This is what a society built on relationships looks like.
The system might not be perfect, but there’s no other way around it.
Just like Ji Xiuwen said, the treatnt at the Health Center might not compare to the County Hospital of Traditional Chinese dicine, but if you can learn real skills, it’s indeed better than staying at the County Hospital.
Of course, that’s for those who want to learn. If you don’t want to learn and only want to muddle through, staying at a big hospital would naturally be better.
Thinking of this, Hu iqiao took a deep breath, "I definitely welco you to our Health Center. To speak bluntly, I’m even a bit thrilled. After all, having more top students at the Health Center, as the dean, would make proud."
"However..."
Hu iqiao’s tone shifted as she continued, "There are so things I need to make clear. The treatnt here at the Health Center is definitely not as good as at the County Hospital. Moreover, while you’re here, though it’s said you’re an assistant, you’ll also have to handle tasks like dispensing dicine."
"Dean Hu, I’m aware of that. Rest assured; otherwise, I wouldn’t have sent my resu to you," Ji Xiuwen said hastily.
"Then I’m relieved."
Hu iqiao sighed with relief. She really wanted to keep Ji Xiuwen, but she was afraid he would regret it after knowing the treatnt at the Health Center wasn’t good. So, it’s better to clear this up in advance.
"But there’s one thing you can be assured of. Dr. Lu in our Traditional Chinese dicine departnt is a nice person, very kind. If you have any doubts, with my understanding of him, he’s surely willing to help you out."
Hearing this, Ji Xiuwen was at ease.
Although he had heard from his mother that the Traditional Chinese dicine doctor at the Health Center was nice, it was still just hearsay. He had so doubts, but hearing it from Hu iqiao made all the difference.
It beca the truth.
How could Ji Xiuwen have any doubts now?
However, when Hu iqiao ntioned Dr. Lu, Ji Xiuwen thought of his close friend Lu Xuan, and a bitter smile crept across his face.
Who would have thought that two graduates from Zhijiang University of Traditional Chinese dicine would end up at a Health Center? It’s just the way of the world.
He’s slightly better off—at least he ca voluntarily. Plus, the Traditional Chinese dicine doctor at the Qiu City street Health Center was kind, and he could learn sothing there.
But it was different for Lu Xuan. After offending the departnt head and going to the Health Center, he wouldn’t even get real skills or clinical experience, let alone avoid facing difficulties.
"I’ll have to ask that guy where exactly he went. Once I settle down here, maybe I can help him inquire about the situation. Perhaps he can be transferred to the Qiu City Health Center."
Ji Xiuwen made up his mind that if there was a chance, he would surely lend Lu Xuan a hand.
"Ji, since you’re willing to co to our Health Center, I won’t say much further. On behalf of everyone at the Health Center, I welco you. But, I still want to ask, when can you co over?"
"Dean Hu, you tell a ti," Ji Xiuwen thought for a mont and said.
Hu iqiao quickly replied, "The Traditional Chinese dicine departnt at the Health Center has only opened recently, and it was previously in a standstill. Now suddenly, the number of patients registering has surged, with no less than seventy or eighty patients a day. And that’s with us limiting the number of registrations, otherwise, it would be more. I definitely hope you can join us as soon as possible. Otherwise, Dr. Lu is having a hard ti handling it alone. Even though we’ve just got an intern for the past two days, she’s only here for a sumr internship and will leave after two months."
Seventy or eighty patients in one day?
Last night, when his mother told him, he had so doubts, but hearing the sa from Hu iqiao, Ji Xiuwen was sowhat shocked.
To know, even the skilled Traditional Chinese dicine doctors at big hospitals only see about this many patients a day. Seeing a hundred patients a day is already the limit for the fast ones.
He didn’t expect that the Traditional Chinese dicine departnt at a Health Center could have seventy or eighty patients a day.
Moreover, judging from Hu iqiao’s tone, if they removed the limit on registrations, it could easily be over a hundred a day.
Ji Xiuwen’s first reaction wasn’t about feeling overwheld because of the sheer number of patients but rather joy.
Genuine joy.
The more patients registered, the more cases he could encounter, and naturally, the more opportunities to accumulate clinical experience. Not everyone gets such a chance.
To speak bluntly, the head Traditional Chinese dicine doctor who replaced him at the County Hospital of Traditional Chinese dicine would count it lucky to have twenty patients registered in a day.
Moreover, they might only be seeing simple cases.
After all, for complex cases, few would register with just a head doctor— a deputy head doctor at least would be necessary.
Seeing seventy or eighty, even over a hundred patients a day, is far better than staying at the County Hospital.
Though he still needs to dispense dicine, there’s no need to ask questions during the consultation—asking after work is just the sa.
Such a great opportunity, how could Ji Xiuwen pass it up? He quickly said, "Dean Hu, today is Thursday. Tomorrow, I’ll handle so procedures for leaving the County Hospital, find a place to rent over the weekend, and officially start work on Monday. How about that?"
"Monday?"
Hu iqiao frowned. She hoped Ji Xiuwen could start tomorrow, but understanding followed.
After all, he wasn’t unemployed; he had to handle his tasks at the County Hospital properly. Otherwise, if they didn’t release him, it wouldn’t be good for either Ji Xiuwen or the Health Center.
Moreover, he needed to find sowhere to live when he started working here.
