Chapter 641 - 294: Any Later and It Could Be Fatal, "Birthmark"_2
This matter needs to be settled in one go to avoid Xiaogao feeling uncomfortable.
As long as Xiaogao isn’t foolish, he must know that the boss is being cautious with him.
In the face of major interests of the clinic, Li Jingsheng can’t fully consider Xiaogao’s personal feelings. Even in the future, including Tang Ping, they can only make way for the clinic’s interests.
It’s not being heartless, rather, only by doing this can Sunshine Clinic ensure healthy and sustainable development.
And there’s no need to worry about when a staff departure would cause the clinic to be severely damaged, or even collapsed directly.
Returning to the clinic, he threw himself into the intense work of medical diagnosis and treatment.
More and more people came to see him for illnesses.
Previously, those patients were quite picky, not willing to let Wang Zongxiao treat them.
Now, Han Siyu allocates consultation numbers based on the patient’s condition.
The biggest advantage of this method is ensuring every doctor has plenty of work to do.
Otherwise, Wang Zongxiao would spend a significant amount of time sitting idly or simply go help Xiaogao sell health products.
Doctors aren’t necessarily suitable for sales.
Wang Zongxiao and Shao Bing are only suitable to be doctors. On the other hand, Han Siyu and Tang Ping, besides doing their primary jobs, can also handle some sales.
Apart from being young and pretty, they have good speaking skills and adaptability.
In this regard, Meng Luo appears relatively weaker.
She tends more towards being a technical talent.
"Dr. Li, could you take a look at my wife? She’s been receiving IV treatment at Quick Recovery Clinic for two days, but her condition hasn’t improved at all."
A man in his forties supported his wife, whose face was flushed, to sit at the consultation desk.
They must have come early to queue.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be the first.
"Siying, please take her temperature and measure her blood pressure and heart rate."
After Han Siying measured the patient’s vital signs, Li Jingsheng began inquiring about her condition.
The female patient seemed to be in her mid-thirties, with slightly messy hair and some strands stuck to her forehead, indicating she was sweating.
"Oh my, her temperature is so high, it’s already 39 degrees."
After measuring, Han Siying surprisedly reminded Li Jingsheng.
"First, tell me where you initially felt uncomfortable."
Li Jingsheng was already observing the patient.
"A couple of days ago, I suddenly felt a bit off. Initially felt cold, then started to have a fever. I don’t feel like eating, feel nauseous, and have no energy," the woman described her symptoms weakly.
"Went to Quick Recovery Clinic to see a doctor, was told I had a bad cold and was given IV treatment. They said considering my severe condition, I should opt for better medication, and each shot costs over four hundred. But after yesterday’s entire day of injections, there was no improvement. We heard your clinic has superior medical skills, so we came over."
Charging over four hundred per IV treatment.
Boss Zhao truly deserves the title of a black-hearted doctor, he’s certainly not ambiguous in earning money from patients.
Crucially, he hasn’t even cured the patients.
While Han Siyu measured the woman’s heart rate, Li Jingsheng noticed a patch of rash on the patient’s chest.
"Also, my knees are notably painful today, feels like my whole body is sore. Could this be related to the fever?"
The female patient provided another symptom detail.
"Let me take a look at your knees."
After hearing, Li Jingsheng started suspecting it’s not a cold.
The woman’s husband was quite attentive, squatting down and gently pulling up his wife’s pants.
The woman’s legs were quite pale.
Li Jingsheng touched her knees, feeling a temperature higher than normal, and noticed swelling.
"Does it hurt?"
He applied slightly more pressure.
"It hurts!"
She nodded with a painful expression.
He checked her other knee, which also showed swelling, heat, and aching symptoms.
"Let me take a look at your elbow!"
As her sleeve was rolled up, Li Jingsheng found that her upper arm also had a rash.
In some women, a rash on the chest isn’t a big issue.
Because the skin on the chest is softer, with rich vascular networks, excessive intake of spicy food, or endocrine imbalances might cause rashes, which typically resolve over time.
"Did the rash on your elbow appear recently or has it been there since before?"
"I think it showed up in the past few days. My skin was always smooth before, without these rashes."
She responded.
Li Jingsheng touched her elbow, she said there were painful symptoms there too.
"Dr. Li, is my wife’s cold very severe? Can you treat it here?"
The man was several years older than his wife and fulfilled his role as a caregiver when she was sick.
He was very protective of his wife.
Moreover, his wife’s attire was quite well-off, wearing gold bracelets, watches, platinum necklaces, and diamond rings.
While he himself wore a cheap gray round-neck T-shirt that already had small holes.
"She likely doesn’t have a cold."
Li Jingsheng’s expression was serious.
"Ah... What kind of illness does my wife have then? No wonder the injections at Quick Recovery Clinic didn’t help!"
The woman’s husband became anxious.
"Don’t rush, we need further tests and diagnosis to determine the specific illness. It’s possible that my small clinic can’t diagnose it, and you’d have to go to a bigger hospital. I noticed she was wheezing from the moment she sat down, indicating a respiratory tract issue, but upper respiratory infections don’t cause knee swelling or rashes, which is rare. I feel her condition is more complex than expected and is rapidly progressing.
If you can think of any useful clues about the onset, feel free to tell me.
