âThis is Mr. Strong Harris.â
âThis is Mr. Strong Harris?â
âMr. Strong Harrisâ¦â
Osbourne, Felix, Karen, Ling ran, and the others stood in front of an independent hospital bed. They all used the âPhysicianâs inspectionâto look at the âMirror image personâin front of them.
This was a lumberjack who was about 60 years old. The traces of time and work had long been embedded in both of his testicles. The wrinkles were deep, dense, and black. There were also clumps of black hair in the middle, it was like black soil with wild grass growing in the summer. Fortunately, the muscles were still firm. They could shrink into a ball, allowing the cheeks to curl up stubbornly and plump.
!!
The crisscrossing lines around the eye sockets where the wrinkles were concentrated made Harrisâcheeks look like a sketch where light and shadow intersected. The black and dense plates were concentrated and eye-catching, but at this moment, they were filled with confusion.
âI thought that we only needed one doctor to perform a surgery,âHarris mumbled uneasily when the room quieted down.
Osbourne laughed with an aloof attitude. âIndeed, there are many surgeries that only need one doctor, but we plan to use a few more people for your surgery.â
It was not easy to meet a mirror image person. Even if they had already promised Ling ran, it was inevitable that a few people would come to try their luck.
âThen, there will be a few doctors who will bill us, right?âHarrisâwife, who also looked very old, asked anxiously.
Osbourne gave a comforting smile that he had practiced for a long time, he said, âMs. Sandra, weâve discussed this topic before. You Donât have to pay any bills, including the expenses for your meals and accommodation in Cleveland. It will all be covered by the CCF. âItâs the same for the doctors. No matter how many doctors we use, the CCF will be responsible for all the expenses.â
âLetâs include the expenses for the round trip as well. We donât have the money to fly on that big medical plane.âSandra continued to ask.
Osbourne smiled and nodded. He then asked someone to bring Sandra out and ended the conversation with her.
A few doctors surrounded Harris again and stared at his big and small eyes. Then, they used their gloved or ungloved hands to caress the 60-year-old lumberjack.
âIt feels pretty good.âOnce he left the ward, Osbourne smiled even more happily than Ling ran.
He had not been a doctor for a long time. This way, he did not have to face the patients directly. Instead, he felt the most. As he walked along the snowy-white corridor of the ward, Osbourneâs breathing became a little excited.
Ling ran also nodded slightly and agreed, âEspecially in the liver area. The feeling is very unique.â
âIndeed. The sound of the percussion of the heart has also changed.âOsbourne took a deep breath, he chuckled and said, âFortunately, I made a decision early. Otherwise, this guy would have gone to South Florida to seek medical treatment. It would have been a waste. âHMM, your request is also very important. When I was young, why didnât I think of such a request for a mirror image surgery⦠?â
Ling ran looked at Osbourne strangely.
âBack then, my mentor asked me what I wanted so that I was willing to stay in Clevelandâ¦âOsbourne was filled with reminiscence. He could not help but laugh and said, âAt that time, my mind was filled with student loans, so I blurted out that I wanted 100,000 US dollars!â
âItâs normal to use it to pay off the loans.âLing ran expressed his understanding. His father, Ling Jiezhou, had also tried to run a loan business in the past. The burden was heavier than he had imagined.
Osbourne laughed out loud. âEven Cleveland wouldnât have given me a signing fee of 100,000 US dollars at that time. âOf course, I wouldnât have used the signing fee to pay off my student loan! âI went to Las Vegas. It was a wonderful weekâ¦â
The people around them, especially the medical staff of the Cleveland Clinic, looked at Osbourne helplessly. The director of the center in front of them felt a little different.
Osbourne did not care about the others. He only looked at Ling ran and said, âIf I had made a request like yours back then, I might have gotten the opportunity I have now a few years earlier.â
Ling ran smiled.
Osbourne continued, âIf you came to the Cleveland Clinic, you would have gotten the opportunity that I didnât even have back then.â
The medical staff of the Cleveland Clinic were quite surprised by such a direct request to recruit Ling ran.
Ling ran shook his head calmly. Over the years, he had received too much information like this. The Cleveland Clinic⦠was too far away from home.
Even the subordinates around Ling ran had very calm expressions on their faces.
Similarly, over the years, there were many organizations and individuals who wanted to seduce Ling ran. In the beginning, Lu Wenbin and the others were worried that Ling ran would be kidnapped. Now, they were not worried at all, at worst, they could just follow Doctor Ling.
Lu Wenbin, who was a little behind the group, was even a little bored. He was a little too lazy to listen to foreigners trying to recruit him in English. He directly used the English that he had gathered for a long time to ask a certain Chinese doctor beside him, he said, âI heard just now that itâs free treatment? Canât this patientâs insurance cover all the treatment fees?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âFree treatment, free food and lodging, free transportation, and the water, electricity, and living expenses of their families,âthe chinese-american doctor directly used Chinese, as he walked, he said, âAs far as I know, after Doctor Ling made the request, he only found a suitable mirror image person. Otherwise, it would have been simpler. âAs for insurance, the Lumberjack Insurance in Florida will definitely not be able to cover the Cleveland Clinic.â
Lu Wenbin clicked his tongue. âThere are quite a lot of restrictions on medical insurance.â
âThe Cleveland Clinic has been trying to increase the channels for obtaining patients. Even so, the number of discharged patients from the clinic for the whole year is only around 220,000, and the number of surgeries is around 150,000.â
â150,000?âLu Wenbin confirmed in Chinese again. âArenât there two to three million patients?â
âOne-twentieth of them are hospitalized and discharged.âAfter the chinese-american Doctor finished speaking, he continued, âThe number of patients discharged from Johns Hopkins every year is only around 20,000.â
Lu Wenbin laughed when he heard that. âWhat can 20,000 people do? Our Yun Hua Hospital can produce 20,000 patients in a month, and we can do more in a year than the Cleveland Clinic?â
âThatâs because the Cleveland Clinic has a total of five districts, which is equivalent to five hospitals.âThe Chinese-american doctor explained to Lu Wenbin, âThe five hospitals have more than 200,000 surgeries a year, but they have more than 60,000 employees. Therefore, the Cleveland Clinic is the hospital with the best medical service in the United States, and itâs also a hospital that most peopleâs insurance canât cover.â
Compared to the American doctor, Osbourne, the Chinese doctorâs explanation was much clearer.
Lu Wenbin was a little absent-minded. âIf thatâs really the case, the number of surgeries you can perform wonât be enough to feed the Ling Treatment Group.â
âThatâs indeed the case. The lower the workload, the higher the requirements, the higher the service requirements, the slightly higher the salary, but the huge expenses, especially the medical accident insuranceâ¦âthe Chinese doctor said this in Chinese, he said in a slightly more serious tone, âSometimes, if you think about it, working in the Cleveland Clinic is better than working back in China.â
âWhy donât you try to return to China no matter what you thinkâ¦âwhen Lu Wenbin said this, his blunt train of thought finally cleared up. He could not help but stop and look at the Chinese-american doctor next to him again. âWhatâs Your Name Again?â
âZeng Guorong,âthe chinese-american doctor said in a low voice, âI went abroad in junior high school. I studied at Johns Hopkins University and received my doctorate. I received resident doctor training at the Cleveland Clinic, received training in cardiology, and published papers in journals such as The Lancetâ¦â
The extremely luxurious resume was like a job-hunting report. It entered Lu Wenbinâs ears in a low voice.
There was not a single doctor who could gain a firm foothold in the Cleveland Clinic who did not have a luxurious resume.
Lu Wenbinâs expression gradually became strange. He looked at the other doctors on both sides and could not help but say, âYou and your colleagues seem to treat us a little differently.â
The Chinese-american doctor, Zeng Guorong, smiled and said, âI think that doctors who have seen Doctor Lingâs surgery and those who have never seen Doctor Lingâs surgery will probably have completely different performances.â
âOh?â
âBecause you are doctors from China, I especially watched Doctor Lingâs surgery videosâ¦âas Zeng Guorong spoke, his expression had already become solemn. âAfter they have seen Doctor Lingâs surgery, I believe that their performance will not be much different from mine.â
