In order to prevent another operation and the lack of anesthesiologists, Zhou Qiao took Elena to the community hospital.
Talked to the person in charge there and signed a rental agreement for the operating room.
The Iris Clinic itself actually has an operating room, and it used to have its own anesthesia team, so unless it was a very major operation, it would rent an operating room at the University of California Medical Center. Usually, the Iris Clinic can do anything that nearby community hospitals can do. Do.
But now, hasn’t the anesthesiologist resigned? If we recruit again, the cost will be too high, so we might as well rent it at a community hospital.
Since Iris Clinic and the community hospital lacked a basis for cooperation before, the monthly settlement agreement could not be negotiated, and the final confirmed terms were to charge based on the number of visits.
Regarding this, Zhou Qiao must reluctantly accept it. He now has some money on hand and can afford to pay.
Besides, the wool comes from the sheep, and when the time comes, it will be taken out from the patient.
Although the amount paid by the patient is relatively small, commercial health insurance and the government's medical insurance foundation contribute the majority, but the payment will arrive a few days late, so Zhou Qiao needs to advance some funds.
In addition to operating rooms equipped with anesthesiologists and anesthesia nurses, community hospitals also promise that as long as Zhou Qiao is capable and technically competent, they can also provide many other medical activity venues and equipment, such as thrombolysis and intracranial aneurysm stents. , organ transplantation, heart bypass, joint replacement, etc.
Although these may not be needed in the short term, they are charged based on the number of uses anyway, and there is no need to pay if they are not used, so Zhou Qiao still asked the other party to add them to the agreement.
There is no monthly discount, and the only use of this agreement is that it is equivalent to saying hello in advance and filing it at the community hospital. When you come for surgery in the future, you only need to make an appointment phone call without having to review and approve various documents separately.
Community hospitals require that you make an appointment at least one day in advance. It would be better if it is made three days in advance.
Because there are so many private clinics, many small clinics are not even as good as Iris, and some do not even have operating rooms.
Anesthesiologists in community hospitals are also very busy.
As for the University of California Medical Center, which is a higher-level hospital, it is estimated that Zhou Qiao will not be able to receive such complicated surgeries for the time being. Even if he does, other patients will not let him do it. At most, Iris Clinic will refer the patients. past.
…
After Zhou Qiao immigrated here, he has been busy and has not had much fun. Elena and Ava have also been working for many days in a row. Zhou Qiao gave everyone a holiday and asked them to take him out for a walk. San Francisco's famous attractions!
San Francisco is surrounded by water on three sides and has beautiful scenery. Going out on a yacht is actually a good choice.
Just imagine, a private luxury yacht, young and beautiful white twin girls in bikinis, tsk tsk, it is endlessly daydreaming. Unfortunately, Zhou Qiao has no money now.
So I had no choice but to drive around in a classic car, and the Golden Gate Bridge was my first choice.
This is a cross-sea bridge connecting downtown San Francisco to Marin County in the north. It is located over the Golden Gate Strait and is a landmark building in San Francisco!
It is also one of the largest single-hole suspension bridges in the world. About 100,000 cars rumble across the bridge every day, making it extremely busy.
After walking around the Golden Gate Bridge, they went to Crooked Street, the most attractive street in San Francisco and known as the crookedest street in the world.
From Langba Street to Leven Street, there are eight sharp turns in a short block, and they are all downhill!
There is a slope of about 40 degrees, curved like a "Z" shape, and the car can only go down in one direction.
In order to prevent traffic accidents, the San Francisco authorities specially built many flower beds. There are hydrangeas in spring, roses in summer, and chrysanthemums in autumn. It is summer, and when Zhou Qiao and the others came, the streets were full of roses of various colors, filled with an extremely romantic atmosphere.
This is where the name "Jiuquhua Street" comes from!
Ava was driving, and Zhou Qiao and Elena were sitting in the back seat. Whenever there was a sharp turn, Elena screamed loudly, and involuntarily threw herself on Zhou Qiao, and secretly pinched him!
Zhou Qiao: "..." This girl is more courageous than me now!
Ava had no time to pay attention to the endoscope because she had to focus on driving. The two people behind her became more and more bold under the cover of the girl's screams.
Fortunately, this street is not long. After driving out, Elena's face was red and she was still unfinished. She couldn't help but said to her sister: "Ava, why don't we go back and do it again? It's so exciting!"
Ava said: "Okay, okay, you'll be the one to drive this time! I was so nervous just now that I almost bumped into it several times!"
Elena hesitated immediately. She didn't want Zhou Qiao and Ava to squeeze in, so she quickly said: "I suddenly remembered that there is a very interesting Fisherman's Wharf. Let's go there to eat sea crabs!"
"Wow, wow, it's been a long time since I've eaten sea crabs! However, the sea crabs at this time should not be plump enough!"
San Francisco is surrounded by water on three sides, and the nearby waters are rich in all kinds of seafood, including crabs, shrimps, abalone, calamari, sea urchins, salmon, mackerel, cod, etc. There are many types of seafood. The best time to taste seafood every year is actually from November to the following year. Between June and July and August it is slightly worse.
But in coastal cities, there is actually no shortage of seafood all year round.
Zhou Qiao has been a little weak these days. When eating seafood, he killed fifty oysters! Well, Elena specially ordered it for him.
Ava only loves abalone, but Elena likes to eat sea urchin and cod.
"When the clinic's business picks up, I'll treat you to king crabs!" Zhou Qiao estimated that by the end of the year, California king crabs would be plump, and by that time, the clinic would probably have made a lot of money and be a little more comfortable. .
"Yeah, you have to keep your word!" As the two girls spoke, they stretched out their palms. Zhou Qiao smiled slightly and high-fived them respectively.
He secretly thought that when he gets rich, he will not only eat king crabs, but also take you on vacations around the world, stay in the most luxurious hotels, eat the most expensive food, and enjoy the best life.
After finishing a large table of seafood and feeling full, the three of them went to the beach to play in the water.
Elena and Ava were running barefoot on the beach with sandals. The white girl's graceful figure, skin that was as crystal clear as snow, her sweet smile and her silver-bell-like laughter all made Zhou Qiao intoxicated. .
When it was getting late and the sun was setting on the beach, they had to go back.
Because, San Francisco is not safe at night.
There are many active gangs here. Recently, according to news reports, there seem to be three gangs, a Crips Gang, a Bloods Gang, and an 18th Street (M18). The three gangs often fight each other, and there are bloody fights almost every night late at night!
Compared with the declining mafia, these three gangs have more people, are more violent, are less orderly, and are further away from mainstream society.
