Chapter 728 - Fang Qiu Saw Patients Overnight in an Outrageous Manner!



Chapter 728 Fang Qiu Saw Patients Overnight in an Outrageous Manner!

The registration hall on the first floor of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine Hospital:

After only half an hour, the three registration staff members all stopped.

Although Fang Qiu had said that every patient was welcome, only 100 patients could register each day, which was the maximum they could do on the computer system. Once the number of registered people exceeded 100, a notification would pop up on the computer screen, asking whether to continue to register.

Even the computer knew that doctors in one consulting room could only see 100 patients a day at most, not to mention human beings.

What was more, it was only feasible when a physician worked with an expert.

Nevertheless, Fang Qiu did this alone!

That was why the three staff members at the registration office stopped when they saw the notice. They were at a loss as to what to do.

It didn’t take long for 100 patients to get registered.

They all registered with Fang Qiu.

The staff looked out of the window and saw a sea of people.

Obviously, they were all here for Fang Qiu.

“If more patients are allowed to register, can Fang Qiu finish seeing them in one day?

“Should we continue to allow patients to register or not?

“After all, according to the hospital’s regulations, he has to finish seeing all the patients who have registered before getting off work today.”

“Wait a minute, everyone.”

The staff at the registration office didn’t dare to explain it openly, so they could only tell the patients to wait, and then quickly called their leader.

The associate director, who was in charge of internal affairs, received a call from the registration office.

“The number of registered people has exceeded 100?”

In less than half an hour, 100 patients had registered. When he heard the news, the associate director was also shocked.

Though shocked, he found it to be a tricky problem.

“Should patients be allowed to continue to register?” he thought.

“Wait for my call.”

The associate director hung up the phone and immediately called the head nurse of the internal medicine department on the third floor to ask Fang Qiu his opinion.

Fang Qiu was seeing a patient over there.

“Knock, knock, knock…”

The head nurse knocked on the door and walked into the consulting room. Seeing that Fang Qiu was treating a patient, she didn’t dare to make a sound and could only stand aside quietly.

A while later, Fang Qiu finished his treatment and sent the patient away. He then asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Here’s the thing, Doctor Fang.”

The head nurse looked at Fang Qiu and said, “I just received a call from the associate director, who said the staff on the first floor reported that you’ve already had 100 medical appointments. The staff at the registration office doesn’t know if they should continue registering patients, so he sent me to ask for your advice.”

“Tell them to continue their work!”

Fang Qiu said without hesitation, “No matter how many patients there are, I welcome all of them.”

“Okay.”

The head nurse nodded in surprise and left in a hurry. She didn’t dare to stay for another second, for fear of disturbing Fang Qiu while seeing patients.

Soon, the staff at the registration office received a call.

After hearing Fang Qiu’s exact words, the staff members were stunned for a moment. They then sat down, shocked but with wry smiles, and continued to help patients register.

Fang Qiu didn’t stop seeing patients on the third floor for even a second.

He saw patients from morning till noon nonstop during the whole process. All he did was drink some water when a new patient entered the consulting room.

When afternoon arrived, he just took some time to eat a little chocolate and bread to replenish the calories his body needed.

After that, he continued to see patients.

The other doctors in the hospital, however, had the experience of sitting in their offices all day like white-collar workers.

From morning till night, they had no patients at all.

Were they busy?

Not really.

Several of the young doctors were so idle that they almost made plans to play online games.

It was a new experience for all the doctors in the Chinese Medicine Hospital.

In some departments, people were as busy as bees, while in others, they were as free as if on holiday.

“Alas, why is Fang Qiu so popular?”

“It’s beyond our reach. He’s so skilled that he can cure any disease.”

“I just read on the Internet that Fang Qiu treated a diabetic.”

“Diabetes is nothing serious for him. He’s even cured quite a lot of terminal diseases.”

“It’s so amazing. This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone treat patients so easily. No matter what ails the patient, he’ll be all right after he leaves Fang Qiu’s consulting room.”

“I’m feeling a rush of…”

“Anger, or Qi in Chinese Medicine?”

“Of course I’m talking about Qi in Chinese Medicine. I’m more than happy to see that Fang Qiu is so capable. It shows that people are paying more and more attention to Chinese Medicine.”

“That being said, Fang Qiu has great personal charisma. As soon as he came to our hospital, all the patients went to seek medical services from him and all the other doctors had nothing to do.”

In the hospital, the physicians of other departments were discussing it with each other with bitter smiles on their faces.

Time flew by quickly.

It was 5:30 p.m. in the blink of an eye, and it was time to get off work.

The physicians of the various departments collated documents and got off work one after another. To their surprise, when they went downstairs, they saw that there were still patients waiting in a long line for registration on the first floor.

All the physicians in the various departments were stunned by this scene.

They went to the hall on the first floor.

Seeing a nurse who was maintaining order, a doctor who had just finished work immediately ran up and asked, “It’s time to get off work. Why are there so many people waiting in line to get registered? Isn’t Fang Qiu done working?”

“I don’t know either.”

The young nurse frowned and said, “I heard that Doctor Fang is apparently not going to stop working. He’ll stay up all night to see patients.”

With her words, the doctors were all dumbfounded.

“Damn it, he’s crazy!”

“Fang Qiu must be out of his mind, right?”

“Staying up all night? This is the first time I’ve ever heard of someone working all night in a hospital.”

“It’s common to work overtime. Nonetheless, it’s rare to work overnight.”

“It’s merely the first day. I don’t believe he can continue to see patients tomorrow after staying up all night.”

In the internal medicine consulting room on the third floor:

Fang Qiu really didn’t stop working and was still seeing patients.

Even when it was time to leave work, the number of patients lining up outside his consulting room didn’t decrease at all, but instead, it was growing.

Fang Qiu went on seeing patients one after another like this until the lights were out in most of the rooms of the hospital. But his lights were still on.

Even the nurses had had five shifts from early morning to the dark of night, but Fang Qiu was still seeing patients.

It was 10:00 p.m.

While netizens were involved in a heated debate about the huge crowd in the Chinese Medicine Hospital from earlier that day, someone suddenly posted on Weibo that Fang Qiu was still seeing patients, that there were still people waiting in line in the Chinese Medicine Hospital, and that even the registration staff were working overtime all night.

The moment the news broke, the netizens were all struck dumb with amazement.

“It’s 10 o’clock in the evening. It’s 10 o’clock!”

“Is Fang Qiu still seeing patients? Oh, my goodness, can’t these patients allow him to get off work?”

“It’s not surprising. Although Fang Qiu has signed a contract with Jiangjing Chinese Medicine Hospital, he sees patients only one day a month. This is the first time he’ll work three days in a row. Therefore, everyone must seize this opportunity. Otherwise, they can only register with him once a month in the future, and it’s hard to say whether they can get registered or not.”

“If my memory serves me right, Fang Qiu saw a total of 1,050 patients on three consecutive days in the second-to-last episode of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor.”

“Master Fang Qiu is so dedicated. He’s genuinely a good doctor!”

“Yes, few doctors nowadays are so dedicated and care so much about their patients.”

“This kid has been seeing patients for an entire day. Why hasn’t he taken a rest yet?”

In the hospital, Director Zhang Qishun was standing by the window of the director’s office. As he caught sight of the third-floor internal medicine consulting room opposite him, where the lights were still blazing, he instantly frowned and muttered, “It looks like he’s going to go on seeing patients like this.”

With this in mind, Zhang Qishun immediately walked out of the office and went all the way to the internal medicine consulting room.

“Director.”

When a nurse who was taking care of a patient saw Zhang Qishun, she quickly stood up and called out.

“Come here.”

Zhang Qishun waved to the nurse.

“Director, what’s the matter?” asked the nurse.

“Fang Qiu hasn’t eaten anything all day. Go and ask him if he wants to take a rest and eat something. It’s important to see patients, but his health matters more,” said Zhang Qishun.

“Okay, I’ll do it now.”

The nurse nodded immediately.

In fact, she had been long wanting to do this.

Nevertheless, when she saw that Fang Qiu had been busy working, she couldn’t bear to disturb him. She could only occasionally refill his cup with hot water, leave him some chocolate, and so on.

It just so happened that Fang Qiu had just finished seeing a patient when the nurse entered the consulting room. He was about to call out for the next patient when the nurse came in.

“Doctor Fang.”

Before Fang Qiu could speak, the nurse said, “The director just showed up. He said that you’ve been seeing patients all day and he wants you to take a rest and eat something. He said it’s important to see patients, but your health matters more.”

“No need.”

Fang Qiu shook his head at once and said with a smile, “I can still hold up.”

“But you haven’t eaten all day.”

The nurse tried to persuade him again.

“I’m fine.”

Fang Qiu smiled and said to the nurse, “I could rest, but if I did, my patients would be waiting for me. Once I rest, it’ll be a waste of the patients’ time, so I can’t.

“Go ahead. Help me call in the next patient.”

After hearing him, the nurse could no longer persuade him. When she turned around and walked out of the consulting room, her eyes were red.

She had never seen a doctor do that for his patients.

That was the doctor, the one who saved lives.

It was at this moment that she truly realized what medical ethics were!

She walked out of the room and called out the next patient’s name.

The patient entered the consulting room, and Fang Qiu continued his work.

Many patients were still waiting outside.

All the waiting areas on the third floor were crowded. Some of those who brought their luggage even made a bed on the floor and slept there while they waited to be called.

Although loads of patients were waiting in line and some were going upstairs from the first floor one after another, no one was anxious. Every time they saw the lights still on in Doctor Fang Qiu’s consulting room, they knew that he was still seeing patients and thus had nothing to worry about.

As long as they could see the doctor, they were willing to wait.

The lights blazed all night.

When the doctors from each department arrived for work the next day, they found a line of people waiting in the lobby on the first floor and the lights on the third floor still on. Then they asked the staff and were shocked to learn that Fang Qiu had indeed been seeing patients all night.

“I didn’t expect him to really work all night!”

“Great perseverance. It’s amazing that he’s able to do that at such a young age.”

“Yes, I didn’t even have the perseverance to do so when I was his age, let alone now.”

“Before, I didn’t know why so many people liked Fang Qiu, but I do now. His efforts are truly admirable!”
