Path Of Medicine With A System

The older doctors would give Zhang Fan a certain amount of respect. The younger doctors would feel something more unique about him, with various feelings ranging from admiration to jealousy. However, there was no helping this in the medical field. One"s medical skills would be more important than anything. Zhang Fan was the type to keep a low profile, but news of his abilities would still spread.

Back when young people were still students, attraction between men and women was relatively simpler. People would most commonly be attracted to those who seemed cool and/or beautiful. However, things were now different in working society. Although physical appearance was still important, other factors would gradually become more important. The older one became, the more important those other factors would be. These factors included one"s job, abilities, future potential, and so on.

Zhang Fan was now at the very forefront of those in his generation. More and more people had their attention on him. This was especially so for doctors in the medical field. As Zhang Fan increased his skills and reputation, more and more people would come into contact with him.

Shao Hua was feeling pressured by this. Although the female doctors that she just met spoke really politely, Shao Hua understood what they were trying to imply to her. But, just what could she do about it? Was she supposed to tie Zhang Fan to her side, or make him stop being so excellent?

Marriages wouldn"t be maintained by feelings alone. Those who felt that love would triumph over all were far too naïve. Feelings would slowly be ground down by the ha.s.sles of daily life. Only working hard together so that both could keep up with the other and putting in effort together would be the correct way to maintain a relations.h.i.+p. Only relying on one side or being maintained by one side"s pity was something sad and pitiable!

Shao Hua had become significantly drunk. On the way home, she let Zhang Fan support her. This was the first time that she had ever behaved so intimately with Zhang Fan in public.

"I want to ask, will you leave me one day if a woman who"s more beautiful and outstanding than I am tries to romance you?" the drunken Shao Hua asked while looking directly at Zhang Fan.

"Ridiculous. You"re the most beautiful and outstanding woman out there." Zhang Fan lovingly caressed Shao Hua"s face, and then said, "Don"t drink alcohol again in the future. It was my mistake today. I should have prevented you from drinking to all those toasts."

"I"m fine. I"ll listen to you and stop drinking in the future. But, what if a woman who can help you in your job appears? For instance, what if she"s the daughter of an important government leader? Not only is she beautiful, she can even help you get promoted?" Shao Hua was quite cute and silly when drunk!

"Haha, that"s impossible, because it"s unnecessary. I can walk this path by myself. Why must I kneel to others?" Zhang Fan"s aura suddenly magnified. While Zhang Fan wouldn"t be so certain on other matters, he wouldn"t be afraid of anything work-related as long as he could finish improving his skills just in case this mysterious Medical System suddenly disappeared one day! That was why he spoke with such confidence!

Zhang Fan"s confidence also gave Shao Hua quite some motivation. "Hmph! I"ll also work hard! Maybe you"ll need to rely on me to financially support you in the future!" Shao Hua acted spoiled.

"Good. I really like it when you"re like this." Zhang Fan took advantage of the opportunity to kiss Shao Hua"s red lips.

"Annoying~!"

"Sigh! If it wasn"t for Li Hui"s phone call, I"d be a real man already by now!"

"Haha! Look at what you"re saying? Do you really think that you"d only be a real man after having s.e.x?"

"Yes! That"s what I believe!" Zhang Fan pretended to be serious about this.

"What the h.e.l.l is that!" Shao Hua rolled her eyes at Zhang Fan. She then felt embarra.s.sed as she recalled how they almost had s.e.x on that day!

Zhang Fan was almost about to start drooling as he said, "Girl! Then when are you going to help me become a real man? I"ve been looking forward to this for so long!" 

"Dream on. You"ve already missed your opportunity. Also, you"re so ugly down there! Haha!" Shao Hua suddenly let go of Zhang Fan and drunkenly started running forward while laughing out loud.

"You dare to laugh at me?" Zhang Fan chuckled while chasing after her.

Shao Hua now felt slightly more rea.s.sured after his guarantee. However, this was only slight rea.s.surance. Although she had let everything develop naturally so far, she really was feeling concrete pressure now.

Compet.i.tion over resources would be everywhere in society. Those who didn"t work hard would only be able to await generosity from others. No matter what, someone who worked their hardest would at least be standing on their personal path, even if they had regrets!

Shao Hua"s parents had cleaned up the old apartment completely. "Oh my! You"ve been drinking! Look at how drunk you are! You should hurry and get some rest," said Shao Hua"s mother when she saw how dazed her daughter was.

"Sigh! It"s all my fault. I didn"t pay attention, so my hospital coworkers made her drink a bit too much," Zhang Fan told Shao Hua"s mother rather awkwardly.

"It"s alright. I"ll be fine after getting some sleep," Shao Hua remarked.

Shao Hua lay down in her bed. Although she was feeling dizzy, she was unable to fall asleep for quite some time. She kept recalling what the female doctors had said. It would be common for young people to constantly worry about losing what they had. Not to mention, this was Shao Hua"s first time ever having a boyfriend.

w.a.n.g Yongyong"s advertis.e.m.e.nt was quite effective. After he fully recovered from the surgery, he went back to Raptor City, and got a job at the biggest and best fitness gym in the city as a personal trainer. Since w.a.n.g Yongyong was a former professional athlete, the job of personal trainer was quite easy for him. His former teammates were now also tempted to get surgeries done at Ma Wentao"s hospital.

On this weekend, three former professional athletes had now confirmed that they would do surgeries at Ma Wentao"s hospital. Two of them needed knee joint surgery, while the third required ankle joint surgery. All of these were old injuries. Zhang Fan and Chen Qifa confirmed the times for the surgeries, and then started making preparations.

Ma Wentao was quite satisfied with Chen Qifa"s medical abilities. Chen Qifa was now Director Chen of the surgical department. Ma Wentao was already letting him be independently in charge of many things.

The smaller the organ or part of the body, the fewer doctors there would be who focused on researching such a specialty. There were two main reasons for this. First, it would be more difficult to make a major accomplishment, and second, there wouldn"t be enough benefits. Laparoscopy had developed incredibly rapidly for the abdomen, uterus, and so on. For many different surgery types, laparoscopic surgery had already replaced the outdated technique of open surgery. However, for a smaller joint like the ankle, laparoscopy development had been extremely slow.

This wasn"t because laparoscopy wouldn"t help the ankle, but rather because very few doctors would research this specific part of the body. This was even more so in western China, where overall medical skills were weaker. It would be highly difficult to find an ankle specialist doctor here.

It would be simple to understand the basics of laparoscopic ankle surgery. However, achieving a master"s level in it would be highly difficult. The ankle would need to bear the weight of the body as well as help maintain flexibility while strenuously exercising. Thus, this small joint needed to be st.u.r.dy yet flexible. The ankle was a small yet complex joint.

w.a.n.g Yongyong"s former teammate who had the ankle joint injury was younger than he was. The teammate had been a point guard just like w.a.n.g Yongyong. However, when the teammate retired from playing professional basketball, he stopped exercising, and became rather obese. This only served to worsen his old ankle injury.

The teammate had visited many different hospitals and expert doctors in Raptor City already. All the doctors told him the exact same thing: he would first need to lose weight. After losing weight, it might be possible that his ankle pain would be reduced, but there was no guarantee.

The teammate saw w.a.n.g Yongyong"s advertis.e.m.e.nt, and got the idea of having a surgery. Since he was a physical education teacher who was free over winter break, he decided to pay a visit to Chasu City. Zhang Fan gave him a detailed checkup, and also felt that it would be highly difficult to treat this patient. The patient"s condition was already affecting his daily life. Although it would be possible to treat his ankle with surgery, the patient"s body weight was way too heavy. The patient would still continue to feel ankle pain if he didn"t swiftly lose weight after the surgery.

"I can perform ankle surgery for you, which should greatly reduce your pain or even cause it to completely disappear. However, if you still don"t lose any weight, I estimate that your ankle pain will reappear and even worsen within half a year," Zhang Fan informed w.a.n.g Yongyong"s teammate.

"What if I don"t have the surgery?"

"If you choose not to have the surgery, and your weight remains the same, your ankle pain will only keep increasing because this joint is no longer capable of bearing the burden of your body."

"Then should I first lose weight or first have this surgery?"

"You can have the surgery first. Once you"re able to walk again, you absolutely must start losing weight immediately," Zhang Fan told him while looking at the patient"s MRI scans.
