Practicing Medical Skills in a Small Clinic-Chapter 108 - 103: The Teacher’s Shock—One, Two, Three Rounds

Chapter 108: Chapter 103: The Teacher’s Shock—One, Two, Three Rounds

Li Jingsheng was filled with excitement; the newly upgraded Bone Touching Skill was still fresh.

Perfect opportunity to experience it on this delivery driver.

However, he didn’t rush. Instead, he steadied himself and first followed Doctor Xu and Dr. Chen to examine the patient’s wrist X-ray.

It was clearly visible that the wrist bone was dislocated, but not particularly serious.

No obvious fracture was detected.

A slight, barely noticeable smile emerged on Doctor Chen’s face; the patient’s wrist joint dislocation wasn’t very severe, and the operation difficulty was moderate. He was hoping to seize this opportunity to practice.

"No fracture, the wrist joint is only mildly dislocated. Doctor Xu, may I assist the patient with Bone Setting?"

Dr. Chen directly requested Doctor Xu in front of the patient.

Only those who are extremely eager would act in such a manner.

Every young doctor eagerly awaits chances to practice.

Only through practice can one grow rapidly.

Observing a hundred surgeries might yield less than performing one stitching yourself.

Dr. Chen’s urgency was fueled by his own calculations.

Doctor Xu obviously favored Li Jingsheng, causing concern that such a prime practice opportunity might be snatched away by him.

He wanted to use this chance to prove his skills were no less than Li Jingsheng’s, and hoped Doctor Xu would also focus on nurturing him.

"Don’t rush! His situation might not be that simple."

After saying that, Doctor Xu looked at Li Jingsheng.

"Xiaoli, check on him."

Dr. Chen, standing aside, was already feeling choked with anger, questioning why this newly arrived intern was prioritized everywhere?

"Doctor Xu, I can also check the patient, and might do a better job."

Saying this in front of the patient, senior doctors, and nurses was somewhat excessive.

Wasn’t he basically telling everyone his skills were superior to Li Jingsheng’s?

"Then you examine the patient first!"

Doctor Xu glanced coldly at Dr. Chen, with a hint of disapproval in his eyes.

The doctor-patient relationship is inherently tense, and medical staff speak carefully in front of patients; Dr. Chen’s defiance of instructions and eagerness to showcase might invite trouble.

If it triggers patient complaints, everyone would be in trouble.

Competition and ambitions are fine, but the methodology matters.

Having seized the chance to examine the patient, Dr. Chen’s face showed a hint of delight.

He immediately proceeded to examine the patient.

"I’ve been practicing medicine for six years and have cured many injuries through manual Bone Setting. Just relax and cooperate with my examination."

He introduced his credentials to the patient.

In the process of introduction, he unabashedly praised himself, which is normal. Any young doctor does this.

Otherwise, patients and their families might doubt you in every way.

To patients, practicing for six years represents an experienced doctor.

In reality, among insiders, he’s just a low-level resident doctor.

Internship for one year, followed by a three-year standardized training, subject to smooth certification, and then post-training becoming a resident doctor.

If the licensing exam fails, not working six even ten years could just leave one as a medical assistant handling odds and ends.

No medical license means not even qualifying as a doctor.

Even if all goes well for Dr. Chen, working six years, he’s only two years into his residency.

Just a low-level resident doctor.

The delivery driver evidently didn’t understand these nuances. Hearing Dr. Chen claim six years of experience, he immediately gained a high level of trust in him.

After a series of inspection operations, Dr. Chen solemnly confirmed, "Consistent with the X-ray examination, no abnormalities detected; manual Bone Setting treatment should be feasible."

Endowed with some doctor-patient communication experience, he didn’t speak too decisively.

"Doctor Xu, do you think now I can..." Eager for achievement, Dr. Chen overlooked Doctor Xu’s earlier cautions.

Doctor Xu clearly stated the patient’s condition wasn’t so simple.

"Your eagerness to help the patient is commendable. Let’s not rush; let Xiaoli also assist with the examination, ensuring there’s no problem before proceeding with Bone Setting. Manual adjustments are most feared when hidden issues are not timely discovered, posing treatment risks."

Doctor Xu advised Dr. Chen earnestly.

Li Jingsheng approached the patient; the Master Level Bone Touching Skill was eagerly waiting to be employed. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Let me check for you again, might be a bit painful. If it becomes unbearable, we can administer an anesthetic. But it’s better to wait until the checkup is complete before anesthetizing because pain provides significant diagnostic aid to us doctors."

"No worries, go ahead and check; I can endure. All I want is to recover quickly and return to work early."

The delivery driver feared neither hardship nor pain, only delays in work.

Missing a day means missing a couple of hundred bucks!

"We will definitely devise the optimal treatment plan for you, rest assured."

While speaking, Li Jingsheng began Bone Touching on the delivery driver.

Dr. Chen’s examination of the patient was purely chaotic, without any method. Doctor Xu evidently hadn’t taught him Bone Touching Skills.

Once Li Jingsheng set his hands, it was immediately different.

His Bone Touching was highly targeted.

Step by step, he continuously probed for the desired information about bone positions, ligaments, bone quality, muscles, and more.

Doctor Xu, standing opposite, watched Li Jingsheng’s Bone Touching, his eyes instantly tightened.

He realized the guy’s progress wasn’t just a bit fast.

During the previous patient’s Bone Touching, he already detected an abnormal rise in bone temperature, ultimately discovering the patient’s joint injury area had developed sterile inflammation.
