"I don't charge a penny for my treatment," said a gray-haired old doctor to his patient!
"Doctor Qin, let's collect some money, you are retired, we don't want to go if we don't collect money," the patient said eagerly!
"I have a retirement salary, enough money to spend, you are all in difficulty, I don't need to take any more money from you," the old doctor said lightly!
In the living room of an old house, the light in the room was dim, and it was extremely cold and damp in winter! An old man with frostbite on his hands, after consulting the patient, was struggling to meticulously write a medical record!
This old doctor is Qin Juntian, the former president of Jiangsu Wujiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine! He is a well-known miracle doctor, a celebrity on the list of "Top Ten Medical Ethics Pacesetters in Jiangsu Province" and "China's Good People List"!
He is also the "pig-headed dean" in the eyes of many colleagues, just because he is the dean: he will not collect money, will not prescribe big prescriptions, and will not accept red envelopes!
Qin Juntian was born in 1934 in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, his father is a famous local traditional Chinese medicine Qin Dongyuan, with superb medical skills, and is the founder of Wujiang Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Qin Juntian has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he learned a lot of medical knowledge from his father!
In addition, his father's noble medical ethics had a tremendous impact on him! The patients he encountered in financial difficulties were all treated for free, and even paid for the patients' medicines out of his own pocket! These were all firmly remembered by Qin Juntian!
When he was 14 years old, Qin Juntian went to the clinic for the first time, and it only took four days to make the seriously ill patients better, and he began to officially practice medicine!
Later, Qin Juntian entered Wujiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where he not only studied traditional Chinese medicine technology, but also learned Xi knowledge of Western medicine, integrating Chinese and Western medicine, and greatly improving his medical skills!
In his spare time, he also asked colleagues in other departments for teaching and Xi, and he was very proficient in each specialty, and later, he became a veritable general practitioner!
With his excellent medical skills, he later became the director of Wujiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. But he did not retreat into the background because of this, but is still working the front line of diagnosis and treatment!
There are many unspoken rules in the medical industry, and everyone who understands them understands them! And Mr. Qin also has his own "unspoken rules", that is: If you can prescribe traditional Chinese medicine, you should not prescribe Western medicine! If you can do no examination, try not to prescribe a checklist! The cost of each prescription should be controlled within 100 yuan as much as possible!
He also took the lead in resisting accepting red envelopes from patients throughout the hospital, resisting doctors arbitrarily prescribing large prescriptions to patients, and resisting prescribing expensive and unnecessary checklists to patients.
He was particularly disgusted with having interests with medical representatives, and all the representatives of pharmaceutical companies who entered this hospital had a nose of dust from Old Man Qin!
His practices are very unusual in the entire medical industry, so they have aroused the dissatisfaction of the hospital staff, and everyone has ridiculed him as the "pig-headed dean" behind his back!
After these gossips reached his ears, he smiled indifferently and ignored them every time! In his heart, the interests of the patients are above all else, and as long as the patients can be cured with less money, all other personal honors and disgraces are not important!
During his work in the hospital, there was a long queue in his consultation room every day, and many people traveled thousands of miles to come to him for medical treatment!
In 1994, the 60-year-old old man Qin retired! He refused the exclusive house offered by the unit, and chose to return to the old courtyard left by his father to spend his old age in peace!
This house is old and dilapidated, in disrepair, cold in winter and hot in summer! But the old man didn't care, and after simple repairs and tidying up, he moved in!
Here is the shadow of a father, with his own childhood!
He plans to live here the life he has dreamed of for a long time, raising flowers and grass, and teasing his grandchildren!
However, for a person like him, such a wish is an extravagant hope after all!
A few days after he retired, many medical institutions learned the news, offered him an annual salary of one million, and invited him to go to the clinic to cooperate, but he refused!
After practicing medicine for decades, he has long seen through the unspoken rules and routines of these institutions, the wool is out of the sheep, and the high salary given to him by these institutions is to be made up from the patients, and he is disgusted with this practice of scraping oil on the bones of patients!
And the old patients in his past, who did everything possible to find out the address of his new home, begged him to continue to provide them with treatment!
Looking at these patients from afar, the old man couldn't bear it, and after discussing with his wife, he decided to change his living room into a consultation room and continue to see patients!
He has set a strange "unspoken rule", which is probably the only existence in China's medical circles! That is, "those who come will not refuse, and will not take a penny"!
We have seen a lot of veteran specialists who continue to shine after retirement, but some of them are very expensive to treat!
But Old Man Qin not only did not take the opportunity to increase his income, but also volunteered to work, which was very surprising and invisibly offended many peers!
From then on, his small courtyard was full of people every day, and patients from all over the country surrounded his living room at any time! When he was over the age of six, he got up at 6 o'clock in the morning and was busy until eight or nine o'clock in the evening! When there were many people, he didn't even have time to eat!
For more than 20 years, he has never rested a day, including days like the Spring Festival, when patients come to his door! There are even patients who knock on his door in the middle of the night, and he has no complaints! As long as the patient comes, he will do his best to diagnose and treat him!
Before his death, he recorded a total of 345 notebooks, each with 18 0 pages, and each patient had at least one page of medical records, providing free diagnosis and treatment services for more than 60,000 patients!
With his qualifications and medical skills, his registration fee is at least 50 yuan. For more than 20 years, the registration fee alone, Mr. Qin has lost 3 million in income!
In terms of other drug expenses, he has waived or undercharged countless amounts of money! If his drug expenses were calculated at market prices, he would have earned millions or even tens of millions of dollars less in more than 20 years!
And he and his wife live an extremely poor life, and the furniture and electrical appliances at home are all from twenty or thirty years ago. In order to save money, he did not add air conditioning and heating to the room, so much so that in winter, in order to facilitate the pulse of the patient, he insisted on not wearing gloves, and his hands were always full of frostbite!
At the same time, due to his years of sitting still, he suffered from a severe lumbar disc herniation, and his two thighs were thick and thin, making it very difficult for him to move! Every time he wanted to stand up, he had to rely on crutches!
Even so, he always thought about the patients! For some patients with special conditions, he even paid out of his own pocket to accompany them to major hospitals for examination and treatment, and provided consulting services and checks along the way!
In his home office, he does it to save money for his patients! He has only three tools: an old-fashioned thermometer, a blood pressure monitor, and a stethoscope!
There is no need to look at blood routines, no need to take films for CT, just rely on his amazing skills to diagnose and treat, and prescribe the cheapest and most cost-effective medicine.
For more than 20 years, he has cured many terminally ill patients who were abandoned by major hospitals! Saved many families on the verge of being broken, saved them high medical expenses, and prevented them from falling into poverty due to illness and returning to poverty due to illness!
There was once a college student who was diagnosed with leukemia, and the minimum treatment cost given by the hospital in a big city was 280,000 yuan, not including the cost of later treatment!
This made his already poor family suddenly fall into despair! When he was desperate, someone introduced him to try it out with the old man Qin Juntian, maybe there was hope!
After Old Man Qin learned about his condition, he waived his consultation fee and gave him the cheapest medicines, some of which were even lower than the cost price! After three years of treatment, he spent less than a fraction of the cost of a big hospital, and he was completely recovered! This is not only a medical miracle, but also a great love in the world!
His noble sentiments, in today's endless medical chaos, I don't know how many people blush and be ashamed!
On March 12, 2021, due to overwork and a lung infection caused by wrestling, Mr. Qin Juntian left the patients he cared about forever!
His death grieved his patients, who said that such a good man should live to be 200 years old!
Before his death, the old man Qin Juntian inscribed a couplet to his clinic: I hope that everyone is healthy, why don't I have less money! The simple and unpretentious ten words are the true portrayal of his life: hanging pots to help the world, and doctors are benevolent!
In the article "In Memory of Bethune", Chairman Mao praised Dr. Bethune as a noble person, a pure person, a moral person, a person who is free from low-level interests, and a person who is beneficial to the people.
Old man Qin Juntian's decades-long good deeds can also deserve such an evaluation!
