Chapter 827: Pre-operation
Ling Ran patiently answered questions from several police dog owners .
For doctors, every surgery varied, but for patients, no matter how small the surgery was, the nervousness remained .
Ling Ran was used to explaining the procedure to them in detail .
Some doctors did not like it, partly because they could not explain it clearly . In most cases, they did not have enough time to do so .
For a doctor who consulted thirty to forty patients in the morning, the average time they could spend on each patient was only a few minutes . Naturally, they did not have enough time to go into detail . Even if the doctor could explain it clearly, the patient and their family members may not be able to understand it .
Most of the high-ranking doctors were always praised by the patients and their families, but that was mainly because they had enough time to do the explaining .
This was because the more advanced a doctor was, the fewer patients they had to deal with in person .
Most illnesses and patients could be handed over to junior doctors for treatment . High-ranking doctors only cared about the patients and illnesses that they wanted to care about . So, the time spent on each patient would naturally be extended .
In fact, Ling Ran had just recently found himself in this position, or rather, he had escaped from the plight of a junior doctor .
Ever since he started providing consultations, he did not have to perform unappreciated tasks and obey the hospital’s medical production line anymore .
Ordinary assistant lecturers did not have any choice in terms of choosing how many patients they wanted to consult . The people from departments or treatment groups sent them out for consultations to bring back the patients, just like how hunting dogs were sent out to bring back game . Taking the initiative to reduce the number of surgeries by themselves would definitely not be approved .
Even if a doctor held a senior position, he could not choose to reduce the number of consultations—not unless he was a medical director . Even department directors could not always reduce the number of consultations .
A treatment group or department was an organic organization . The leaders over there could not afford to not bring patients back just because they wanted to have a good time . How would the junior doctors be able to improve their surgery skills if they did not work?
Besides, the number of patients was directly related to the doctors’ bonuses . Pharmaceutical sales representatives would not even bother with doctors who performed few surgeries . Only doctors with strong mental fortitudes could insist on reducing the number of consultations and patients .
Or if they had Ling Ran’s skill and status . The better skills they had and the broader range of skills they had, the more sources of patients they would have . A higher status also meant that they could decide their patients’ whereabouts and so on .
The houseman next to him waited patiently . When Ling Ran was done consulting all the patients and figured out all their problems, he immediately handed out the forms and said, “This is the hospitalization form . You can take it to the inpatient area in the center . ”
“Okay . ” After Corgi Man went for his consultation and listened to Ling Ran’s explanation, he gradually changed his mind .
Now, he wanted to have surgery .
He can be considered to have hit the jackpot to be able to receive surgery from such an awesome doctor like Ling Ran .
After Corgi Man got the hospitalization form, he looked down at it and smiled with satisfaction .
When everything was settled, they sat on their beds in the ward, and Corgi Man as well as the others were relieved .
The vice-captain looked like he was abducted . He sighed heavily, exhaled one more time, looked at the ward, and said, “It’s very convenient to put all of us into one room . At least that means we can take care of each other . ”
This was a three-bed room, when another two beds were added here, the hospital can fit five people inside .
Ling Ran had been back for some time . The rooms were now fully occupied, and they had almost reached full capacity for the extra beds . Having five people stay in a three-bed room was already considered basic operations for the hospital at present .
“Vice-captain, please help us find a larger room later . It would be better if it’s a single room or something similar to that . ” Corgi Man laughed .
The vice-captain snorted . “Yeah right, I don’t even know anyone here . Help you to find a bigger room? Is it so troubling for you to stay with me?”
“What? No! We see each other in the team every day . I’m sure you’re tired of having me around already . ” Corgi Man began to act obediently and cutely for his own benefits .
Once again, the vice-captain let out a hum before he took out his phone and said, “Let me ask them . They seem to be really short on rooms . ”
Several other team members nodded obediently and did not hurry in unpacking their things . They took out their phones to contact their families .
They thought they could go back after their consultation . They did not think that they would need to be hospitalized .

Captain Chu walked into the door, like a human trafficker . There was a proud smile on his face . “You’re settled down? Have your surgeries been scheduled?”
“Captain,” Corgi Man greeted him .
The vice-captain said angrily, “Our surgeries are scheduled in the afternoon . Old Chu, you did not even discuss this with me before you sent me here before I can prepare myself . You’re making me do things way beyond my ability . What’s the difference between this driving me to do something drastic?”
“Would you have come if I discussed this with you? How long can you last with your legs in this condition?” Captain Chu waved his hand and said, “After I did the surgery, I found out that it is meaningless to delay this issue . Now that we found this doctor after so much hardship, it would be a waste if we did not grab this opportunity . ”
“You should have let the others do it first . There are so many things to do in the team . You can’t be on duty right now, and I’m hospitalized, the team might be in chaos now . ” The vice-captain shook his head vigorously .
Captain Chu stared at him for a while and said, “Didn’t you take leave for a week before Chinese New Year? When you came back, did you find any changes in the team?”
The vice-captain was stunned .
“You play with your dog all day long . Even when you stay in the hospital, things will be the same . Don’t worry . ” Captain Chu paused for a moment, he then said slowly, “I will be back in the team in a few days . It’s just about ten dogs . Having us absent for just a few days is perfectly fine . ”
The vice-captain licked his lips and felt resigned .
A few other members looked at each other before they quickly heaped praises, compliments, and wishes on the captain .
“It’s good that you’ve recovered, captain . ”
“I hope that you’ll be healthy and realize your ambitions . ”
“Captain, don’t forget to send some food to my family . ”

The door to the room was pushed open again .
“Come, it’s time to prepare for the surgery . ” A nurse came in with steel plates and occupied the door as if to prevent people from escaping .
“Now? So soon? Didn’t the doctor say that the surgery will be in the afternoon?” A few people in the room who were talking and laughing gradually lost their smiles .
“We have to start to get ready for the surgery in the afternoon . There are a lot of things for us to check . ”
“A… lot?”
“Routine blood tests, liver function, blood biochemical tests, infectious diseases test, blood clotting function, and routine urine and fecal tests…” the nurse said while drawing their blood . She left a plastic container behind and said, “After you poop, get some into it . A little will do . Close the lid properly . ”
The five people looked at each other and suddenly felt embarrassed that they were staying together .
“Are your families informed? They need to sign some forms,” the nurse urged them again .
“Yes,” the captain replied in their place .
“Any smokers? You should not smoke before surgery . ”
Several people giggled and did not utter a word .
The nurse looked at them and chuckled . “And…”
“Please, go on . ”
“Have you all done surgeries before?”
Some shook their heads .
Corgi Man was a little bit embarrassed . “I did circumcision . ”
The nurse nodded . “Well, then, I’ll teach you how to do your business on the bed, which is good for your postoperative recovery…”
The men had shocked expressions plastered on their faces .
