Chapter 1308: Chapter 1307
Translator: 549690339At five o’clock in the morning, Osbourne stopped his Jaguar and walked for a while with his shoulders hunched. Only then did he relax a little.
His secretary had seen the car from upstairs, so she rushed down to pick him up. She said helplessly and complained, “It’s dark. Shouldn’t you be collecting mail at this time?”
“I would collect mail at five in the morning because I want my doctors to see my mail during breakfast. It would be best if they could think about it on the way to work. “Ling ran is not my doctor yet… is he here yet?”Osbourne adjusted the hat on his head. The hat was given to him by his second wife, but he did not tell his current wife about it. Therefore, he still had the most expensive outfit. Osbourne only wore it on occasions that were important to him.
It was like a symbol. Those who knew him well would know that Osbourne valued the occasion when they saw the hat.
To put it in a more idiosyncratic way: he was serious!
!!A serious bald man… a serious man would always look better in a hat. The secretary knew that Osbourne usually wouldn’t wear a hat when he saw a doctor, unless he was going to fire this guy, or hire this guy.
However, even though the Cleveland Clinic had become rather flat, the director of the Heart Center would not interfere with the appointment of every doctor..
“Doctor Ling is already in the operating room.”The secretary first answered Osbourne’s question, then, he said, “Are you trying to recruit him? I’ve tried with their team, and Doctor Ling doesn’t seem to have any intention of working across the Pacific Ocean.”
“People’s thoughts change.”Osbourne used his finger to put on his hat and walked forward confidently.
The secretary followed closely behind him and shook his head.
However, the director Osbourne whom he was familiar with was a leader who often made mistakes in personnel matters. It was not too strange for him to have any strange thoughts.
Anyway, if Osbourne wanted to recruit Ling ran, he could do so. Although the secretary did not think highly of him, she did not care too much about it. She just secretly sent a message to the twenty-one people who were concerned about this matter before she got into the elevator.
“The Operating Theater is at 5:11 pm.”
Osbourne sat in the waiting room with transparent floor-to-ceiling glass. He crossed his legs and picked up his coffee. He suddenly felt a little emotional.
Similar to his peers, the hardest time that Osbourne worked was when he was in his thirties. Before he became an attending physician, he had to make ward rounds before the attending physician came to the hospital, solve problems, deal with emergency cases, and so on.
This period had passed. Although he had to get up early for surgery, it was considered a special event. As a chief physician, his body could not take it anymore, so he had less time to come to the operating theater.
Osbourne caressed the green willows in the waiting room. He felt that the leaves were soft and light to the touch. He did not feel that his breathing had relaxed. It was as if he was going to fall asleep in the next moment.
“Sir,”the secretary called out in a low voice.
Osbourne was suddenly jolted awake. “I didn’t fall asleep.”
Then, his hand subconsciously moved to touch the bottom.
“Doctor Ling is coming out,”the secretary quickly reminded him.
Osbourne also completely woke up. He pulled his hand out with a shake and smiled self-deprecatingly. ‘I didn’t even take my medicine. What am I touching for?’.
Then, he adjusted his collar and casually touched a handful of green radishes. After he recovered, he saw Ling ran walk out of the operating theater that had turned red and green.
“The surgery went very smoothly…”Felix followed Ling ran out. His skin looked a little dry and tired, but his expression was so excited that he looked like a middle school student who had just watched a pornographic film. He had to recall the scene in the operating theater, only then could he pretend to be serious and explain the situation to his family.
Ling ran just stood quietly by the side, just like when he was in Yun Hua Hospital.
According to the rules, when Ling ran performed the surgery, there had to be an attending physician present. This was also one of the reasons why many interns tried their best to fight for a chance. This was because the time that attending physicians had was limited. They could accompany the interns for a few rounds, when they could do so, and the quality of their accompanying depended on their mood.
However, in Ling ran’s case, accompanying the interns was something that needed to be fought for. Even though Felix came up with the “First come, first served”theory, he only managed to snatch the time in the early morning.
Very soon, the family members were led away.
Osbourne immediately went forward and greeted ling ran, “Doctor Ling, how do you feel about performing surgery today?”
“Department Director?”Felix looked at Osbourne in surprise, and his tone rose.
Osbourne waved his hand as if he was picking up leftovers, then, he started to chat with Ling ran. “Based on my experience, the Cleveland Clinic’s triage service is much better than the hospitals in China. Most of our patients are sent here because the local hospitals are unable to treat them. “This kind of surgery should be more interesting.”
“That’s true.”Ling ran nodded and recalled, he said, “Today’s first surgery is for the second heart bypass. The second surgery is for patients who have undergone kidney transplantation before. The third surgery is for elderly patients who have a large number of basic diseases…”
“You’ve already performed three surgeries?”
“Yes.”Ling ran replied to Osbourne dryly. It was the last bit of courtesy he had for his boring questions.
Osbourne laughed loudly, he quickly asked, “Are you comfortable with the equipment? If you feel that it’s inconvenient, our clinic can provide a sum of money for the purchase of self-used equipment. It’s about twenty thousand… to fifty thousand dollars.”
Felix was extremely surprised. “We have this policy?”
“We do now.”Osbourne glanced at Felix coldly.
Felix took a step back with a face full of shock. He whispered to the secretary beside him, “It wasn’t like this in the past…”
No one paid attention to him at the scene.
Ling ran still rejected Osbourne without much care. He had received too many offers of gifts, and he knew how to reject them. The most direct way was the best way.
Ling ran could not be more familiar with it.
Osbourne was not discouraged. He smiled and said, “Actually, other than the surgical instruments and operating theaters, our support for doctors also lies in the training of scholarly doctors.”
Ling ran was expressionless.
Osbourne maintained his smile. “I can provide the best laboratory and experimental conditions in the United States without any requirements. “Of course, if there are additional requirements, you can submit more applications… if necessary, we have an integrated path to train scholarly doctors. If you participate in it, you will definitely get an excellent experience…”
“I’m ready to go back.”Ling ran raised his head and gave Osbourne a heavy blow.
Osbourne was slightly stunned. “Go back… But… the mirror images haven’t been completed yet.”
“I’ll leave after I’m done.”Ling ran’s answer was also very clear. Most of the surgeries he performed in Cleveland were free, and it was normal for him to use a few mirror images.
Osbourne understood Ling ran’s determination. He could not help but sigh heavily. “At least, let us learn from you for a little longer…”
“Felix and Karen have followed me to do a lot of surgeries. It should be enough for us to do a little more practice in the area of heart bypass surgery.”Ling ran answered very honestly.
Felix was originally an attending physician at the Cleveland Heart Center. It was obvious that he did not follow Ling ran for nothing.
After Osbourne received Ling ran’s reminder, and more importantly, after he confirmed Ling ran’s intention to return to the country, Osbourne looked at Felix again and suddenly felt that this guy was also somewhat handsome.
