This miracle doctor just wants to be fired!

Office of the Director of the Emergency Department.

Li Jianming received a call from Zhou Cheng and, upon hearing the reason for the incident, became furious.

"Zhou Cheng, do you even know how to communicate with patients?"

"No, let the patient go to the observation room or the cardiology department for treatment first!"

"The condition may be urgent, but we need to proceed slowly and make it easier for the patient and their family to accept!"

"Your subjective judgment, your desire to dominate the medical relationship, and your oppressive communication style—which patient would feel comfortable with that?"

Hearing Li Jianming speak in an official tone, Zhou Cheng calmly said, "Director, given the patient's current condition, he is not suitable to be moved to the observation room or a regular ward."

"Then let the patient transition a bit!" Li Jianming's voice grew louder and louder. "In the entire emergency department, no one is as insistent on following a set of rules when it comes to handling affairs and treating patients!"

"If someone else just has a minor cold, would you worry about viral myocarditis?"

"If someone else just has gastroenteritis, would you worry about aortic dissection?"

"If someone else only has a headache and fever, would you worry about a brain hemorrhage?"

"If every little problem is blown out of proportion like this, wouldn't hospitals be overflowing?"

If it were anyone else, they might have been fooled by Li Jianming's words.

But Zhou Cheng was different; he approached the situation with a critical eye and a rebellious spirit.

As long as he doesn't violate medical ethics or deliberately provoke his superiors, he can do anything without any problem.

After a while, Li Jianming finally heard Zhou Cheng's voice slowly coming through the microphone.

"Director, do you mean that the aortic dissection that Zhao Rui missed last week was to be expected?"

Upon hearing this, Li Jianming was furious!

The veins on his forehead were clearly visible!

Zhou Cheng really hit Li Jianming where it hurt. How could he dare to do that?

Seeing that Li Jianming didn't reply, Zhou Cheng continued with a slight smile, "Director, going back to this patient, if he really did have a heart attack, and then suddenly developed ventricular fibrillation while in the observation room or on his way to the cardiology outpatient clinic, what do you think his chances of survival are?"

"You're an expert in the emergency department, I'm sure you should know better than I do!"

After saying these words, Zhou Cheng hung up the phone before Li Jianming could react.

He is now arguing his case rationally and speaking the truth, with no intention of deliberately provoking his superiors.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Li Jianming slammed it down.

He felt that Zhou Cheng had simply gone too far!

How dare you talk to him like that!

Yesterday, at the hospital leadership meeting, the president specifically mentioned Zhou Cheng.

Li Jianming had originally planned to ease tensions with Zhou Cheng, but he never expected this to happen today!

……

Medical Affairs Office.

Deputy Director Li Qiang also learned of the situation and even personally called Zhou Cheng.

"Hey, Xiao Zhou, sometimes you should take a step back and focus on building a good relationship with your patients before you go to see them!"

"Look, didn't you insist on making a brain CT scan on a patient last time who was feeling dizzy? In the end, the patient didn't have it done, and nothing happened, right?"

"You're working in the outpatient clinic, so you can't just do the right thing all the time. You absolutely mustn't create conflicts with patients."

"If the patient becomes agitated, you must protect yourself first! You know that, right?"

Zhou Cheng felt rather helpless upon hearing this.

However, he could tell the difference between Li Qiang's and Li Jianming's way of speaking.

Li Qiang's words were spoken from their perspective and with their best interests at heart.

Li Jianming started cursing as soon as he spoke.

"Thank you for your concern, Director Li," Zhou Cheng said. "However, I still stand by my point of view."

"Alright, alright." Li Qiang shook his head. "I really can't do anything with you guys. I'll have the relevant department investigate this patient. You're in the emergency room, so remember what I just said."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He could say whatever he wanted to Director Li Jianming, even without thinking, because he had no expectations of Li Jianming and instead wanted to provoke him.

However, he felt a little soft-hearted when facing Li Qiang, the deputy director of the medical department, and didn't want to directly embarrass Li Qiang.

……

About half an hour later.

The man who brought his wife to see him for abdominal pain has returned.

He stood at the entrance of the emergency room, holding the CT scan report in his hand, his face looking even worse than before.

He stormed into the consultation room, threw the report on the table, and didn't say a word.

Chen Xi picked up the report directly.

The CT report clearly stated the diagnosis: "Small bowel obstruction, ascites, further examination recommended."

Chen Xi immediately handed the report to Zhou Cheng, saying, "Senior brother, it is indeed an intestinal obstruction, just as you diagnosed it before!"

Zhou Cheng's face remained expressionless as he looked up at the patient and their family: "The patient needs to be hospitalized for gastrointestinal decompression and fluid replacement. If necessary, another surgery may be required to release the adhesions."

The man stared at the diagnosis on the report, opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

His previous arrogance vanished completely, and he even showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.

The patient sighed and said to Zhou Cheng, "Doctor, thank you. Luckily you insisted that we do the tests, otherwise it would have been a real problem if it had been delayed."

Zhou Cheng shook his head: "It's what I should do. Now contact the hospital immediately, I'll get you a hospital admission certificate, and we'll complete the procedures as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Dr. Zhou."

No matter how sour the man's face was, Zhou Cheng still gave the patient an emergency room admission slip and instructed the emergency room nurses to escort the patient to the inpatient department.

After the patient and their family left, Chen Xi and Li Yang looked at Zhou Cheng with stars in their eyes.

They were all filled with admiration!

Senior Brother Zhou Cheng is simply the most amazing emergency room doctor in their eyes!

Not only was his diagnostic approach incredibly accurate, but his personality was also incredibly cool, unlike other doctors who simply "coax" patients into getting treatment.

However, what Chen Xi and Li Yang didn't know was that their perfect senior brother Zhou Cheng was currently in a bit of a mess. Why hadn't anyone come to complain or report him all morning?

Something's not right!

What about the patient with the dry cough?

What happened to the patient with Wellens syndrome from earlier?

Zhou Cheng felt that his attitude towards medical treatment had become much colder than before, and he had even completely abandoned "appeasement-style medical care," doing everything his own way.

But why haven't I received the complaint yet?
