Chapter Eighteen: Same Medicine Different Dosage

  "Doctor Wang!" The young man who was about to leave was stunned, and subconsciously followed Miao Runfeng's gaze to see Wang Xu standing at the door of the emergency room.

  Taking a clear look at Wang Xu's appearance, the young man subconsciously furrowed his brow and looked at Miao Runfeng again, with a hint of suspicion and puzzlement in his eyes.

  "Ah! Director Miao, it's you." Just as the young man was stunned, a middle-aged man in his fifties with a smile all over his face walked up from behind the young man, bending down to extend both hands to Miao Runfeng.

  "Who are you?" Miao Runfeng looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and asked politely.

  "I am from Yunzhong District Health Office. You visited our office last year and I saw you." The middle-aged man hastily introduced himself with a smile, and after the introduction, he hurriedly said to the young man beside him: "Dongzi, this is Director Miao of the Health Bureau."

  This middle-aged man is a relative of the young man, working at the Yunzhong District Health Center in Yuncheng, and is considered a small section chief. The young man's family called him over just to make up the numbers, but it turns out that this person is actually Miao, the director of the Health Bureau, so the young man's family became flustered.

  Miao Runfeng is the director of Yun City Health Bureau, a department-level cadre. The people who were just unclear about his identity suddenly woke up and realized it, and the surrounding crowd burst into an uproar.

  "Miao... Director!" The young man was even more incoherent, not knowing what to say. Earlier, he had heard the hospital's director address this middle-aged man as "Director", and knew he was an important figure, but never thought that this person was actually the Director of the Health Department.

  Miao Runfeng waved his hand, interrupting the young man's words behind him, and smiled: "Don't call me Director, I'm also a patient coming to the hospital for treatment. Today is my discharge day, so I came to say goodbye to Dr. Wang."

  Miao Runfeng smiled and nodded at Wang Xu: "Doctor Wang, I'll take my leave first. You're busy, come visit me when you have time."

  Miao Runfeng turned around and left the emergency room with Lian Xiaoyu after throwing out such a sentence.

  Watching Miao Runfeng's receding back, Wang Xu sighed and shook his head, never expecting that this Miao Runfeng was actually a clever person.

  Although Miao Runfeng has left, the shock he brought has not dissipated. Even Director Miao of the hospital came to bid farewell to this young doctor before leaving the hospital...

  The news of Wang Xu curing Miao Rufen's illness two days ago was not a secret, and the doctors and nurses around the emergency room were already whispering to each other. Before long, the onlookers also found out that it was this young doctor who had cured Director Miao's illness.

  Listening to the whispers around him, Zhang Yiming sighed and shook his head, looked at the time, it was already 12 o'clock noon, stretched out his hand to invite Wang Xu to go eat together, with Miao Runfeng interrupting, the matter from earlier was also settled.

  Watching Wang Xu and Zhang Yi Ming leave, Wang Chen Long felt as gloomy as he could be, as uncomfortable as he could be. Today, he was completely humiliated.

  The murmurs of the people around, although not loud, were also not small, Wang Chenlong naturally heard clearly. Today he became a stepping stone for Wang Xu, making Wang Xu's reputation in traditional Chinese medicine internal medicine soar.

  It is obvious that the most abundant thing in this world is gossip. Wang Chenlong treated someone's child, but after two treatments, there was no effect, and he even quarreled with the patient's family until they were at odds with each other. Naturally, his impression in the hearts of these patients who lined up to see him fell. On the other hand, Wang Xu cured the illness of Miao, the director of the Health Department, so it is clear at a glance who is superior and who is inferior.

  After this interlude, Wang Xu finished lunch and returned to work at one o'clock. The waiting room was already packed with people, and Zhao Kai was busy organizing medical records.

  Taking advantage of the gap during meals, many patients with Wang Chenlong's number plate hastily changed to Wang Xu. In just one hour, the situation in the two clinics suddenly reversed.

  Looking at the thick medical records in his hands, and the continuous flow of patients coming in, Zhao Kai couldn't help but sigh. Miao Runfeng even personally came over to give Wang Xu a boost, which made his heart even more apprehensive.

  Of course, this is where Zhao Kai went wrong. Miao Runfeng came forward only because of a sudden impulse and happened to coincide with the event. He just happened to encounter such a thing and subconsciously helped Wang Xu a little. From Miao Runfeng's perspective, even if he wanted to help Wang Xu, he wouldn't use this method.

  "Doctor Wang, please take a look at my son. He's had diarrhea for a week and has lost so much weight." The young man who caused the commotion that morning had also made an appointment with Doctor Wang and was right in front of them. After seeing five patients, it was finally their turn.

  "Come, let me take a look." Wang Xu beckoned the young woman carrying the child to sit across from him and began to carefully examine the child's condition.

  The child is only about three years old, a pretty lovely little boy, but at this time his face is pale, his eyes are dull, and he has indeed lost a lot of energy. Wang Xu first looked at the child's tongue coating, then took the child's pulse, and only then smiled: "It doesn't matter, this is spleen deficiency catching external evil or food injury leading to digestive function disorder."

  Wang Xu said as he wrote a prescription and handed it over, "Go back and take the medicine according to the prescription, I guarantee that the disease will be cured when the medicine is taken."

  "Thank you, Dr. Wang." The young man hastily took over the prescription and thanked him.

  "It's all right." Wang Xu waved his hand and instructed Zhao Kai to lead the other party out, inviting the next patient in.

  "Huh!" The young man took the prescription and walked out while casually looking at it. Just as he was about to leave the hospital room, he suddenly stopped and let out a surprised cry.

  "What's wrong?" asked the young woman holding the child in puzzlement.

  "How is it that the prescription this doctor wrote is the same as the one written by the doctor next door?" The young man muttered to himself, then pulled out another prescription from his own body for comparison.

  "It's indeed the same." The young woman looked at the two prescriptions and exclaimed in surprise, then the two of them walked towards Wang Xu again.

  "What's wrong? Is there any doubt?" Wang Xu asked with a smile as he saw the other person walking back, earlier the two of them were whispering at the door, their voices not loud, and he hadn't made out what they were saying.

  "Dr. Wang, the prescription you wrote is the same as the one written by that doctor next door! My son has been taking it for two days and there's no effect." The young man said with a frown, his eyes looking at Wang Xu without the respect they had when he first came in. Probably if it weren't for Miao Runfeng's relationship, this young man would have started scolding again.

  Wang Xu was also slightly surprised, took the two prescriptions and compared them. After finishing, he smiled and shook his head. The medicines listed on these two prescriptions were indeed the same, including ginseng, white peony, tuckahoe, licorice root, perilla leaf, costus root and kudzu root, which was exactly the formula of White Peony Powder with some modifications. The only difference was the dosage of kudzu root in it.

  Wang Chenlong's prescription, all the medicinal materials were one liang in quantity, while Wang Xu increased the dosage of Kudzu root to two liangs, which is to say that it was doubled.

  After seeing the difference clearly, Wang Xu smiled and handed two medical prescriptions to Zhao Kai: "Take a look at what's different?"

  Zhao Kai took over the prescription and carefully read it through, only then did he say in surprise: "The dosage of Kudzu root is different."

  "Not bad." Wang Xu nodded, took back the prescription and handed it to the young man: "In fact, Dr. Wang Chenlong's prescription is correct, but the dosage is not well controlled. The child's symptoms are prolonged diarrhea, which has caused the stomach's fluid to sink, making his mouth dry and thirsty. He needs to drink water constantly. I will double the use of Kudzu root to increase the stomach's fluid and achieve the goal of relieving thirst. As long as we stop the thirst first, this diarrhea will naturally be cured."

  The young man listened to Wang Xu's explanation, carefully compared the two prescriptions, and suddenly said with a grateful face: "Thank you, Doctor Wang. If my son gets better, I will definitely send you a silk banner."

  "No need for the banner, doctors can't guarantee a hundred percent cure rate, I hope you understand." Wang Xu said with a faint smile, although he didn't get along with Wang Chenlong, but he also couldn't stand the young man causing trouble in the morning.

  Doctors treating illnesses and saving lives are like walking on thin ice, even small illnesses have variables, and even the most skilled doctors can make mistakes. As a doctor, Wang Xu naturally had his share of mistakes, which is why he said those words.

  "I understand, thank you Dr. Wang, it was our fault this morning." The young man was quite clever and immediately understood the implication of Dr. Wang's words, smiled and nodded his head, then led his wife out of the consulting room.

  This afternoon was the busiest one for Wang Xu after he arrived at the First Affiliated Hospital, from 1 pm to 5:30 pm, before he finished seeing all the patients who had made appointments today.

  After finishing his work, Wang Xu stretched his waist and finally came out of the consulting room, only to find that he had coincidentally bumped into Wang Chenlong who was also coming out at the same time.

  Wang Chenlong was unusually free this afternoon, and like Wang Xu in the morning, he had seen five or six patients and had nothing to do. At this time, seeing Wang Xu, Wang Chenlong suddenly felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly walked away.

  A few days ago, he was still under pressure from the large number of patients and scolded Wang Xu, but now it's been only a short period of two or three days, and the situation has turned around. PS: Laughing again with a thick face asking for recommendation votes.
