Chapter 594 - 469: I Have a Friend, He’s a Bit Kidney-Deficient! (2)
"A mattress that cures cancer? In this day and age, who still believes such nonsense?"
"Not only do some people believe it, but the number who do is beyond your imagination."
"When people get older, they’re easily fooled. We have an old teacher couple here who spent eight thousand yuan on therapy insoles, and no amount of persuasion could stop them. They keep saying we don’t understand..."
"..."
—
Seeing the stiff smile on Su Bingbing’s face.
Even if Chen Mu was slow-witted,
he could still pick up on some clues. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Seems like there really are fools like that. If you’re planning to get medicine, you might want to consult."
"If this prescription wasn’t something I gave you, but you wrote it for yourself, even if something happens, I just need to find a good lawyer, and I wouldn’t bear any legal responsibility."
"Oh, right!"
"Hai City University’s free legal aid is also available to campus doctors for free."
Chen Mu smiled.
His words, however, made the ones in the chat who were getting medicine quite uncomfortable.
They began to flood the chat with insults, calling Chen Mu an unqualified doctor, questioning how Hai City University could choose someone like him as a campus doctor.
Fortunately,
in the live stream,
the normal viewers were still the majority.
Most viewers would come to Chen Mu’s defense against the unreasonable criticisms online.
Chen Mu only briefly responded to the live stream viewers.
Then he turned his attention back to the group of fragile students in front of him.
The online viewers didn’t need Chen Mu’s treatment.
Chen Mu just complained a bit and left it at that.
But looking at this clear yet foolish bunch before him, Chen Mu really had a headache.
He was well aware.
The ones speaking up weren’t necessarily all suffering from kidney deficiency.
It’s just that.
At this age, among the guys, there might be a few admired teachers in their computer hard drives.
They heard an alumnus became kidney deficient from watching too much and started worrying it could happen to themselves.
Chen Mu stroked his chin.
No matter whether this group of people could be considered genuine patients,
many times,
as long as a patient speaks up wanting an examination or to see a doctor,
hospitals and doctors cannot refuse diagnosis without seeing them first.
After all,
amidst those just joining the crowd, there’s always the chance one might actually be sick.
If a doctor refuses diagnosis, then the responsibility becomes the doctor’s.
But,
seeing all those eager eyes, Chen Mu truly felt overwhelmed.
Even though Hai City University’s hospital now receives support from intern doctors of both Hai City University of Traditional Medicine and Hai City Medical University,
it seems like manpower isn’t really lacking anymore.
But actually,
reality isn’t as promising as it appears on the surface.
Even though there seem to be more hands at the university hospital, the fragile students have also realized.
Since they learned that Hai City has many intern doctors now,
and treatments at the university hospital are all free,
the fragile students have eagerly flocked to the university hospital.
Even something as small as a sneeze makes them wonder if they’re sick and if they can conveniently get a sick leave note.
Because of this mentality of the fragile students,
the university hospital has now been burdened with an unmerited patient load.
Chen Mu looked around, seeing at least a hundred fragile students claiming to treat their kidney deficiency.
And that was just in this one dorm building, the ones staying here at the moment.
The speed at which fragile students spread information far exceeds normal imagination.
By the time they return to the university hospital’s entrance, perhaps the line of fragile students awaiting their kidney deficiency assessment has already grown long.
Though Chen Mu had a headache,
facing a group of potential patients, he just couldn’t refuse diagnosis.
With a sigh, he said, "Come a bit later. Once the intern doctors from Hai City University of Traditional Medicine arrive, you can line up outside their consultation rooms."
In the crowd,
one fragile student couldn’t resist questioning, "But Dr. Chen, can we really trust intern doctors?"
"Won’t they fail to diagnose correctly!"
—
"Okay, okay! You’re just joining the crowd and yet you doubt the intern doctors’ capabilities."
"After watching this show, I’ve realized intern doctors are really misunderstood. Most patients don’t trust them at all."
"But the thing is, experienced doctors were all intern doctors at some point. Without patients during their internship, how can they improve?"
"Sure, but when you go to the hospital, do you book an intern doctor or an expert?"
"An expert..."
"Exactly! When talking about others, people can make everything sound nice, but when it’s about themselves, it’s completely different, tch!"
"..."
—
Chen Mu helplessly said, "If there’s any illness the intern doctors can’t treat, they’ll either refer it directly to me or suggest you visit a top-tier hospital."
Seeing the doubtful look on the faces of the fragile students in front of him,
Chen Mu, a bit upset,
pointed to the campus ambulance behind him and the patient who just regained consciousness on it, "Of course, if you can reach that level of severity, you can skip the line."
The fragile students, hoping Chen Mu would personally attend to them: "..."
Who would dare!
That’s an ambulance!
The fragile students exchanged looks, each changing their tune one after another.
"Actually, I think this is just fine!"
"I agree, this approach is quite good. We’re not even sure if we’re sick, the intern doctors are capable enough for us!"
"I do trust the skills of the intern doctors from Hai City University of Traditional Medicine. If I may ask, Dr. Chen, is it easy to get an appointment with Dr. Mu?"
"Ha! You’re quite sly, knowing Dr. Mu’s skills are top-notch among those doctors. If you can’t join Dr. Chen’s line, you’ll join Dr. Mu’s instead."
"..."
The ambulance arrived fairly quickly.
It took away one fragile student.
The other one who had fallen asleep decided to take a nap first,
planning to get his medicine after he wakes up.
Zheng Xin impatiently informed Chen Mu, then hurriedly left.
Watching Zheng Xin’s retreating figure as if fleeing from disaster, Chen Mu, hands in pockets, walked back to the university hospital with the other intern doctors.
On the way,
Chen Mu couldn’t help but ask the intern doctors beside him, "Were there still many patients at the university hospital last night?"
Upon hearing this,
the intern doctors shook their heads, "No, there were only about a dozen patients last night."
Chen Mu looked at the large group of intern doctors in front of him, frowning, "That’s not much..."
With such a small patient flow,
what was with Zheng Xin’s demeanor?
Seeing Chen Mu’s puzzled look, one intern doctor, with even some bloodstains on his white coat, slapped his forehead, "Oh, but something quite outrageous happened last night, maybe Dr. Zheng was just a bit shaken!"
"What kind of shock?"
Chen Mu didn’t understand.
Could there be something at Hai City University more shocking than the principal landing in the ICU?
The intern doctor spoke, looking at Chen Mu with some sympathy, "Last night, we delivered a baby for a female student in Apartment 7."
Chen Mu: "Huh?"
Intern doctor: "The girl had her water break and didn’t even know she was pregnant. She just said her stomach hurt, and by the time we got to the dorm, the baby’s head was visible!"
"But according to the girl herself, before giving birth, she thought it was a stomach ache."
"She took all kinds of stomach medicine and painkillers; the baby has already been sent to the hospital for checks, and the girl experienced postpartum hemorrhage, almost, last night we almost lost her."
"Because it was in the girls’ dormitory, initially no male doctors went up."
Chen Mu: "..."
Only after realizing a birth was imminent, did they call Zheng Xin up.
As it turns out,
Zheng Xin went up only to be met with a hemorrhaging mother???
Chen Mu was baffled, "A ten-month belly isn’t small, the patient herself had no clue at all?"
