Sitting in consultation at the United South Chinese dicine Association at the age of twenty-five, who has this ability?
To be blunt, nowadays, among the Traditional Chinese dicine doctors able to consult at the United South Chinese dicine Association, the youngest is almost forty, a difference of nearly fifteen years with twenty-five.
Narrowing this fifteen-year gap to sixteen years, how difficult it is.
Bao Weiya felt that she probably wouldn't see it happen in her lifeti.
As for why Lu Xuan, so young, could co to the United South Chinese dicine Association for consultation, Bao Weiya didn't doubt anything — young as he is, it doesn't an he lacks ability.
The United South Chinese dicine Association isn't a place you can co to just because of connections, it might help in becoming an assistant, but even then, you must be competent yourself because connections alone won't suffice.
It is even more so for consulting, otherwise, there wouldn't only be forty-odd famous doctors consulting there after all these years.
In Yong City, the number of Traditional Chinese dicine doctors far exceeds that.
Chief Traditional Chinese dicine Doctors number in the hundreds, yet only a few receive invitations from the United South Chinese dicine Association, which shows how high their standards are.
Those Chief Traditional Chinese dicine Doctors hold significant positions in the dical field in Yong City, yet even so, they don't have the chance to consult at United South.
Although Lu Xuan is young, it is hard to believe he got in through connections.
If one could enter the United South Chinese dicine Association by just relying on connections, it wouldn't be the United South Chinese dicine Association.
Bao Weiya's reactions were noticed by Lu Xuan; indeed, at the age of twenty-five, unless soone has a special advantage, probably no one else could break the record he set.
The two chatted as they quickly reached the door of Wu Dingzhong's office.
Bao Weiya stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Please co in."
Bao Weiya pushed the door open: "Director Wu, Dr. Lu Xuan is here to see you."
Wu Dingzhong montarily froze, then quickly responded, promptly standing up to welco him: "Dr. Lu, I've heard so much about you."
"I've heard so much about you" — it's a kind of complint. His reputation hasn't actually reached a level that Wu Dingzhong would have heard so much about him unless he had consulted in Qiu City for a year or two. Knowing this, Lu Xuan didn't feel the need to point it out.
He turned around and complinted Wu Dingzhong in return: "I heard long ago that the United South Chinese dicine Association owes much of its present scale and achievents to Teacher Wu's irreplaceable contributions. Seeing it now, it truly is as was said."
People lift others up with praise, and Wu Dingzhong, not being a saint, naturally appreciated it.
Although he sowhat resented Lu Xuan for his earlier boastfulness, they bore no grudges against each other, and since Lu Xuan maintained the appropriate respect toward Wu Dingzhong, Wu naturally wouldn't trouble Lu Xuan over such trivial matters.
Even though he is the head of the United South Chinese dicine Association, to be blunt, any consulting doctor of the United South Chinese dicine Association holds higher status than him. The true head is not him but the District Health Bureau.
In this context, Wu Dingzhong naturally didn't dare put on airs.
Bao Weiya did not linger long in Wu Dingzhong's office; after delivering Lu Xuan, she returned to the first-floor guide desk.
anwhile, Wu Dingzhong made tea for Lu Xuan, motioned for him to sit, and then began: "I thought Dr. Lu might co by later, didn't expect you'd be this early."
"The earlier I co, the sooner I start."
Lu Xuan said with a smile: "It's just as well to take the opportunity to get to know the new environnt. When I first ca to Yong City, I had heard of the United South Chinese dicine Association's reputation, always wanted to visit but never had the chance. Now that I'm here, I certainly want to understand it properly."
Wu Dingzhong nodded slightly: "Your promotional poster and plaque have been put up as instructed. Did you see them when you ca up?"
"There were too many people, I didn't look closely."
Wu Dingzhong laughed and said: "No worries if you didn't see it, Dr. Lu. You can take a look if you have the ti; the contents are the sa as we discussed on WeChat, no discrepancies. Regarding consultancy, your clinic is arranged at room 249, which may be a bit towards the back."
"That's no problem."
Lu Xuan wasn't concerned. On his way here, he noticed that other clinics already had doctors consulting, and Wu Dingzhong couldn't very well rearrange other doctors to room 249 for him.
First, it would easily offend people.
Second, Lu Xuan's fa hasn't reached that level unless one day he becos a national-level celebrated Traditional Chinese dicine elder like Elder Huang, eligible for special national allowances — that might warrant special treatnt. For now, at the United South Chinese dicine Association, he's no different from other doctors.
Moreover, there isn't anyone sitting here for consultation who isn't competent.
Even though Lu Xuan possesses special abilities, it doesn't guarantee he's significantly better than the others.
Hearing this, Wu Dingzhong breathed a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely worried that Lu Xuan might be impulsive and dissatisfied with his arrangents.
However, this was the only way he could arrange it; each clinic has its corresponding doctor, sothing set from the start and won't change due to soone's arrival.
Unless one day, a doctor stops consulting at the United South Chinese dicine Association, and a clinic becos available, adjustnts might be possible.
But generally, the chances of adjustnt are slim.
After all, switching clinics makes it hard for patients to adapt quickly.
"Then room 249 it is."
Wu Dingzhong said: "Also, the materials I asked you to prepare last ti, did you bring them over this ti?"
"Yes, I brought them over."
Lu Xuan directly handed the prepared materials from his bag to Wu Dingzhong, who glanced through them and, finding nothing lacking, nodded and said: "The consultancy fee here is calculated based on your consultation ti and the number of patients registered daily. As the original intention of the United South Chinese dicine Association wasn't to make money but to promote Traditional Chinese dicine culture, generally, the consultation fee won't be high.
But it also doesn't an you'd co here and consult for free; aside from the necessary registration fees, there will be a consultation fee after diagnosis, which will be fully transferred to you. Considering this, the daily inco from consulting is quite acceptable."
Before coming, Lu Xuan had already researched the United South Chinese dicine Association, realizing that consulting here for a month ant only four to five days, earning a small few thousand would already be good, and he hadn't expected much more.
After all, the United South Chinese dicine Association needs to operate and hire people, all requiring money, and it wouldn't all go to the consulting doctors.
The major part goes to the United South Chinese dicine Association.
The consulting doctors are still a minority.
"Additionally, so relatively simple checks can be done here since tests like blood work, urinalysis, and ultrasound can be done if needed during consultation, and the assistant can register it in the system."
Lu Xuan nodded; he noticed this when he ca up with Bao Weiya.
At the ti, he was curious why these checks were available here.
Noticing Lu Xuan's curiosity, Wu Dingzhong explained: "Although the four diagnoses of Traditional Chinese dicine, observing, listening, asking, and feeling the pulse, aren't lacking, in so situations, it's difficult to diagnose solely with them. At those tis, so tests from Western dicine can be helpful, saving patients a trip to the hospital since it's done directly here, which is much more convenient. Many patients suggested this, which is why two clinics were set aside and specifically built."
Lu Xuan realized.
Indeed, this is quite convenient for patients.
Subsequently, Wu Dingzhong continued to introduce other aspects of the United South Chinese dicine Association.
Lu Xuan listened carefully until just after eight o'clock when Wu Dingzhong stood up, saying: "Dr. Lu, your consulting situation here has already been communicated to the registration hall; your consultation details are recorded in the system. The staff will recomnd you according to patients' situations, but since you're new, you might need to be ntally prepared as there might not be any patients signing up under you throughout the day."
"That's fine, I'll just take it as a rest."
Lu Xuan naturally understood this.
Those coming to the United South Chinese dicine Association have usually already picked their doctors, getting registrations directly without saying they feel unwell and wondering which doctor to see.
Thus, he had ntally prepared himself for today potentially being a quiet day.
