The Enhanced Doctor

Chapter 1228: Chapter 1228: Liu Yiqing’s Self-Challenge (Part 1)

(Thanks to Zilian Shijiu for the encouragement from Slim Moon.)

"Teacher Liu, if they come, you can admit them, at least it will help us fill the database a bit."

Liu Yiqing said.

"I knew you would think that way, because we are doctors, we have the power to refuse patients, but not to choose them." Liu Banxia nodded.

"You don’t need to worry about this patient, let Su Wenhao be responsible. How’s the surgery this afternoon? Can you still go up? There’s a lot to manage."

"Teacher Liu, I’m fine." Liu Yiqing said seriously.

"OK, wash your face, adjust a bit, and then prepare to go on stage." Liu Banxia nodded with a smile.

This is a truly competent soldier; they can overcome even small problems.

Being a doctor really requires self-adjustment in emotions. Otherwise, if you are constantly affected, it might impact subsequent consultations and surgeries.

"No problem?" Wang Chao asked.

"No problem, what about her brother?" Liu Banxia asked.

"Just left, probably coming over this afternoon for admission. Asked me about some things, I handled them vaguely." Wang Chao said.

"Her brother’s personality is definitely different from hers. He even asked if there are discounts for doctors’ relatives, thinking about this at such a time."

"What did you say?" Liu Banxia asked with a smile.

"I had no choice but to say no." Wang Chao said.

"But he probably also asked a lot before coming, asked some other questions, he might bother Liu Yiqing then, let her be mentally prepared."

Liu Banxia nodded, Liu Yiqing’s brother indeed can do such things.

Everyone thinks differently; not everyone can empathize with others. If you encounter selfish people, they can indeed lower your standards.

After he finished tidying up and went to the operating room, the patient was already prepared.

"Teacher Liu, everything has been checked." Su Wenhao said.

"Alright, don’t worry, just sleep for a bit. We’ll see the specific situation after the pathology results. The surgery isn’t complicated, just a bit tedious." Liu Banxia said to the patient.

The patient nodded.

Liu Banxia gave anesthetist Xu Jie a look, and he started the anesthesia directly.

"OK, how are you two going to divide the work?"

After the anesthesia succeeded, Liu Banxia asked.

"Teacher Liu, my task today is the first assistant." Su Wenhao said.

"Then it’s up to Liu Doctor, not sure how Liu Doctor’s grasp on TaTME surgery is." Liu Banxia said casually.

"Teacher Liu, I’ve been working hard to learn." Liu Yiqing said.

"It’s because I know you’re working hard, so I let you both come up here." Liu Banxia said.

"Let me tell you a bit about my training plan for the first half of the year. Basically, right after the Spring Festival, we’ll confirm the cooperation with Jinshui District Hospital, you’ll be a bit busy then."

"Then, around April and May, we’ll try some steps of the NOSES surgery. For example, performing a distal purse-string closure of the tumor bowel, entering the pre-Waldeyer fascia plane for mesorectal excision."

"Handling inferior mesenteric vessels, excising specimens, removing specimens, anastomosing bowel manually, you need to get involved."

While operating, Liu Yiqing frowned, this big devil is really disruptive.

What he’s talking about is basically the whole operation process of TaTME surgery, even if just picking the key points.

The problem is when he talks, she can’t help but think about it, then her hand operations slow down a bit.

"Ah... Teacher Liu, the adhesion is quite severe." Liu Yiqing said.

"Severe adhesion also needs to be separated, we can’t shout at it to separate on its own." Liu Banxia said irresponsibly.

"Dr. Xu, have the scheduling plans for your anesthesia department been sorted out for this year? Much better than last year, last year we were a bit short-staffed. Much stronger this year, right?"

"Already sorted, but no drinking allowed, must be ready for calls anytime." Xu Jie said with a smile.

"That’s fine then, I can’t do it, I have to always be here. The six of them also can’t, they can only rest limitedly." Liu Banxia said.

"By usual experience, during New Year either no accidents or if there are, it’s usually big accidents. Mostly related to car accidents, not easy to handle."

"Hey, Liu Yiqing is separating well, judging by this, I might only be an hour and a half late for getting off work." Liu Yiqing gritted her teeth, knowing it’s his sarcastic tone.

But there’s no other way. This patient’s adhesions are too severe, and she’s reached her limit.

She doesn’t have Liu Banxia’s precision and speed, and this is the most difficult freeform case she’s faced independently.

"Su Wenhao, there will be a patient who needs Liu Yiqing to avoid being here for the TaTME surgery; you’ll be responsible," Liu Banxia continued.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiqing’s operating speed noticeably slowed down.

"Teacher Liu, no problem," Su Wenhao replied.

Xu Jie was puzzled, not knowing why Liu Banxia was giving Liu Yiqing so much interference today.

After all, this could have been said after surgery, but now it’s affecting Liu Yiqing.

After a moment of thought, he understood.

This is still Liu Banxia’s "favoritism" towards Liu Yiqing. Usually, they are accustomed to pressure and distraction training. For Liu Yiqing, today’s pressure and impact will be the greatest.

If she can still complete the surgery to a standard, even if she’s slower than usual, it will be greatly beneficial for her growth.

This is the situation when learning under Liu Banxia: He won’t let you have it so easy, with everything going smoothly.

He will set many obstacles for you to face and conquer.

Perhaps this is why all six of them perform exceptionally well. Being tormented by Liu Banxia every day, they can handle situations with ease.

"Ah... this cut... not bad," Liu Banxia commented again.

"No matter what you say, I’ll just let it go in one ear and out the other. If I get home late, it’s not my fault; blame the severe adhesions," Liu Yiqing retaliated slightly.

"Would you like some concessions? I actually have some permissions," Liu Banxia replied again.

"I’m just a resident doctor; that’s for leadership to decide," Liu Yiqing countered without any loss, unshaken in her procedure.

"Actually, with severe adhesions, as long as you’re careful, it’s manageable. This is common during surgery, and fortunately, this surgery was done promptly for this patient."

"Teacher Liu, can I do as much as I can, and when I can’t hold on anymore, you take over? I want to challenge myself."

Hearing Liu Yiqing’s words, many in the operating room turned to look at Liu Banxia.

This is a self-challenge by Liu Yiqing, and it’s half-liver resection surgery, a complex task. The patient’s severe adhesions naturally complicate things further.

Liu Yiqing’s challenge is to complete the surgery independently.

This isn’t just a test of skill, but of stamina and resolve.

"I have no problem," Liu Banxia said with ease.

The interns observing in the viewing room jumped in surprise upon hearing him.

Teacher Liu’s courage is indeed as legendary as they say.

Though this operation is compliant, as Liu Banxia has surgical clearance and can supervise, Liu Yiqing is still a resident. Can she really finish such a complicated major surgery?

And finishing isn’t the goal; the quality of the surgery must be ensured.

Although Liu Banxia agreed with ease, he was now focused. Some tissue separations are still tricky, which he initially planned to handle personally.

Now that Liu Yiqing has issued a self-challenge, providing her the opportunity, he needs to ensure her journey is smooth.

She’s a strong-headed girl, taking on a high-difficulty surgery as soon as her brother arrives. Even if it means staying three hours late, he’ll accompany her through it.

This is Liu Yiqing’s self-challenge, and the interns in the observatory began calling others to witness this miraculous moment.

The emergency center continues to shatter records.

If Liu Yiqing completes the entire procedure well, it would be remarkable.

"Qingqing, the observatory is quite crowded," Liu Banxia glanced up and said with a smile.

"I’m not afraid; I just need to focus on the surgery," Liu Yiqing said, eyes fixed on the screen.

"See this? That’s Liu Yiqing’s operation. Though not fast, it’s very steady. She also has unwavering confidence, which is even more commendable," Liu Banxia said aloud.

"I hope you remember, after the surgery, not just that Liu Yiqing completed a right hepatectomy independently, but her performance during the surgery."

This is encouragement for Liu Yiqing, hinting that she can finish this surgery independently, boosting her confidence.

He was sweating a bit now because this isn’t a guided surgery. Liu Yiqing has to finish it alone, meaning he can’t give any guidance during the procedure.

Unlike before, where, though they operated many times, he gave auxiliary guidance from the side.

Now Liu Yiqing faces true independence, and this is the support he can offer to build her confidence.

As for the result, it’s currently a question mark.

It seems her brother’s visit truly affected her. If Xu Yino can do this, the old Liu Yiqing wouldn’t; she had to push herself to do so.
