I don't know if it's because Teacher Li was giving consultations in the reproductive technology department initially, but that morning, Teacher Li had about forty appointments. At Teacher Li's pace, there was no way to finish them all in one morning, and another time had to be arranged to see the rest of the patients. A clinical teacher with a Bodhisattva heart, she rarely refused any patient who came pleading for an additional number.
It's said that the appointment numbers for other obstetrics and gynecology teachers are similar to Teacher Li's. But for Teacher Du, it's terrifying, with over eighty appointments.
Before the consultation room opened, family members of patients were clustered in piles at the door of the doctor's consultation room. The contrast with the adjacent rooms was stark. The anxiety, and fear that their family member might not be seen by the doctor, was nowhere near as strong outside the other consultation rooms.
