Chapter 538: High Medical Ethics
Chapter 538: High Medical Ethics
The sun shone on the bustling streets, and Zhang Jianjun walked briskly on the road. While he was enjoying the scenery on the street, he was thinking about some recent cases. At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared from the side.
Lou Xiao'e stood in front of Zhang Jianjun with a smile on her face, and her eyes revealed a hint of expectation. She whispered, "Well, Doctor Zhang, do you have time now?" This sudden scene made Zhang Jianjun feel a little surprised. He couldn't help but stop and look up and down at the beautiful and unfamiliar woman in front of him with a puzzled look.
After a long while, Zhang Jianjun came back to his senses and quickly replied, "Oh, I have time now! Excuse me...what do you want to talk to me about?"
Lou Xiao'e smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to hide some warmth and eagerness. She took a half step forward and said softly, "Doctor Zhang, I am Lou Xiao'e. My mother asked me to come to you. She has not been feeling well recently and always feels dizzy. She has been to several hospitals but none of them could diagnose her. Her family is very worried. I heard that you are a famous internal medicine expert in this area, especially with unique insights into difficult and complicated diseases, so..."
Zhang Jianjun's eyes flashed with concentration and understanding. He nodded gently and interrupted Lou Xiao'e: "I understand. Your mother's condition is indeed worrying. Let's put it this way. Don't worry, tell me your mother's detailed symptoms, as well as the previous examinations and diagnosis results. If it's convenient, we can make an appointment for me to examine her in person."
After hearing this, Lou Xiaoe's eyes flashed with gratitude, and she quickly took out a medical record from her bag and handed it to Zhang Jianjun. Zhang Jianjun took the file and read it carefully, his brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, obviously analyzing and thinking seriously.
"Well, based on the information you provided, your mother's condition is indeed a bit complicated. Dizziness may be caused by a variety of reasons, including but not limited to abnormal blood pressure, anemia, cervical spondylosis or even cerebrovascular problems." Zhang Jianjun looked up at Lou Xiaoe and said firmly, "But don't worry, I will arrange a comprehensive physical examination for her, including blood tests, brain CT scans, and cervical spine X-rays, etc., to try to find the root cause of the problem."
Lou Xiao'e nodded repeatedly, her eyes slightly red, as if she had found a savior: "Thank you so much, Doctor Zhang! I really don't know what to do. With you here, I feel much more at ease."
Zhang Jianjun gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her: "Don't worry, Ms. Lou, a doctor's duty is to help patients relieve their pain. I will do my best to find the best treatment plan for your mother."
Afterwards, the two exchanged contact information and agreed to bring Lou Xiao'e's mother to the hospital for a detailed examination the next morning. When Lou Xiao'e left, her steps were obviously much lighter, and her face was filled with hope and gratitude.
The next morning, Zhang Jianjun arrived at the hospital early and personally coordinated various examinations to ensure that everything went smoothly. Lou Xiaoe and her mother arrived as scheduled, and Zhang Jianjun guided the elderly to complete all the examinations with his usual professionalism and patience.
After the test results came out, Zhang Jianjun carefully studied every piece of data and finally locked on a more hidden problem - insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by cervical spinal stenosis. This is an often overlooked cause of disease, but with Zhang Jianjun's rich experience, it has nowhere to hide.
He explained the diagnosis to Lou Xiaoe in detail and gave treatment advice: "Although your mother's condition is complicated, it is not incurable. We can relieve the pressure on the cervical spine through physical therapy and use some drugs to improve blood circulation. If necessary, we can also consider surgical treatment. The important thing is that we must pay close attention to the development of the disease and adjust the treatment plan in time."
After hearing this, Lou Xiao'e's eyes became wet again, this time because she saw a ray of hope: "Dr. Zhang, thank you so much! Our whole family will fully cooperate with your treatment plan."
In the following months, Zhang Jianjun paid close attention to the changes in Lou Xiao'e's mother's condition and adjusted the treatment plan in a timely manner. With the joint efforts of both doctors and patients, the elderly's symptoms gradually eased and her quality of life improved significantly.
This experience not only deepened the trust and friendship between Zhang Jianjun and Lou Xiaoe's family, but also made Zhang Jianjun deeply realize the responsibility and mission of being a doctor. Whenever he recalls this experience in the dead of night, he always feels extremely satisfied and proud.
Lou Xiao'e has also grown from an ordinary person who knows nothing about medicine to a "little expert" who can assist her mother in daily care and even spread correct health knowledge among her fellow patients. She often feels that it was Dr. Zhang Jianjun who gave her family new hope and made her deeply understand the true meaning of "a doctor's benevolence".
One day, Lou Xiao'e brought her mother to the hospital for a follow-up checkup. Various indicators showed that the old woman's recovery was better than expected. Lou Xiao'e excitedly held Zhang Jianjun's hand and said, "Doctor Zhang, you have created a miracle." Zhang Jianjun responded with a smile, his eyes full of satisfaction.
Soon after, the hospital organized excellent doctors to provide free medical services in the countryside, and Zhang Jianjun signed up without hesitation. After Lou Xiaoe learned about this, she actively participated in it and helped to prepare supplies. In the countryside, they met many villagers with difficult and complicated diseases. Zhang Jianjun diagnosed and treated them one by one with his superb medical skills, and Lou Xiaoe patiently explained to the villagers how to prevent diseases with the health knowledge she had learned.
The free clinic was a complete success, and the names of Zhang Jianjun and Lou Xiao'e became famous in the local area. After returning to the hospital, Lou Xiao'e made a silk banner for Zhang Jianjun. The banner read "Miraculous hands bring back the dead, noble medical ethics". Looking at the banner, Zhang Jianjun knew that this was not only an honor, but also an encouragement, which prompted him to keep moving forward on the road of medical practice and use his own strength to save more patients.
