Chapter 660: Demonstrating Medical Skills
After Dean Liu finished speaking with Director Li, he looked expectantly at Ye Rufeng and Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi couldn't make this decision on her own. She looked at Ye Rufeng and asked respectfully, "Grandpa, do you have time to visit the military hospital?"
Ye Rufeng met the gazes of the three men, remained silent for a moment, and then had no choice but to speak, "Since you are so kind as to refuse, I have to agree. Once you have arranged a time, we can go and take a look."
Upon receiving Ye Rufeng's affirmative answer, Dean Liu and Director Li breathed a sigh of relief. "That's wonderful! Thank you, Dr. Ye, for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit our hospital."
Dean Liu and Director Li exchanged many pleasantries, but ultimately did not discuss the matter of establishing a renowned doctor's studio that they had previously proposed to Bai Zhi.
They were clearly cautious, but the fact that they personally invited Dr. Ye to visit the hospital was already a gesture of goodwill.
Ye Rufeng readily agreed.
And so it was decided.
"How about tomorrow afternoon then?" Director Li was afraid that if it was delayed too long, something might change. He smiled and looked at Ye Rufeng, "I wonder if Dr. Ye is free tomorrow?"
Ye Rufeng said, "The day after tomorrow, I have an appointment with a patient tomorrow."
Dean Liu said, "Alright, then we'll do as Dr. Ye says. We'll set it for the day after tomorrow."
"Then it's settled. We'll contact Dr. Xiaobai by phone."
Just then, two patients walked in.
Originally, Dean Liu and Director Li were about to leave, but when they saw a patient coming over, they exchanged a glance and sat down to the side.
Waiting for Ye Rufeng to examine the patient.
"Dr. Ye, I came here yesterday." As soon as the woman approached Ye Rufeng, she quickly took out an examination report.
Bai Zhi also recognized her as the older sister who had come in for a medical check-up yesterday.
The woman took out an ultrasound report and gave it to Ye Rufeng.
"This is the ultrasound report I had done at the county hospital, following your advice."
"Dr. Ye, I do indeed have uterine fibroids."
The woman was excited, her tone revealing a sense of relief amidst misfortune, "You are truly a miracle doctor! You were able to diagnose my uterine fibroids just by feeling my pulse. You are even more accurate than the machines in the hospital."
If she hadn't wandered in yesterday and had Dr. Ye take her pulse, she would never have guessed that she had some kind of illness.
At this moment, the man next to her spoke up, "Doctor, is my wife's condition serious? Can she get better with traditional Chinese medicine?"
Yesterday, his wife came home and insisted that she had a tumor in her stomach and wanted to go to the hospital for an ultrasound. He scolded her for it.
He was even angrier when he heard that the diagnosis was made by a doctor at a newly opened clinic on the street, and he found it unbelievable.
These quack doctors must be deliberately making alarming claims and diagnosing frightening illnesses just to make money off them.
He almost came to the clinic to cause trouble yesterday afternoon.
But my wife said she's always had gynecological problems and doesn't know where to go for treatment, so she can only endure it.
She firmly believed that he was not a quack doctor, because Dr. Ye had said to do the examination first, and then prescribe the medicine.
He couldn't resist his wife's insistence, and the two eventually had a fight. He decided to spend money to get his wife an ultrasound today, and if there was no tumor, he would come and cause trouble, driving away these quack doctors from out of town who came to their county to swindle money.
To his surprise, his wife's ultrasound revealed that she did indeed have uterine fibroids.
The hospital said that if I wanted treatment, I would have to be hospitalized and undergo surgery.
Their county hospital has limited resources, so it would be best to have the surgery done at the city hospital.
He broke out in a cold sweat on the spot.
Surgery is no small matter.
His wife had a tubal ligation procedure done two years ago.
Now they're going to cut me a second time.
The key issue is that the surgery is expensive and carries risks.
His wife said with great certainty that Dr. Ye would definitely cure him.
The doctor was able to diagnose her uterine fibroids simply by observing, listening, asking, and feeling the pulse; his medical skills must be superb.
So, they came here as soon as they left the hospital.
Ye Rufeng replied, "Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is relatively slow, so if you want to get treatment, you have to be prepared. In addition, daily self-care is also very important. You need to have a harmonious family environment and not get angry all the time. Most of the women's illnesses come from their emotions."
The woman felt exactly what Ye Rufeng said.
Isn't she always sulking?
She quickly promised, "I will definitely be more open-minded and less easily angered in the future."
Seeing Ye Rufeng's demeanor and his professionalism in diagnosing illnesses, the man realized that he really didn't seem like a fraud.
The key point is that this clinic actually has patients.
Those two sitting in the chairs are clearly officials.
They all come to this old man for treatment, so he must be a quack.
The man's expression softened.
The woman said, "Dr. Ye, please prescribe some medicine for me."
"good."
Ye Rufeng personally wrote out a prescription and handed it to Zhou Lin.
Bai Zhi said she would get the medicine and asked Zhou Lin to use an abacus to calculate the bill.
Bai Zhi quickly prepared ten doses of traditional Chinese medicine, "one dose per day, boiled down to one bowl with three bowls of water."
Bai Zhi said to the woman, "You can soak your feet in the dregs of the medicine at night, which will help with blood circulation and improve sleep."
"A total of twelve dollars and eighty cents."
The hospital said this morning that they would need to prepare at least several hundred yuan for the surgery, which is a considerable expense for an ordinary family like theirs.
This Chinese medicine, enough for ten days, only costs a dozen yuan, which is within their budget for now.
"Dr. Ye, how many courses of treatment do I need?" the woman asked.
Ye Rufeng said, "Take three courses of treatment first, then go to the hospital for an ultrasound comparison."
"good."
"Thank you so much, Dr. Ye. I'm so grateful to you."
The couple thanked Ye Rufeng, paid for the medicine, and left.
Dean Liu and Director Li had been sitting nearby and witnessed the entire medical process.
Ye Rufeng diagnosed the patient's illness by taking his pulse yesterday, and the patient underwent an ultrasound today, which confirmed his diagnosis.
It has to be said that this old Chinese medicine doctor is sometimes even more effective than a machine.
After the patient left, Dean Liu said goodbye to Ye Rufeng and Bai Zhi, "Then we won't disturb you any longer."
"Dr. Ye, we will send someone to pick you up the day after tomorrow morning."
Ye Rufeng immediately waved his hand in refusal, "No need to take us, we'll go there ourselves."
Before Dean Liu could say anything more, Bai Zhi interrupted him, "Dean Liu, listen to my grandfather. I know our hospital very well, I'll take him there."
"Okay, then we'll wait at the hospital."
Bai Zhi escorted the two leaders to the door and waved goodbye to them.
When she came in, Ye Rufeng lifted his eyelids and looked at her, "Are you really planning to cooperate with them?"
Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Grandpa, they came here specifically for you."
