The Enhanced Doctor

Chapter 1221: Chapter 1221: Shanshan’s Father’s Gratitude

Shanshan is very happy now. After the initial shock, he’s already starting to enjoy all kinds of sounds.

In the past, Shanshan never made any sound, but now he happily shouts away.

"Congratulations! Everything’s settled now. You still have a heavy task ahead, teaching him how to speak and making up for the time he’s lost," Liu Banxia said.

Shanshan’s father wiped his tears, "Thank you, Director Liu. If it weren’t for you, we would have really harmed Shanshan."

"Why say such things? Before the results, no one knows how things will turn out," Liu Banxia said with a smile.

"The current result is great. It’s beyond our expectations. But we shouldn’t just focus on being happy; we should remember the concerns we had."

"In the future, there will surely be other kids who say strange things. That’s when psychological counseling for Shanshan will be very important. He must understand that his situation isn’t that different and is quite normal."

Shanshan’s father nodded, "We’re prepared, but we still have to thank you. You’re not like others who only tell us what must be done, but instead, you explained all circumstances clearly, allowing us to understand thoroughly."

"Haha, maybe I just have more time and like to chat usually. Let’s pause the chatting; I need to get downstairs to take care of patients. Good luck, take care of Shanshan’s emotions," Liu Banxia said.

Can’t stay here forever; downstairs must be busy, especially since I brought the two girls over.

"As expected of Teacher Liu, the patient satisfaction is off the charts," Xu Yino said with a smile.

"Satisfaction off the charts, complaints also incredibly strong, almost got sued," Liu Banxia responded.

"Nothing could be done about that, anyone would treat them the same way," Xu Yino said.

"Teacher Liu, how long will it take for Shanshan to learn to hear, and how long to learn to speak? Will it be faster than a child learning from a young age?"

"How would I know that? It all depends on the learning process," Liu Banxia said offhandedly.

"But the speed should be quicker; after all, there’s some learning ability, and he can communicate with sign language. I’m more interested in his memory; it’s rather impressive for a child to remember sounds so clearly."

"That’s great then; good memory will quicken learning," Xu Yino joyfully said.

The same joy for Shanshan; she was so worried back then.

Now more in admiration of Liu Banxia, due to Shanshan’s father’s words.

Shanshan has surely seen doctors before, it seems every doctor shared my previous thoughts, communicating in a commanding tone with Shanshan’s dad.

That’s inappropriate; communication with patients should be gentle like Teacher Liu.

This is true respect for patient choices. Even with slim chances, what if? What if Shanshan psychologically changes due to the cochlear implant, then what?

No one can bear that responsibility; no one has the capability to bear it.

Back in the reception hall, people also asked about Shanshan’s cochlear device adjustment. Hearing it worked well, everyone felt pleased.

Little patients most tug at people’s hearts.

Shanshan is the first cochlear implant case at the emergency center, quite significant.

"Oh, Doctor Liang, isn’t it tough? Why so free today?"

By chance seeing Liang Xiaolin, Liu Banxia approached.

"I also need a break; next comes the official days serving at the emergency center. These times were truly exhausting, unlike your leisurely days," Liang Xiaolin said.

"Qing Kewa’s the truly leisurely one, waking naturally every day, eating whatever she wants, playing with my two little ones when bored," Liu Banxia said.

"Haha, I noticed, Qing Kewa really plans to stay until after the New Year?" Liang Xiaolin asked.

"Firmly decided, now discussing the New Year’s dinner menu with Qiaoqiao," Liu Banxia said helplessly.

"Sometimes I wonder if this girl lives just to eat. Anyway, I’ve warned her; young now, anything she eats doesn’t matter. But in the future? She’ll be a standard Russian aunt,"

Liang Xiaolin glanced at him amused, "That’s discrimination; I’ll tell Qing Kewa,"

"Director Liu, there’s a traffic accident patient coming. With a head laceration and left rib fracture," at this moment, Qi Wentai said.

"Alright, Doctor Liang is here too; we’ll take care of it. Miao Rui, come over, traffic accident patient, assist Doctor Liang," Liu Banxia nodded and said.

Hearing the call, Miao Rui quickly ran over.

After a while, the ambulance arrived.

The patient’s condition wasn’t as severe as imagined, he hopped off the vehicle himself.

"Stable vital signs, collision between electric and regular vehicle, left rib shows fracture signals," the paramedic said.

"Is the accompanying person family?" Liu Banxia asked.

"No, he’s the car driver," the paramedic said.

Liu Banxia nodded, "Let’s examine first, then register."

"Doctor, I’ll register for this Uncle, and I’ll cover the medical expenses," said the car driver.

The driver’s enthusiasm was quite commendable; such situations were not commonly seen.

"Alas... The young man turned too hastily. It’s during the New Year," the patient sighed and handed over his ID card.

"How are you feeling? Do you have symptoms of nausea or dizziness? Do you have any underlying conditions like hypertension, diabetes, or heart disease?" Miao Rui asked.

"It’s just that my blood pressure is sometimes a bit high, nothing else. Feeling a bit dazed, but not nauseous, just that my head is still buzzing," said the patient.

"The doctor just now said I have a rib fracture; is this serious? Will it harm anything inside my abdomen? I’m feeling a bit of pain right now."

"With a rib fracture, the pain is expected. We’ll use ultrasound and X-ray shortly to check what’s going on. Now, please take your hand away, let me see the wound on your head," said Miao Rui.

"The wound is quite deep, and we need to clean and suture it. I’ll give you a check-up to listen to your heart and lung sounds. Let’s suture first, then go for imaging."

After saying this, Miao Rui started to examine the patient.

Everything seemed fine; heart and lung sounds were normal. For now, the head wound was the most concerning, as it was a deep contusion.

Regarding the rib issue, there was less concern. Had it impacted any organs, this Uncle wouldn’t be so spirited.

"Doctor, I’ve finished the registration; what’s next?" the car driver ran over at this time.

"Next, we’ll clean and suture Uncle’s wound, then get imaging. You go pay and wait in line, by the time the suturing is done, the imaging should be next without delay," said Miao Rui.

The car driver nodded.

For the emergency center, this was a minor injury, not a real issue. Had there been no rib fracture involved, Liang Xiaolin wouldn’t have been needed.

Now there was nothing left for Liang Xiaolin, Miao Rui could handle the rest.

"Director Liu, three surgeries tomorrow, can it be done? There’s a partial hepatectomy," asked Qi Wentai.

"Even if it can’t be done, we’ll have to manage. Honestly, if he had come a day earlier, I could’ve scheduled him first. Now, it’s hard to reshuffle the order with other patients," Liu Banxia replied.

"We’ll finish the two colon cancer surgeries in the morning, then focus on the liver surgery in the afternoon. How about you, not planning to study NOSES surgery?"

"Where do I have the time now? So many things as the inpatient supervisor," Qi Wentai said helplessly.

"Give it a few months, then we can rotate duties, and I can slack a bit to focus on surgery. Otherwise, it’s tough to keep up with them," said Liu Banxia.

"That’s workable; anytime there are surgeries, we have to perform. Others can oversee; we have to train using fragmented time," Liu Banxia said.

"Anyway, our general surgery is strong enough; we can handle whatever comes. Now these six are focusing mostly on NOSES surgery, I need to correct them later," Liu Banxia continued.

"That’s enough, don’t exhaust them all," Qi Wentai said helplessly.

"Hehe, their stress tolerance is quite strong," Liu Banxia chuckled.

"Su Wenhao is kept upstairs today, a bit upset for not coming down. No choice, I’m the head of department two, if I say it’s decided," said Liu Banxia.

Speaking in such a ’gang boss’ tone, Qi Wentai also felt a bit helpless.

Considering yesterday’s issue involving Su Wenhao might still affect him, he was asked to care for patients upstairs, to adjust.

Actually, the current prognosis for the emergency department patients was quite promising.

Even if some patients experience postoperative fever, it’s normal, as long as it’s not malignant hyperthermia, it’s fine.

So it’s sort of like taking a break; managing beds upstairs is easier than receiving patients downstairs.

"How’s the discussion with Chief Director Xu yesterday? Should have no issues, right?" Qi Wentai asked.

Liu Banxia nodded, "No issues on a broad sense; just need to tackle some details. I plan to push forward after the New Year, initially focusing on other surgeries, then gradually incorporating NOSES surgery."

"When the time comes, you also pick a handy laparoscopic case, if needed, to support. This is the cooperation between our emergency center and Jinshui District Hospital, with comprehensive coverage," Liu Banxia said.

"Sure, when the time arrives..."

"Beep beep beep... beep beep beep..."

Qi Wentai hadn’t finished speaking when the emergency center alarm sounded.

They quickly looked and saw it was where Miao Rui had just taken the patient for suturing. This made Liu Banxia’s heart skip a beat, "Call neurosurgery."

After saying this, Liu Banxia ran straight towards the treatment room.

The only thing he could think of was delayed subdural hemorrhage.
