The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 902 Two roads, the first road and the second road. (Thanks to Fei Buhuifei for the monthly ticket~)

Dong Ling frowned as she thought about Li Daniu and Cui'er, two completely different patients, Gan Niangzi and Feng Niang. Her lips were tightly pursed, and one could tell that she was thinking about the differences and similarities between the two.

"Okay, I'll think about it slowly when I have time.

Come on, you guys have been busy all day, let’s go to the restaurant and have a good meal together.”

Li Sanniang took the people from the obstetrics and gynecology clinic that was providing free medical treatment in Changlefang, as well as the constables and soldiers who were patrolling outside their tent, to the restaurant that had been booked long ago for a good meal.

Li Sanniang did not return home that night, but went straight to Changlefang to find an inn and sleep there.

Li Sanniang had a good plan. Ten days before the free clinic, she made special inspections everywhere to find problems and solve them.

By the way, we also deal with patients who are difficult to treat and are admitted by doctors from the obstetrics and gynecology center during the free clinic, and they will be given detailed diagnosis and treatment at the main hall of the obstetrics and gynecology center.

As the free clinic got underway, the day quickly became hotter.

In the large courtyard of the obstetrics and gynecology department in Yongpingfang, the flowers of various colors are blooming, which is really eye-catching.

More than ten days later, Madam Gan finally made up her mind. The purse in her arms contained all her savings. In her right hand she was holding the treasure of her life, Feng Niang. The two of them stepped into the obstetrics and gynecology hall. After explaining the situation, someone led them into the yard.

Feng Niang was still in the same expression. She looked at the unknown yellow flowers blooming in the yard and said to Gan Niang beside her: "Mother, look quickly, they are really beautiful."

Madam Gan's face had dark circles under her eyes, and she had become much thinner in just ten days.

How could Feng Niang, a little girl, know how Madam Gan had been spending the past few days?

Madam Gan cried her pillow wet day and night, and she struggled in her heart. There were only mother and daughter at home, and Madam Gan didn't even have anyone to talk to.

Isn't it that you have made yourself look like this?
Lady Gan looked at the innocent and lovely Feng Niang. She suppressed the pain in her heart and said to Feng Niang with a smile: "That is Forsythia suspensa. When it blooms and bears fruit, it can be used as medicine."

Li Sanniang was not in the main hall of the obstetrics and gynecology department today. It was Chen Yanfu who received Gan Niangzi and Feng Niang.

Li Sanniang had naturally explained Fengniang's situation to Chen Yanfu in detail a long time ago, so when Chen Yanfu looked at Gan Niang and Fengniang, she said directly, "If you agree to let the obstetrics and gynecology hall treat Fengniang, then we have to sign a contract in advance."

Li Sanniang had already arranged the signing of the contract. After all, Fengniang's condition was special and not as easy to cure as other people's illnesses.

In previous years, when the Imperial Medical Bureau held free clinics, there were also those greedy people who risked their lives just to extort a few dollars from the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Even in the center of the Tang Dynasty, not everyone living in Chang'an City was wealthy, and not everyone was willing to take the right path to live and work in peace and contentment.

Therefore, the Imperial Medical Bureau has already developed a complete set of procedures based on the experience of free clinics each year.

Li Sanniang simply added and deleted some details based on the special features of the obstetrics and gynecology hall.

"You can go back to the borough and ask the borough chief or someone you trust who can read to take a good look at this contract. If there are any questions about it, we can discuss it with you.

If you think there is no problem, you can sign it and come early tomorrow. Medical Supervisor Li will come to see Feng Niang." Madam Gan looked at Feng Niang who was eating a piece of dessert beside her. She turned her head and said directly to Chen Yanfu: "I believe in the obstetrics and gynecology clinic. There is no need to find someone to see me. I will sign it now.

It’s just that I.”

Madam Gan took out the purse filled with silver coins from her bosom and said, "These are all I have. I wonder how many times Feng Niang can take the medicine?"

Chen Yanfu stared at the embroidered purse in a daze for a moment, then she slowly smiled and said to Madam Gan, "Because Feng Niang's disease is rare, Medical Supervisor Li instructed that Feng Niang's medicine should be paid for directly by the obstetrics and gynecology clinic.

Some time ago, Mrs. Zhongli Wenlian from the Zhongli family donated a large sum of money to the obstetrics and gynecology clinic. Part of that money was specifically used for people with special illnesses who came to the free clinic for treatment.

You don't have to pay for the medicine and the consultation fee. If you are grateful, you can go to Zhongli's shop more often in the future when you need it."

Madam Gan opened her mouth in surprise and couldn't believe it. "I don't need to spend money?"

Madam Gan signed the contract, carefully inquired about where all the shops of the Zhongli family were, then thanked Chen Yanfu profusely, and agreed on a time to bring Feng Niang to the obstetrics and gynecology center tomorrow. Only then did she happily leave the obstetrics and gynecology center hand in hand with Feng Niang.

Feng Niang's matter has come to an end and the free clinic is also coming to an end, but Li Sanniang is still very busy. Her waist seems to have become smaller in the past few days.

So, what exactly is Li Sanniang busy with?

She was running around preparing for the enrollment of students at the obstetrics and gynecology hospital. Li Sanniang had already mentioned the recruitment of students at the beginning of the physicians' exchange conference when she took the stage.

Now, it has been brewing for a long time, and Li Sanniang thinks that if she wants to do one thing, she might as well do three things at the same time and get them all done at once.

Therefore, the obstetrics and gynecology clinic not only needs to recruit female doctors, but also a large number of female doctors and midwives.

This was exactly what Mrs. Qiu, who lived on the same street as the Li family in Changshoufang, asked a few days ago when she came to the Li family with gifts.

Because in the past few years, the new-style midwives who came out of the new-style midwifery school built by Li Sanniang have indeed improved their reputation by delivering babies in various places in Chang'an City, so Li Sanniang is not worried about the enrollment of midwives.

In previous years, many women who were midwives would come to the obstetrics and gynecology clinic to study for several months and accept the teachings of the female doctors in the clinic. Midwives who passed the examination would be issued a certificate by the obstetrics and gynecology clinic, and could then earn money by delivering babies under the name of the obstetrics and gynecology clinic.

Female doctors are also easy to find. Most of them are girls from families that have been collecting and preparing medicinal materials for generations, or they are girls from drug merchants' families who come to them for help.

After all, female doctors are specially assigned to accompany female doctors in the obstetrics and gynecology hall, and they are all there to serve female doctors and patients. It is most direct and convenient to choose someone from a family who has been exposed to medicinal materials since childhood and has a family background in medicine.

However, there are naturally girls from ordinary families who want to make a living by doing this. When the notice was posted outside the obstetrics and gynecology clinic, many people came to inquire about it.

And where is the problem?

That is naturally the recruitment of female doctors. The first way to train a female doctor is like Li Sanniang and Chen Yanfu, who have learned medicine since childhood and have talent. After more than ten years, they can diagnose and prescribe medicine for people.
The second way is to do what Li Sanniang thought, to open a medical school for women, accept young girls as students, teach them slowly, and screen them layer by layer. After seven or eight years, there will be a group of useful female doctors.

What Li Sanniang has been busy with these days is the first road.

It rained all day, on and off. Although the temperature dropped a little, it was still very hot sitting at home.
