for 70 years, the doctor recommends conservative treatment.
Grandma Huang was actually strapped for money, so she followed the doctor's advice, treated conservatively, stayed in the hospital for about half a month, was discharged, and followed her son back to the United States.
My son still has to work in the United States.
Returning to China and returning to the roots, there is no way to return. One is that he left his nationality early, his original house was sold a long time ago, and he came back without a house, land, job, or pension, and he was out of touch for too long and couldn't adapt to it.
In the United States, I finally earned a house and a place to live.
Speaking of domestic houses, Grandma Huang regretted it very much, she shouldn't have sold it so early. But at that time, it was not sold, and there was no money to gain a foothold in the United States. At that time, it was sold for more than 200,000 yuan, and until now, it has risen to at least 3 million.
However, they are not the worst, the worst are those who sold their houses and went abroad in the imperial capital back then. I sold the courtyard house cheaply, went abroad and worked hard to accumulate millions of dollars, thinking that I was rich, but when I came back, I couldn't even match the fraction of the original courtyard.
The gap in my heart is indescribable.
What's more, there are many people who go abroad and don't have a net worth of millions of dollars.
Grandma Huang thinks that conservative treatment is quite good, holding a fluke mentality, thinking that this can be delayed for a few years, and said that if it is delayed until the age of eighty or ninety, hehe, isn't it earned?
At the age of eighty or ninety, it doesn't matter if it's really cured or not.
In fact, even if you are 76 years old now, those really poor families in the rural areas of China will not be cured directly.
What's so good to treat? It's just empty of people and money! What's more, there is no wealth at all.
However, who would have expected that after returning to the United States, he would be infected with the flu.
Every year, tens of thousands of people die in the United States from the flu. Of course, most of them are not directly killed by the flu, but people like Huang Grandma who have underlying diseases.
Grandma Huang was infected with the flu and was in critical condition for a while and was hospitalized!
She visibly felt out of breath and had an ultrasound of the heart that revealed that the aortic valve had been severely narrowed.
The family doctor suggested that the only way to solve aortic stenosis was to have surgery to replace the heart valves. However, Grandma Huang is old, has many underlying diseases, and her condition is very complicated, and I am afraid that she will not be able to tolerate surgery.
If you don't do it, you'll die on the operating table.
In addition, the family really had no money to toss, so there was no way, so I was treated conservatively for a few days and was discharged.
This time, not as lucky as last time, after Grandma Huang went home, she had symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath and difficulty breathing from time to time, and she couldn't sleep and lie down at night, and she felt like she was waiting for death and the end was coming.
Her son was even mentally prepared for the funeral, and called his sister, who was far away in Quebec, and told her that his mother would go west at any time, hoping that she would take the time to come and visit, and perhaps, in a few days, he would not see his old mother.
It's just that, unfortunately, Grandma Huang's daughter is also in the hospital. I couldn't rush over to take care of her immediately, so I asked my brother to spend more time and come over as soon as she recovered.
Then, the news of the free heart disease clinic at the Iris Clinic appeared!
Zhou Qiao's fame, because of the hype of Zhang Jianjun, Chairman Zhang, and Tang Yunxuan's boss, is still very popular in the Chinese circle in San Francisco, so Grandma Huang found Zhang Jianjun in the company of her son and came to visit Zhou Qiao together.
Yesterday's 10,000-word update is finally complete.
Today, I will continue to hit the 10,000 words, and wait for me to get up from sleep.
If there is a monthly pass out, help cast a few, encourage encouragement, thank you.
