It is difficult to see a doctor.
I have such an experience that
I have always wanted to write something about this and share my experience with you, Jiangxi Provincial People’s Hospital Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery Department Wu Guohui
I myself or my family members, sometimes inevitably have some minor health problems.
However, because it is not a disease of my specialty, in the end to which hospital to find which doctor to see.
I think it would be more beneficial to my health and less of a detour.
Like all patients, I don’t have a clue.
If you happen to have a good friend in that specialty, you can still consult and learn about it.
But I don’t have friends in every specialty, so I sometimes feel that it’s not easy to see a doctor.
If you don’t know anything, you may not feel so strongly about the difficulty of seeing a doctor.
I have seen some things in my profession.
I have seen some things in my specialty, but I have done more cleft lip and palate surgeries.
Some patients have learned about my experience with cleft lip and palate surgery through the Internet, referrals from past patients, and other means.
Some patients have contacted me directly, after looking for a lot of information about me, after looking for a wide range of friends to contact me, or after not having any other way to find other people.
Of course, they are treated directly by me, and most of them have no complaints.
However, there are some patients who are skeptical, thinking that it is better to see for themselves and come to Nanchang.
When they arrived at Nanchang, they looked for the People’s Hospital, and went to a city hospital instead of the Jiangxi Provincial People’s Hospital, where I was.
I found my hospital, see other doctors on duty, they also received and surgery.
The city-level hospital naturally does not have as much experience as I do here.
Even if they are my doctors, the surgical results vary a lot.
Some of them have found good doctors.
At the same time, I often have patients who call me after surgery at other hospitals or other doctors, regretting it and wanting me to help them again.
This is still the case with patients who have learned about my cleft lip and palate.
In fact, there is still a huge percentage of patients who don’t know about me and don’t know which doctor has experience in this disease, so it is impossible to choose a doctor or a hospital.
It’s really not easy to choose a hospital and a doctor.
I have seen several doctors in top hospitals in China who perform cleft lip and palate surgery.
The results are really not complimentary, I will upload a photo to see when I have a chance.
I think most of their patients will regret when they see the post-operative results of other patients.
If these doctors are not up to par, then there is nothing.
The fact is that these doctors are famous in their specialty, and the hospitals they belong to are the most famous hospitals in their specialty.
They have their own areas of expertise, and their patients are happy in their respective fields.
There are some interprofessional doctors who are even less reliable.
I was just answering a question about a patient who had a small lump and was overwhelmed by the answers of different doctors. In fact, whether the lump was a lipoma, a fibroid, a sebaceous cyst or something else, it was a simple matter to remove it for pathology, a very routine procedure, but the answers of different doctors were so varied that it was difficult for the patient to choose.
I have a cleft lip and palate patient, when the surgery was done locally, the deformity is very obvious, six or seven years old, the mother wants to let the child repair to closer to normal, they are working outside, so let grandpa bring Nanchang, in the largest general hospital, see surgery, see stomatology, see plastic surgery, each doctor said there is no way, and even some doctors said this is the case, do not need treatment, and can not be cured, so that grandpa and children It is very sad and decadent. In a state of almost total disappointment, he finally met a plastic surgeon and suggested that he come to see me. A typical cleft lip secondary deformity, the patient and the mother were very happy after the surgery, both because of the results and, more importantly, because they saw hope, not because there was no treatment, as other doctors said.
It is not that these doctors intentionally made mistakes, some doctors explained but the patient did not understand; some doctors really did not know.
Not only other doctors, even I have made mistakes.
In the past, a patient came to see me for armpit odor and asked me if there was any other way besides surgery.
I said decisively that there is only surgery, but now I know that I can still get some results with medication.
So, see more doctors before treatment, it will help patients to choose.
Of course, bring a family member who can understand the doctor’s explanation will be conducive to communication, is also helpful for patients to choose medical treatment
