Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 385 - 345: The Decision Is Made

"Teacher, didn’t you say there were still a few months? Why so sudden?"

Zhao Heng asked Gao Jun with some confusion. The establishment of the Center for Anesthesia and Perioperative Management had Professor Huang Guangyu appointed as the director. Of course, this director role was mainly for appearances, and the actual person in charge was Gao Jun.

Although it was a transition, the transition period shouldn’t be this short, logically.

"I owe it to you, Xiao Zhao. Without your outstanding performances on those two occasions, I wouldn’t have been able to become director so quickly."

Gao Jun said slowly.

Although Gao Jun’s father was a leader in the department, everything couldn’t advance too fast publicly. At least there needed to be substantial achievements to facilitate the promotion.

And Zhao Heng, with his notable achievements and performance in "Brain-Eating Amoeba" infection, intrathecal analgesia treatment, and nano therapy, helped establish the Center for Anesthesia and Perioperative Management as a new department with a reputation in the industry, quickly confirming its standing.

Gao Jun, who led this center from its inception to achieve such dazzling results in such a short time, undoubtedly deserved to quickly become the director.

All this is thanks to Zhao Heng.

Thus, the deputy director position naturally had to be reserved for Zhao Heng.

This can be seen as mutual achievement between mentor and apprentice.

"Yes, Xiao Zhao. Your performances also had a significant positive influence on our hospital. After discussion with the hospital committee, it was decided to appoint you as the deputy director of the Anesthesia Center. Of course, this is just the result of an internal discussion, and there are still many procedures to go through."

Liu Shangming looked appreciatively at Zhao Heng and said.

He wasn’t one of those old relics from the last century who judged everything by education and qualifications. In a hospital, personal ability is always the most important.

Since Zhao Heng’s skills have reached a level where he can work with top scientists like Professor Li Hongwei to develop nano materials, there’s no reason the hospital couldn’t appoint Zhao Heng as a deputy director.

If Eastern Hospital doesn’t make a gesture, other hospitals or even research institutes might poach Zhao Heng.

After all, Zhao Heng’s abilities are widely recognized, not only his clinical skills but also his research capabilities, personally certified by Professor Li Hongwei.

In the industry, without a doubt, Zhao Heng is the hottest rising star!

"Director, isn’t this a bit too fast?"

Zhao Heng said with some doubt.

Being appointed as deputy director is indeed a promotion, and promotions with raises are always good for any employee, especially for a doctor reaching the deputy director grade, which offers excellent treatment and status.

What Zhao Heng worried about was his age. In neurosurgery, Liu Ziang became a deputy director in his early thirties, which is widely talked about.

But Zhao Heng was only twenty-five. At this age, even with a combined bachelor’s and master’s degree, he hadn’t yet completed his postgraduate studies.

Given the competitive environment nowadays, at twenty-five, one typically only holds a bachelor’s degree, and in some places, can barely qualify for a county hospital, let alone a community hospital.

If Zhao Heng hadn’t repeatedly proven his competence, he certainly wouldn’t be managing a ward himself now.

"Generally speaking, you are indeed too young, but not everything should be judged by age. Everyone has witnessed your performance and contributions to the hospital. So don’t feel pressured. If there’s anything you’re unsure about or find difficult, go directly to Director Gao. If that doesn’t work, you can come to me at any time."

Director Liu Shangming advised Zhao Heng.

While he was heading the oncology department, Zhao Heng’s idea of implanting an intrathecal analgesia device greatly advanced pain management for late-stage cancer, earning Liu Shangming’s admiration for Zhao Heng even then.

Since Liu Shangming became the director, Zhao Heng’s contributions to the hospital has increased even further. Not to mention that during the "Brain-Eating Amoeba" infection event, Zhao Heng discovered an effective treatment method, bringing fame to Eastern Hospital across two countries for the first time.

For a top-tier hospital like Eastern Hospital, it’s well-known domestically but relatively unknown abroad.

In handling the "Brain-Eating Amoeba" infection, Zhao Heng found an effective treatment method when everyone else was helpless. His excellent performance on an international stage also placed Eastern Hospital firmly on the department’s map.

It’s a timely boon for Liu Shangming, who assumed the director position under pressing circumstances.

"The director is right, Xiao Zhao. Don’t worry about anything. Professionally, you’re more than competent. As for management, you can learn it gradually, without too much burden." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Gao Jun also encouraged Zhao Heng.

His sentiment matched that of Director Liu Shangming. Ever since the establishment of the Center for Anesthesia and Perioperative Management, Gao Jun felt significant pressure. Although having Professor Huang as an honorary director helped somewhat, Gao Jun, despite being top-tier in terms of professional competence, hadn’t yet reached the pinnacle domestically.
