"There are two secretaries at the front desk of the surgical clinic on the 12th floor, and more than 20 people are sitting quietly on the neatly stacked sofas opposite them.

There was no one in line in front of me, so I walked straight over and explained my purpose. One of the secretaries asked me to wait nearby, and she entered the office area at the back. During this period, I saw many people wearing name badges and wearing suits coming in and out.

Later I learned that doctors have to wear suits instead of white coats when making outpatient visits and ward rounds."

"Actually, Mayo has never given me a white coat, and I don't think I need it. Because when I go to the operating room, I have another set of clothes, and usually I wear a suit to show respect for the patient."

After hearing what Tang Xianhu said, Tang Lou was also a little surprised when the Mayo Clinic wore suits for outpatient visits and ward rounds.

Tangxianhu continues to share about Tanglou, and it is also a review of his unforgettable journey.

"Kendrick's secretary is a capable lady in her 50s who is responsible for things other than clinical matters. She is very warm and kind to me.

The wards are all open and have no doors, so I quickly got lost.

She may have noticed it, so she took a map to me from the booklets classified on the wall. But I focused on other handbooks, there were many types, including perioperative precautions, rehabilitation guidance, and psychological counseling.

There is even guidance on smoking cessation. Each ward has different emphases depending on the type of disease.

.The same thing is that there is a line of small words on the cover of each manual, "Patient Education". There are other display boards on the wall, including certificates, photos of doctors, letters of thanks, preferences filled in by the patients themselves, and photos of doctors and patients.

Wait, the decoration is very detailed, warm, and has the warmth of home..."

"It was already 9 o'clock when I changed clothes and showed up in the operating room, but I really didn't expect that I arrived at the operating room smoothly on my first day at Mayo. The first time I met Kendrick was also in the operating room. He and I

After just a few brief exchanges of greetings, we began to focus on the surgery again.

This total laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy is Kendrick's specialty, and he still holds the record for the most number of this surgery performed in the United States.

In addition to him on the stage, there was an assistant who held the mirror and a resident who took 10 seconds to cut the thread. The slow resident did not seem to worry Kendrick, so he asked the resident to perform the gallbladder surgery.

A long 40 minutes passed, but he still patiently encouraged the resident until the gallbladder was completely removed from the liver.

I estimate that it took him 10 minutes at most to complete it, but he lost half an hour in vain because he had to train this unfamiliar junior doctor.

However, when I saw the satisfaction and confidence in the resident’s eyes, I felt that this half hour was indeed worth it.”

When Tang Xianhu said this, he was also very emotional. If a junior doctor dared to perform such a slow operation in China, he would have been kicked out long ago. Where would there be a second chance?

.

Tang Xianhu recalled that when he was young, when he was an intern, he was walking on thin ice every time he entered the operating room, for fear that something would go wrong and he would be kicked out by the superior doctor.

It can be said that domestic interns and residents are so cautious in getting through the early stages of their medical careers, so it is simply unimaginable that a resident can spend ten seconds to cut a thread.

"Tanglou, don't you envy Mayo's way of getting along between superior and subordinate doctors?"

Tang Xianhu asked with emotion.

"I don't feel it."

Tang Lou said lightly, after all, to him, the chief surgeon and the superior doctor, as long as they enter the operating room, are just tools shouting slogans.

Are you afraid of being scolded by your superior doctor or making mistakes? It doesn’t exist.

Regarding Tanglou's answer, Tangxianhu almost shut himself down.

"What the hell am I talking about with a genius like this? The fear of being dominated by a superior doctor."

Next, Tang Xianhu shared the upcoming itinerary with Tang Lou. After listening, Tang Lou became very interested in the Mayo Clinic.

Seeing that Tanglou was almost in the mood, Tang Xianhu said slowly: "This time I went to the Mayo Clinic. In addition to the inspection, I also got an opportunity to be a visiting scholar from there. Of course, in addition to Zijingang Hospital,

Your name, your own ability is also very important, especially this time your cardiologist's surgical procedures were so standardized that the experts and professors at Mayo were also surprised, and they are even more curious about you personally."

"Go to the Mayo Clinic in the United States as a visiting scholar?"

Only then did Tang Lou understand what Tang Xianhu had been talking about for a long time. The purpose of co-writing was to help him quickly identify with the Mayo Clinic and experience the sense of honor of entering it.

After all, very few doctors can refuse the place of visiting scholar at Mayo Clinic.

"Yes, this visit to the Mayo Clinic lasts for a regular 3-5 months. The final length depends on your performance at the Mayo Clinic."

The reason why Tang Xianhu wants to instill the power of Mayo in Tanglou first is to pave the way for this period of time. After all, for a visiting scholar to go abroad, four or five months is still a very long time.

If it were any other young doctor, Tang Xianhu wouldn't worry at all, but Tanglou is too special. After all, he almost gave up on going to the Imperial Capital for a few days before. This trip to the United States is still very long.

"By going to the Mayo Clinic, in addition to being able to appreciate the atmosphere of the world's number one hospital, you can also participate in various new surgical procedures and cutting-edge theoretical research on various diseases, which is very helpful for your career."

At first, Tanglou was still a little interested, but when he went to Mayo to learn new surgical techniques and the most cutting-edge disease theory research, Tanglou was a little less interested. After all, what he lacked most were surgical techniques and theories.

Sensing Tanglou's disinterest, Tang Xianhu frowned. This Tanglou was really difficult to deal with.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit the Mayo Clinic in the United States.

"In this case, you don't have to express your position in a hurry. Dr. Patricia will come to our hospital tomorrow for academic exchanges and surgical guidance. At that time, you can communicate with him. Once you have seen Patricia's surgical skills, you will know that Mei

The great thing about Ao Clinic.”

Tang Xianhu was hesitant when he saw Tang Lou and stopped asking him any more. Instead, he was going to wait for Patricia to come over and see the doctors at Mayo Hospital. He believed that Tang Lou would accept the nearly half-year visiting scholar career in the United States.

.

Of course, what he didn't tell Tang Lou was that Tang Xianhu arranged for Tang Lou to go to the Mayo Clinic this time because he wanted Tang Lou to get involved in some of the core topics of the Mayo Clinic.

A breakthrough in any subject will be a blessing to all mankind.

Of course, whether Tanglou can be finally selected for these topics still depends on Tanglou's own strength. After all, the Mayo Clinic brings together talented doctors from all over the world.
