Chapter 408: Chapter 408: Steal from Old Chen!

Chen Cang was no longer in charge of patients, no longer had to do rounds at fixed times every day, and no longer had to write tedious medical records.

His time was relatively free, mostly dealing with emergencies in the ER, arranging surgeries, and so on.

However, most of the time, in order to observe patients’ postoperative conditions and conduct postoperative efficacy assessments, he would still do rounds, but basically accompanied by the attending doctor.

After handing over the shift, Old Chen handed a pile of over a dozen medical records to Chen Cang, “Let’s go, it’s time for rounds.”

Chen Cang, out of habit, held the stack of medical records when suddenly a thought crossed his mind, that’s not right!

“Boss, I protest, I have an objection, I’m no longer your subordinate physician! You can’t treat me like this…”

Chen Bingsheng gave an “oh,” “I know, then what?”

Chen Cang: …

He was suddenly at a loss for words.

Right…

Then what?

It seemed that he couldn’t find any reason!

Chen Cang couldn’t help but sigh, alright then…

Upon hearing this, Chen Cang immediately accepted the task, and suddenly felt, emmmm… actually quite nice.

Chen Cang suddenly felt that the system was very considerate, feeling very comfortable and enjoying every task, even though the rewards were small, but the feeling was really great.

Actually, if everyone in life had such a system, perhaps everyone would work harder even if it meant being more tired and enduring hardship?

…

…

Among Chen Bingsheng’s patients, many had undergone surgery performed by Chen Cang himself, and upon seeing Chen Cang and Chen Bingsheng walk in, they were quite happy, each getting up to express their thanks.

After all, the success of their surgeries was quite a celebratory matter.

However, now the rounds were different from before—Chen Cang was no longer the “random passerby” or “intern B.”

Even though he still carried around the medical record as before, the patients’ attitudes towards him had undergone a stark change.

After all, Chen Cang was now the attending surgeon for many patients who, upon looking at their incisions, felt extremely satisfied.

“Doctor Chen, if it weren’t for the pain from the incision, I wouldn’t even remember I had surgery—the way you handled the wound, it’s really great!”

“Yeah, Doctor Chen, I feel like my surgical wounds are healing quite quickly!”

…

Hearing the patients’ words, Old Chen knew they definitely weren’t praising him, better not to agree, or it would be awkward.

Chen Cang, wearing a mask, showed no particular expression, asked a few questions, looked at the wounds, and continued on his rounds.

After leaving the patient’s room, Chen Bingsheng pulled Chen Cang aside, “Young Chen, wait… Do you have any plans this morning?”

Chen Cang was startled, realizing he didn’t actually have any surgeries scheduled for the morning, “Nothing, what’s up, boss?”

Chen Bingsheng pondered for a moment before clearing his throat, “Well, I have two laparoscopic surgeries this morning. Can you teach me how to deal with minimally invasive incisions under a laparoscope? I think they look quite impressive.”

Chen Cang was taken aback for a moment!

There’s such an operation?

A mutual learning task?

Not bad at all!

Even if there were no rewards, Chen Cang would have taught Old Chen the minimally invasive incision surgery wholeheartedly, but to get an added bonus for it, an icing on the cake, that was definitely irresistible.

With that in mind, Chen Cang quickly said, “Of course, no problem at all.”

People really are quite different from one another.

When Chen Cang first developed the minimally invasive small incision technique, the hospital took it quite seriously, and had many surgeons come to learn it, but most of them left after watching once or twice.

Many people didn’t take it seriously at all!

Perhaps they thought it was a trivial matter.

After all, the wounds under laparoscopy are already very small, so everyone felt there was no point in further reducing their size, and besides, many even thought Chen Cang and Wang Yong were just two inexperienced youngsters, and some couldn’t swallow their pride.

Probably just to appease the director’s urging, they took a look and went through the motions, then left, not caring at all.

This even caused Chen Cang’s work at the time to go down the drain, earning him no rewards.

It was actually quite commendable for Chen Bingsheng to take the initiative to learn.

The two of them went to the operating room together, and just as they arrived, Liu Jian came out, smiling at them.

“Yo, little Chen, are you shadowing old Chen in surgery again?”

Chen Cang chuckled, “No, no, no, Teacher Liu, this time it’s old Chen who’s shadowing me!”

Uh-huh, no surprise, a light slap landed on his head.

Liu Jian laughed as well, “You rascal, always so glib, but you should learn more from old Chen, he’s got a lot of skills.”

Chen Cang nodded, he couldn’t deny that.

After all, he himself still wasn’t dealing with high-level cases, and could only scrape by with assists; it was nice to sit in on big surgeries with old Chen, just in case… he could snatch some skills?

Thinking this, Chen Cang silently set a little goal for himself, to learn everything from old Chen!

…

…

After some preparations, Liu Jian successfully administered anesthesia.

The surgery began, and Chen Cang took the lead with the scalpel, saying to Chen Bingsheng, “Big brother, the core of the minimally invasive small incision technique actually lies in the handling of the cut, the most important thing is the choice of incision. The first thing to think about is what kind of incision is appropriate, then the precision of the cut, including what needs to be considered for suturing later on…”

Chen Bingsheng listened attentively and wasn’t embarrassed at all; after all, when learning, one must ask for advice humbly.

Since laparoscopic surgery is done under general anesthesia, the two of them talked quite openly; if the patient woke up, they would be panicked for sure.

Old Chen’s ‘incision’ skill was at a master level, and he understood deeply what Chen Cang said, but it was ultimately a matter of concept, which would take some time to adapt to.

And minimally invasive small incisions also need to take into consideration the later suturing, even having to make incisions according to the angle of suturing to prepare in advance.

The first surgery was initiated and sutured by Chen Cang, and in the second one, old Chen was eager to try. Although the results were much worse compared to Chen Cang’s, it was still… an improvement from his own initial suturing.

After finishing two surgeries, old Chen had other surgeries to perform, while Chen Cang had things to do, so he returned to emergency.

Around eleven o’clock, a commotion suddenly erupted between the family of patient in bed 11 and the attending physician Wang Yong.

Chen Cang, seeing this, hurried over.

He heard a tall man standing at the door of the ward, hurling curses and pointing at Wang Yong’s nose, yelling furiously.

In comparison, Wang Yong’s face was flushed red, trying to explain, but clearly, the patient was not giving him a chance!

The man was nearly 1.9 meters tall, quite sturdy, whereas Wang Yong was less than 1.75 meters and relatively lanky.

But!

It wasn’t the physical difference that stopped Wang Yong from cursing back or countering, but because in the hospital, doctors who quarrel or fight with patients are the ones who get punished.

“My dad just has cholecystitis, why isn’t he getting surgery after being admitted? Are you even a doctor?”

“Everybody says online that cholecystitis surgery should be done early. If you wait too long, it can worsen the condition!”

“You said yesterday that we need to complete the examinations, and now that we have, you still haven’t scheduled the surgery. Are you waiting for me to slip you a red envelope?”

“Trash!”

“I’ve seen many doctors like you, just don’t let me catch you outside after this!”
