Come on, Dr. Wu

Chapter 256: First Arrival at Jinhu
Ten minutes and the operation was over.

After Wu Xiaofu washed his hands, he pinched his sister's face and couldn't help but smile.

This is the meaning of studying medicine, and this is the doctor’s mission - to save lives and heal the wounded.

This child will definitely be happy in the future.

Congenital heart disease was a terminal illness twenty years ago, but today, twenty years later, it is no longer untreatable.

Before the surgery to separate the conjoined twins, the cardiology department had already made a treatment plan for the younger sister's congenital heart disease. With subsequent surgeries and medication, the younger sister's future life will definitely not be worse than that of other children.

As soon as I walked out of the operating room, a young couple came up to me.

They are the parents of the conjoined twins. The mother of the child had just finished her confinement. After learning about the child's condition, she not only couldn't eat or sleep well, but was worried all day long and looked very bad.

Today is the day of the child's surgery. They watched the child enter the operating room with their own eyes. Although only half an hour had passed, they already felt anxious as if several years had passed.

They knew that the operation was performed by Wu Xiaofu. Although they were puzzled at first as to why the experienced and famous Director Lin would not be the surgeon, after they heard Director Lin introduce Wu Xiaofu and asked around to find out more, they realized how capable Wu Xiaofu was.

Thinking that their child had such a great doctor to help with the surgery, the two of them felt a little more hopeful.

Before the operation, Director Lin did not tell the family that the operation could be completed in just ten minutes.

They can say what they want but they can't tell others. For the patients, no matter what surgery it is, the operation time must be calculated in hours and doubled. On the one hand, it is to include the preparation time before and after the operation, and on the other hand, it is to prevent any accidents during the operation and have sufficient time to deal with them.

If you tell the patient's family how long the operation will take, and the patient hasn't come out when the time comes, they will only become more anxious. Moreover, if you tell the doctor how long it will take and the patient comes out earlier, the family will be more grateful to the doctor.

Doctor-patient communication is indeed a science. No wonder universities now offer separate courses on it.

"Doctor Wu, them?"

Seeing the cautious look of the young couple, Wu Xiaofu smiled immediately. People, before speaking, smile a little, which is the most friendly. Of course, those who are born with a fierce look don't care.

"The operation is over. It was very successful. She will recover slowly in the future. You still need to pay attention to your sister's heart. You must cooperate with the cardiology department's treatment in the future."

The operation is over! It was a success! So fast!
The surprise came so suddenly that the child's mother cried for joy and fell backwards. The child's father was also a little dazed. Fortunately, Wu Xiaofu was quick to support the child's mother.

Fortunately, the person did not faint.

However, Wu Xiaofu frowned again when he took the patient's pulse. "Your pulse is too weak. You need to rest well, eat well, and take care of your body. Otherwise, you will collapse before the child is well."

Giving birth is actually a very damaging thing, so there is the term "confinement month", which means that the mother's body is the weakest in the first month after giving birth, so she needs to be careful not to be blown by evil winds, and stay away from people with colds.

You also need to take good care of your body and heal it as soon as possible. People who get sick during the confinement period will basically develop a chronic illness that will be difficult to recover from later. If this mother does not recover well, it will be very troublesome in the future.

The father of the child quickly took his wife from Wu Xiaofu and said, "Well, thank you, Doctor Wu. We will pay more attention to her in the future. She has been too worried about the child during this period, and her health has become worse. We will pay more attention to her in the future. Thank you, thank you so much."

Wu Xiaofu didn't say anything more. He gave some follow-up precautions and left.

After the surgery on the conjoined twins was completed, Wu Xiaofu was about to prepare to go to the countryside.

I have to go to school and be away for two months, so a lot of schoolwork and work need to be arranged in advance.

Moreover, Wu Xiaofu asked Yu Shifu a few days ago if there were any doctors in the hospital who were preparing to go to the countryside to see if they were willing to go to Jinhu County. After all, they were going to help Wu Mingjie, so naturally they would help as much as they could.

Bringing a few more talented doctors over there would definitely be of great benefit to Jinhu County Hospital.

Generally speaking, doctors are definitely reluctant to travel outside the province. After all, not everyone is like Wu Xiaofu, who only travels for two months. Most doctors travel for at least half a year.

However, when some doctors heard that Wu Xiaofu was going there, they immediately became interested.

Those who went to the countryside were basically doctors under the age of 35, which was not too big of an age difference between them and Wu Xiaofu. They were still very curious about Wu Xiaofu and felt that being able to go to the countryside with Wu Xiaofu was a good thing and an opportunity to make friends with him.

Yu Shifu promised Wu Xiaofu to ask, and when he was about to leave, Yu Shifu told Wu Xiaofu that there were seven doctors who were willing to go to Jinhu County Hospital together.

Five are unmarried and two are married.

The unmarried ones are all attending physicians, and the two married ones are deputy chief physicians. Wu Xiaofu guessed that the five unmarried ones thought it didn't matter where they went, and maybe there would be some benefits to following Wu Xiaofu.

The two deputy chief physicians may simply be hiding from their husbands at home.

But Wu Xiaofu heard that after marriage, many things are a mess.

Seven doctors, three in internal medicine and four in surgery.

One of them was an acquaintance of Wu Xiaofu, Fan Xin, the only hepatobiliary surgeon. He was about to be promoted to deputy director. This time he would go to the countryside for half a year, and it would be almost time when he came back. He did not have too many ideas, he just wanted to learn technology from Wu Xiaofu.

Wu Mingjie had already taken up the post. When he heard Wu Xiaofu say that he was coming and brought seven doctors from the First Affiliated Hospital with him, he was immediately very happy. He thought that this was his real brother, and he would really come if there was any problem.

The title of attending physician of the First Affiliated Hospital is better than that of chief physician of Jinhu County Hospital.

Besides, isn't Wu Xiaofu the attending physician now? After Wu Mingjie finalized this matter with Wu Xiaofu last time, he came to Jinhu County and began to prepare for the medical work. Once Wu Xiaofu and his team arrive, they can officially start their work and promote the promotion of Jinhu County Hospital.

In fact, Jinhu County Hospital still has great advantages.

Most of the district and county hospitals in Jiangsu Province are Grade III hospitals. There are very few that are still at Grade IIA level like Jinhu County Hospital. The provincial government attaches great importance to the upgrading of these district and county hospitals.

With policy support and Wu Xiaofu's help, Wu Mingjie felt that if he couldn't accomplish this matter, he could just resign.

In fact, upgrading the hospital is a long-term thing. Wu Mingjie certainly cannot rely on Wu Xiaofu all the time. After all, Wu Xiaofu will only stay for two months. What he has to do in these two months is to lay the foundation for upgrading the hospital.

Wu Xiaofu and his friends came to Jinhu County by train.

After leaving the station, Fan Xin and others were also stunned. There really was a convoy to pick them up. They had also heard from colleagues about going to the countryside. Usually, they would go directly to the hospital and there would be people to receive them at the hospital. But this time they came directly to the station to pick them up, and there were so many people. It was really a big scene.

"Second brother, why did you come here in person?"

"Haha, Xiaofu, I've finally got you here. These are your colleagues, right? Come on, introduce them to me."

Wu Xiaofu and Wu Mingjie hugged each other, then went forward to introduce Fan Xin and the others to Wu Mingjie.

Only then did Fan Xin and the others realize that the person coming to greet them was actually the county magistrate of Jinhu County. Wow, this added value suddenly increased. Originally, they came here for Wu Xiaofu, and now that they were greeted by the county magistrate, they suddenly felt valued. Although it was likely that people came to greet Wu Xiaofu and they could only be considered to have benefited from it, it was still quite remarkable.

In the past, when you went to the countryside, you would never get such treatment. At most, the dean would take over, and that was the highest you could get.

They can all imagine that they will be able to walk around freely and live a happy life in Jinhu County in the future.

Moreover, this county magistrate is actually Wu Xiaofu’s cousin.

He doesn't look that big, but he's already the county magistrate. Who said Wu Xiaofu has no background? That's all nonsense.

"Hello, County Magistrate Wu."

"Hello, Dr. Fan, Dr. Liu... Thank you for supporting the medical and health care of Jinhu County. I thank you on behalf of Jinhu County."

Click, click, click!
Wu Mingjie did not come alone. Among the visitors were the deputy county magistrate in charge of medical and health care, the propaganda minister, several other county party committee leaders, and county hospital leaders and staff. It was a huge scene.

Wu Xiaofu looked at the cameras and knew that Wu Mingjie was trying to build momentum, so he tried his best to cooperate. After people heard about what happened today, everyone would probably know that Wu Mingjie was going to make a move in the field of medical and health care, and it was also sending a signal.

This is a good signal. The first thing the new county magistrate has to do is something related to the medical industry. This will definitely not be too feared by others. I am afraid they will have to support it. See, isn’t this the wisdom of being an official? Wu Mingjie made a good choice.

"Come on, get in the car, get in the car, I've arranged dinner, we can eat and talk."

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. The eight people had set out in the morning and were hungry now. Naturally, they appreciated Wu Mingjie's personal treat.

On the way to dinner, Wu Mingjie, Wu Xiaofu, Deputy County Mayor Wen who was in charge of medical care, and the director of the county hospital were sitting in a car.

"Doctor Wu, I really didn't expect you to come to our Jinhu County Hospital for an inspection. When the county magistrate told me, I was so excited. Thank you, county magistrate, and thank you, Doctor Wu. Don't worry, Doctor Wu, when we get to the hospital, we will definitely cooperate with you in your work."

Dean Fei Jinpeng's words were not entirely flattering. Among the people present, perhaps others did not know how powerful Wu Xiaofu was, but he was the famous Wu Xiaofu in the medical field. If anyone in the medical field did not know him, they would be unqualified.

Fei Jinpeng knew that, regardless of anything else, with Wu Xiaofu's arrival, their Jinhu County Hospital would be able to rise to a higher level just based on Wu Xiaofu's reputation.

This is truly a great honor and achievement for him. He also follows Wu Xiaofu's blog. With such a large fan base, that must be a huge number of patients. I'm afraid that after the news that Wu Xiaofu has arrived at Jinhu County Hospital spreads, the number of patients at Jinhu County Hospital will skyrocket.

What is the foundation of a hospital?
It's the patient.

Why is it difficult for the county hospital to develop now? Isn't it because there are not enough patients? As a county medical center, the current county hospital can only take on patients with minor colds and the like, some patients who cannot leave or do not have the financial conditions to leave the county. As long as they have some ability or the patients with slightly more serious diseases, they will go directly to larger hospitals.

At least it has to be a HA city hospital. Even though the economic conditions and transportation conditions have improved, it doesn't seem to be such a good thing for the hospital.

Without patients, doctors cannot get training and grow, and hospitals will have no income. Both of these are fatal, let alone carrying out more scientific research projects and introducing new technologies.

In the long run, it would be good if we don’t regress, let alone make progress.

Is it that Fei Jinpeng does not want to develop the county hospital? No, it is because he has limited ability. A good cook cannot cook without rice. Moreover, the current leaders all regard economic development as the top priority. Who would pay attention to medical and health care?

In other words, he was lucky this time, as he met the county magistrate Wu Mingjie. No, I'm afraid he got this opportunity because Wu Xiaofu happened to be going to the countryside.

The news that Wu Xiaofu was coming to Jinhu County had been spread for a week.

After hearing the news, many patients in the county, especially those in the general surgery department, were so excited that they stayed immediately. Some even booked hospitalization in advance and started preoperative examinations, waiting for Wu Xiaofu to arrive so that they could have the surgery right away.

Anyone would want to enjoy the country's top medical care right at their doorstep.

What's more, Wu Xiaofu actually brought so many medical elites.

Except for Fan Xin and Wu Xiaofu, who are all hepatobiliary surgeons, the other seven doctors are elites in their respective departments.

There are three internal medicine departments: neurology, cardiology, and respiratory medicine, one in each department.

There are four surgical departments, one for each department: hepatobiliary surgery, neurosurgery, urology, and orthopedics.

Even though they are all attending physicians and associate chief physicians, they are all elites. The First Affiliated Hospital never wants useless doctors. During the attending physician stage, they are almost able to perform all the surgeries in various departments.

That is, some top-notch surgeries, but perhaps not very skilled.

After these seven doctors entered Jinhu County Hospital, their seven departments were able to open directly.

That’s right, it’s open.

It's embarrassing to say that before Wu Xiaofu and his team came, the departments of Jinhu County Hospital were not divided so finely. There were only five departments: general internal medicine, general surgery, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, and orthopedics. The wards in each department were very large, but most of the beds were empty.

The hospital is actually very large, but its utilization rate is not high.

It’s not that they don’t want to develop various departments, but the doctors and patients don’t meet the standards for development.

Now it’s good, we can start right away.

In the general internal medicine department, respiratory medicine, cardiology and neurology are directly divided; in the general surgery department, hepatobiliary surgery, breast and thyroid surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, neurosurgery and urology are also directly divided.

There is enough office space, and each department can be equipped with fifty beds.

You know, the government has actually put a lot of effort into medical construction. Even the county hospital is very large. Jinhu County Hospital was rebuilt four years ago and is more luxurious than the old hospitals in the city.

The medical equipment was basically complete, but many of them had not been used and were covered in dust. This time they were finally taken out of the warehouse.

Shortly after Wu Mingjie took office, he talked to Fei Jinpeng and learned about the situation of the county hospital.

Then he told Wu Xiaofu and asked him to think about how to further staff the area and he would find a solution.

This is to help his second brother, Wu Xiaofu will definitely do his best.

In a hospital, the most important thing is of course the doctors. If the medical level is not up to standard, everything will be in vain. Although they are here, they are only temporary. Therefore, the most important thing for Jinhu County Hospital is to recruit a group of doctors as soon as possible.

In order to promote Wu Mingjie, Wu Xiaofu directly asked Yu Shifu for help and turned Jinhu County Hospital into a cooperative hospital of the First Affiliated Hospital of Donghai City and an aid hospital. Wu Xiaofu and his team came here to both go to the countryside and provide assistance. Even if Wu Xiaofu and his team left, when someone from the hospital goes to the countryside in the future, Jinhu County will be given priority. Therefore, this is a long-term assistance strategy.

Apart from this one, the other assistance standards are basically covered.

We have the services of inviting surgeons, consulting doctors, etc. Therefore, Jinhu County Hospital can boldly keep all its patients in the local area in the future.

You know, the population of Jinhu County is really not low, more than 500,000 people. Wu Xiaofu was shocked when he heard it. Some cities in their northern district have this many people. This population base is enough to support a third-level hospital.

Is it difficult to recruit doctors? Actually, it is not difficult.

The two big banners of Wu Xiaofu and the First Affiliated Hospital of Donghai are still very attractive, and Wu Mingjie has directly introduced several policies to attract talents. The threshold is a master's degree student. If they come to work, they will be given a house directly. Of course, there are definitely routines. They have to work for 30 years before the house can belong to them completely.

But this is also amazing. Houses in Jinhu are still a bit expensive.

Medical students are poor, so this temptation is really great.

Then there are other policies for attracting talents. The salary bonus is the maximum, and they are convinced that if they do a good job, they can be trained to become department leaders. For subsequent study and training, they can go directly to the First Affiliated Hospital of Donghai University, etc. How can a newly graduated master's student not be tempted?

They are also quietly told that they will be assigned a partner, which makes them even more attracted.

Moreover, there are actually quite a few medical students from Jinhu who go abroad to study, and they can also do the work for the family members of these medical students. With these two factors combined, Jinhu County Hospital quickly recruited many grassroots doctors.

The basic framework of each department was set up all at once.

The middle-level forces are not so easy to fool, so they can only be poached by spending money. Wu Mingjie specially approved that Deputy County Mayor Wen go to the city to recruit talents personally, and soon recruited more than a dozen deputy directors and directors from various departments.

These directors did not come here for the favorable conditions promised to them by the county. They came back to build their hometown. That's right, Deputy County Chief Wen also specifically selected doctors from Jinhu to do the work, and the effect was amazing.

The main reason is that they saw the development prospects of Jinhu County Hospital, which is seriously planning to upgrade. They have also reached a support policy with the First Affiliated Hospital of Donghai City. Even Wu Xiaofu has come. With favorable conditions, they are naturally willing to come.

Wu Mingjie has done a lot of things in less than a month since he took office. Of course, the county magistrate just opens his mouth and his subordinates run around, so Wu Mingjie has only grasped the general direction. However, the results are remarkable. Eight newly opened departments have already started operations.

As soon as Wu Xiaofu and the others arrived, he began to display his magical powers.

Wu Mingjie had told Wu Xiaofu all these things over the past few days, which made Wu Xiaofu feel relieved. With these basics, he could be of some use if he worked hard.

On the way here, Wu Xiaofu also posted his latest updates on his blog, Jinhu County Hospital.

After seeing Wu Xiaofu's updates, the happiest people were the fans from Sujiang Province.

Many people said that if they get sick or someone around them gets sick, they will go directly to Jinhu County Hospital.

"President Fei, you are joking. You are the president. You are the one who controls the general direction. We should fully cooperate with you. By the way, President, please tell me about the current situation of the patients in the general surgery department. I feel itchy if I don't perform surgery for a day."

Fei Jinpeng was even happier to see Wu Xiaofu giving him so much face.

Look at Wu Xiaofu, a prince of his level, rare in the country. I originally thought that he would be a little arrogant and difficult to get along with. But now it turns out that he knows how to behave and leaves enough room for others.

Fei Jinpeng also comes from the clinical field, so he understands the mentality of these surgeons. Many of them are not used to performing surgery.

Fei Jinpeng will not let Wu Xiaofu down either.

"Doctor Wu, we started admitting patients in advance when we knew you were coming. Right now, there are six liver cancer patients in our department, one with gallbladder cancer, and one with pancreatic cancer. The gallbladder cancer patient has metastasized to the liver, and the pancreatic cancer patient's cancer is in the head of the pancreas. Others include appendicitis, gallstones, and bile duct stones, and we have more than 30 appointments.

These are patients from the hepatobiliary surgery department, and the gastrointestinal surgery department and the thyroid and breast surgery department. It's similar. Cancer patients would not stay here before, but this time, almost all those who can undergo surgery have come. Some have even come from surrounding counties and districts. They are just waiting for you.

As for whether it meets the surgical criteria, I'd like you to take a look at it."

Hey!
There are really quite a few. This is the advantage of a large population base. Normally, some small hospitals don't seem to have many patients, but that doesn't mean there are not many local patients or seriously ill patients. It's just that if they are really sick, people won't even pass by the door of your county hospital, but go directly to the municipal hospital, provincial hospital, or even better places.

With this patient base, Wu Xiaofu's trip was not in vain. As for the promotion of the tertiary hospital, that was not his business. Wu Mingjie was in charge. He would help in whatever way he could. His main task was to cure diseases and save lives.

"Then we will start gathering the patients tomorrow and perform surgeries on them as soon as possible."

Fei Jinpeng naturally agreed when he heard this. This was a good opportunity for the hospital to become famous. He had even thought of a promotional title.

Jinhu County Hospital independently completed the first laparoscopic liver cancer resection.

Jinhu County Hospital independently completed the first laparoscopic radical resection of gallbladder cancer.

Jinhu County Hospital independently completed the first laparoscopic radical resection of pancreatic cancer.

Jinhu County Hospital independently completed the first radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Jinhu County Hospital independently completed the first radical thyroid cancer surgery.

……

Wow, once these operations were done and the news spread, even though Jinhu County Hospital is still a Class II hospital, it definitely looks like a top Class III hospital.
