Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 536 - 417: The Long Road Ahead for Medical Science Popularization (Part 2)
Finally, there’s the high bridge of the nose and the sharp chin that could crack a walnut.
"So, how’s my figure?"
Hearing this, Xu Man Ni turned her head, seemingly casual but actually serious, and asked Zhao Heng.
"You have a standard figure, everything’s just right."
Zhao Heng replied.
This was the standard answer, women just couldn’t stand hearing the word "fat," but Xu Man Ni really was the kind that if she lost a pound she’d be too thin, and if she gained one she’d be too fat, she was just right.
"Alright then."
Xu Man Ni nodded, somewhat satisfied with this answer.
She still had high expectations for herself, but currently, given her work status, she couldn’t pursue them too excessively, though she considered her figure to be kept quite well.
Weight is entirely a matter of family genes; some people gain weight just from drinking water, while others can’t put on any weight no matter how much they eat.
In fact, modern research shows that in the human genome, there isn’t a single gene that can cause obesity. Obesity is the result of the combined action of multiple genes, environment, and lifestyle factors.
The latest research has found that obesity may be related to 18 genes, which control physiological processes like energy metabolism, insulin secretion, and blood sugar.
Xu Man Ni knew well that for men, physical appearance always takes precedence over emotion, and for women, it’s the exact opposite.
This is an innate order of perception, it’s how things are.
So, no man, right off the bat, pays attention to a woman’s "inner beauty"; even if they care about that, it’s only after the external appearance meets the standard.
If the appearance doesn’t pass, then it’s a direct pass.
After having lunch at the cafeteria, Xu Man Ni went to Zhao Heng’s office. Xu Man Ni wasn’t on duty today, so she could rest for a while at noon.
She leaned on the sofa and closed her eyes to relax. Zhao Heng wasn’t sleepy at all; he took advantage of the rare break to start scrolling through Bilibili.
As soon as he opened Bilibili, Zhao Heng noticed there were many more messages in the background. A quick glance showed people urging updates, others wanting him to see patients, and some even sent their medical cases directly to him, all sorts of messages.
No matter how proficient Zhao Heng was, he couldn’t diagnose just based on a few words online; not only is it highly unprofessional, but it also poses significant risks.
With the continuous development of online technology, more and more medical institutions and doctors are starting to offer online medical consultation services.
For patients, online consultations save time, reduce costs, and can somewhat minimize the risk of in-clinic infections, but in reality, online consultations have significant issues.
Firstly, due to the inability to conduct on-site observation and examination, it is quite easy for doctors to misjudge conditions and provide incorrect treatment plans.
Secondly, the regulation and management of online consultation platforms is very challenging. Some unscrupulous individuals may exploit online consultations for illegal activities, defrauding patients of their money, giving erroneous medical advice, or even endangering patients’ lives.
Moreover, when using online consultation services, patients are required to provide personal and medical information, all of which belongs to privacy and poses a risk of privacy leakage.
Therefore, when ill, it’s best to go to a formal hospital for treatment instead of seeking online consultations easily.
As Zhao Heng continued scrolling, he saw a video titled "Still asking to save the mother or the child? The medical errors that doctors want to complain about most in medical dramas!"
Watching the video briefly, Zhao Heng realized that the person commenting in the video was a cosmetic surgeon.
Scrolling further down to the comment section, the top-liked comment was like this.
"Help! They can’t even meet the basic requirement of buttoning up the white coat, it’s just floating around like a cape, so uncomfortable to watch. And the nurses, let’s not talk about makeup, but wearing 8cm high heels, my God, help! Even wearing flats all day gives varicose veins, nurses in heels are just warriors!"
Upon seeing this comment, Zhao Heng couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"What’s so funny?"
Hearing Zhao Heng laugh, Xu Man Ni opened her eyes and asked, looking at Zhao Heng.
"Here."
Zhao Heng handed the phone to Xu Man Ni.
"It’s true though, no nurse wears high heels to work, unless they don’t want their feet."
Xu Man Ni said with a face full of agreement.
"It’s probably for the image."
Zhao Heng said.
"Actually, being a medical consultant is quite redundant; even if you correct things, for the sake of shooting schedules, they’re not going to change that many lines."
Pausing for a moment, Zhao Heng suddenly said.
"Didn’t you say you know that director?"
Xu Man Ni asked.
"I know him, but work is work. Besides, current medical dramas are just putting on a facade; what everyone loves watching is handsome men and beautiful women in white coats falling in love."
Zhao Heng said helplessly.
"There are some realistic medical documentaries though, but not many people watch them."
Xu Man Ni thought for a moment and said.
"You know, current medical education videos are either too serious or too focused on entertainment, making it hard to remember anything afterwards." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Zhao Heng said somewhat emotionally.
If medical education could be advanced to a certain degree, doctor-patient conflicts would be greatly reduced.
After all, many doctor-patient conflicts arise from patients lacking medical knowledge and poor communication.
"Didn’t you make quite a few episodes before? How were the reactions?"
Xu Man Ni asked curiously.
She knew Zhao Heng had been making medical education videos before.
"The view count was relatively okay."
Zhao Heng said slowly. Previously, he made educational videos partly for education and also to earn some extra cash.
Now he has basically achieved financial freedom, whether it earns income or not, it doesn’t matter. This allows Zhao Heng to consider what kind of videos to make in the future.
"Are you thinking about future video content?"
Xu Man Ni asked.
"I’m thinking if there’s a good intersection point that can educate while leaving a deep impression."
Zhao Heng said.
"That’s really difficult. Do you remember at Friendship Hospital they had that ’Heartbeat Offer’ show?"
Xu Man Ni said with a slight shake of her head.
"Heard of it, it was a reality show variety at the hospital, but it didn’t seem to be very effective, and there wasn’t a second season."
Zhao Heng said.
"Yeah, and in a place like Friendship Hospital, they couldn’t even get a second season of a reality show going. You should just stick to making educational videos. Moreover, considering how much you have going on at the center now, where would you find so much time and energy."
Xu Man Ni advised.
Speaking of advanced and open concepts, Friendship Hospital is a leader in the country.
At least in Eastern Hospital, the board wouldn’t agree to shoot reality shows like the "Heartbeat Offer" within the hospital. They might at most agree to let a crew shoot scenes.
"The profession of doctors isn’t suitable for reality shows itself. The focus of a reality show is on ’show,’ meaning there’s a script, and medical matters aren’t suited for this type of presentation."
Zhao Heng shook his head slightly.
Just thinking about doing a reality show in the department, and creating some sort of drama, made Zhao Heng feel a headache.
"If you truly want to do something, in the future why not make a documentary or something similar? It doesn’t have to be too heavy, just focus on portraying patients who’ve had miraculous recoveries."
"You know, you have quite a few cases of difficult diseases you’ve treated successfully."
Xu Man Ni suggested again.
She was very supportive of Zhao Heng’s career, knowing well he was someone with ideas and ambitions, not just treating the profession of a doctor as a job.
"Promoting the treatment of difficult diseases does come off as a bit boastful."
"Forget it, I’ll think about it later. When I meet with Old Luo, I could ask him, since he’s the expert."
Zhao Heng pondered for a moment and said.
He wanted to do many things but could only take them one step at a time, as nothing is accomplished in one go.
