Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s-Chapter 256 - Office of Scientific Research

Chapter 256: Office of Scientific Research
Guided by Teacher Xiao Sun, they did not take the usual path leading to the front door of the patient wards; instead, they circled to the back corridor, which was not open to the public. Suddenly, they took a turn, unlocked a door, and went in.
“This area is the internal office space for doctors in our hospital,” Sun Yubo introduced to her, “Normally, it is not disclosed to trainee interns.”
Attending physicians share an office between two or three people, and although resident doctors do not have a permanent desk arrangement, they can use the desks of superior doctors to carry out their work. Associate senior doctors have their own private offices.
“We seldom come here,” Sun Yubo said.
Doctors are very busy; surgeons spend most of their time in the operating room, and when not operating, they are running around the wards, attending meetings, consultations, and making house calls.
Interns and trainees are often left to handle writing medical records and prescribing orders as part of their training, while students are tasked with inputting electronic medical records.
Isn’t there concern that trainees might mess up the prescriptions?
No need to worry, there are official nurses who review both electronic and handwritten prescriptions as a safeguard.
The handwritten medical records and prescriptions must be reviewed by doctors from the same department, and all prescriptions are carried out according to the handwritten orders.
All these processes are completed within the large office in the patient area that bears the sign ‘Doctor’s Office.’
That’s also the place where patients know to look for their doctors.
The internal doctor’s office area is a place unknown to outsiders, as it is not the clinic where doctors see patients. Aside from treating patients, doctors need a quiet space for scientific research and writing papers, which is unrelated to patient care.
Teacher Xiao Sun mentioned that few people come to this area; indeed, along the way, it was deserted, in stark contrast to the crowded doctors’ offices in the patient wards.
The office area was empty, with each office door unmarked. Whether someone was inside or not, the doors were locked, and knocking did not necessarily mean they would be opened. The uninitiated would definitely mistake it for a storage room. Not every hospital has a doctors’ office area, and in some hospitals, these offices are indeed left unused and turned into actual storage rooms.
Sun Yubo first led her into one of the attending physicians’ offices, where he saw that Liu Chengran’s desk was so clean it didn’t have a single speck of dust.
“Brother Liu’s things are all locked in the cabinet and drawers, to avoid damage during cleaning,” Sun Yubo explained, “Let’s go to Teacher Tan’s office; there are more things there.”
Xie Wanying thought for a moment and carefully asked Teacher Xiao Sun, “Does Teacher Tan know I am going to his office?”
“He knows. If he didn’t, I definitely wouldn’t dare to bring you here,” Sun Yubo glanced back at her; did she think he wouldn’t be afraid of Tan Kelin?
Upon entering the associate senior doctor’s office, Xie Wanying took a quick look around: it was different from Senior Cao’s. There weren’t as many cabinets as in Senior Cao’s office.
The locked cabinets were full of clinical academic research data and materials, no wonder they don’t let outsiders know about it.
Turning to see her calm expression, Sun Yubo was quite surprised, as usually medical students would feel curious the first time they came here.
Before her rebirth, Xie Wanying worked in a hospital and knew what a doctor’s office was like. Not putting up a sign for the doctor’s office was to prevent people from seeking personal favors and finding backdoors. If there was a sign, all kinds of people would come looking for private connections.
Most doctors are professionals and dislike such unlawful favoritism. Normal patients can find doctors without needing to seek backdoors.
Coming here, she merely reaffirmed her previous notion. Senior Cao, having returned to the country, now had his own private office, a privilege normally reserved for a chief or deputy chief, indicating that Senior Cao had an office to boast about.
Senior Cao should have two offices.
One visible to others, another for private use.

It’s very likely; some chiefs have two places to work, one just for show to everyone.
