"I heard from a friend that Director Dong's eyesight is good, so I brought my father here." Ms. Li said that on an ordinary clinic day, Dong Yongxiao, an ophthalmologist at the Cataract Refractive Center of Xianyang First People's Hospital, was sitting outside the outpatient clinic. There was a row of patients waiting to be called. Some patients came to Dong Yongxiao's clinic by chance, while others came here because of its reputation. Ms. Li was the latter.
Easy-to-understand language and metaphors make patients aware of the condition
"My father's lens fell off in one eye. A friend in the hospital said that Dr. Dong's eyesight was good, so we asked Dr. Dong for surgery. This time he came here Reviewed," Ms. Li said. She and her father took a car from Jingyang, , early in the morning. After backing up the car twice, they arrived at the hospital at 9 o'clock. "The effect of the operation was pretty good," said Ms. Li's father.
The reporter then followed Ms. Li and her father in to see a doctor. Dong Yongxiao was diagnosing the last patient, "Your illness is a bit serious. It's like falling into the water after 6 steps. You have reached more than 3 now. It needs to be taken seriously..." Dong Yongxiao told the patient. During diagnosis, Dong Yongxiao used many similar metaphors. “This is all to allow patients to understand their condition in an easy-to-understand manner.” Dong Yongxiao said.
Dong Yongxiao's diagnosis method does not stop there. When a patient comes, he will first look at the patient's information, then check the condition of the patient's eyes, then tell the patient the diagnosis results, and explain the cause and treatment plan. His explanation is very organized. He is clear and patient in answering patients' questions one by one. Coupled with his popular language and metaphors, each patient can understand their condition and say, "Okay, okay, I understand" and "Thank you, doctor." …It’s all a nod to his diagnostic approach. When he meets more serious patients, he will enlighten them. When he meets older patients, he will consciously increase his volume and change his tone... These small details may be one of the reasons why he has received high praise in the industry, but there are more. It is his excellent professional skills.
Use pig eyes to practice for surgery
It is understood that Dong Yongxiao has been engaged in ophthalmology for 19 years, treated more than 20,000 patients, performed more than 15,000 operations, and restored sight to many patients who were on the verge of blindness. He is also engaged in scientific research, teaching, and Free clinics in the countryside have made outstanding contributions to the development of ophthalmology in Xianyang City, but these achievements did not happen overnight. Dong Yongxiao told reporters that ophthalmology is more sophisticated than other departments, "just like repairing a watch." Dong Yongxiao said, so he initially started doing this The operation was very slow. “At the beginning, I would walk back and forth on unnecessary roads, and I felt like the assistant working with me was about to fall asleep.” Dong Yongxiao said that on the premise of ensuring the success of the operation, in order to allow himself To become more proficient and save time, he began to practice in his off-duty time.
Under the advice of his seniors, he started to buy pig eyes from nearby pork sellers. After that, he used pig eyes to practice during his off-duty time. Over time, he became familiar with the meat seller. I'll tell you when the time comes, because pig eyes can't be kept open for too long," Dong Yongxiao said. Practicing with pig eyes is also a phased process. Dong Yongxiao will practice based on the problems encountered in different periods. "In this process, we are constantly exploring, constantly discovering and solving problems." Dong Yongxiao said.
In order to let the patient see what his son looked like, he took the risk to perform the operation.
Gradually, he became more and more skilled and met many patients who impressed him. Dong Yongxiao recalled that there was once a patient with liver cirrhosis The old man's overall physical condition was not very good. At that time, the patient's eyes had cataracts and he could hardly see. When he was dying, the patient and his family wanted to undergo cataract surgery. "Because the patient and his son had not seen each other for many years, the patient I want to see what my son looks like." Dong Yongxiao said.
In order to satisfy the patient's wishes, they consulted with other departments. After the consultation, they felt that the risk was too great. "Even if the eye surgery is successful, the old man will die later. If something goes wrong during the surgery, he may not survive as long as he could.""Dong Yongxiao said that after telling his family members about this idea, they gave the doctors full trust and asked them to perform the operation. In the end, the operation was successful. The old man saw what his son looked like as he wished. "At that time, we were confident that we could perform the operation well. But we still felt that there was a risk. It was the family’s understanding that made us more confident to complete the operation. "Dong Yongxiao said that after this incident, Dong Yongxiao felt that although the profession of a doctor is hard, it is worth it, and the sense of accomplishment brought by a successful operation is unparalleled.
Since he started practicing medicine in 2013, he has encountered many similar cases. At this time, for example, he once stopped the patients who were suffering from disability every year from being called disabled; when he first started working as a doctor and his salary was very small, he spent 1/4 of his salary to advance the medical expenses for a patient... All these reflect the noble qualities of the doctor. After practicing medicine for 19 years, he has been interpreting these four meaningful words with practical actions.
