Lu Feng was puzzled seeing Xie Ming's expressions. He understood from her expressions that she wanted to keep it a secret that she is the one who treated her aunt.
" Ah, the thing is... Ahem..." he was at a loss for words. Because he had no idea how to explain this thing to Su Jin even though she has no degree or any proper medical education but she knows about it very well.
It's difficult for him to make Su Jin believe that Xie Ming is not a strange person and she has capabilities and was not just talking nonsense.
" I don't have any degree nor I work at a hospital but I know Chinese traditional medicine. And according to my knowledge in traditional medicine, I can say that the boy has autism." Xie Ming said with a straight face.
" Oh really. Then you must have studied in Chinese medicine as your major right? " Su Jin asked Xie Ming about her qualifications.
Su Jin is not the kind of person who looks down on Chinese medicine. Even her grandfather is a doctor of Chinese medicine.
So she has faith in Chinese medicine as well. She knows that before practicing Chinese medicine, one should have studied Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture.
Her interest piqued hearing that Xie Ming knows Chinese medicine.
Xie Ming pursed her lips and remembered that in this world, you need to study about Chinese medicine in college as well.
In her world, she learned the Chinese medicine from her father and treated many villagers and soldiers with her father.
Even though she didn't have any degree but no one ever doubted her capabilities even for once.
In this place, people believe more in a piece of paper rather than a person's capabilities.
" Ms. Su Jin, I didn't study Chinese medicine as a major nor I have a degree but I can guarantee you that my capabilities are better than all the oriental doctors out there." she sighed.
She has no way to make her believe in her words because she doesn't have a degree but she has skills.
" And it's up to you to believe my words or not because I don't have any degree to prove my words. I just hope you can check on the boy and help him cure it. That's it."
Xie Ming feels upset because in this world she has to explain her qualities to everyone.
But it's good that they don't know. Because she was afraid that if others found out that she used acupuncture on the pregnant woman when she doesn't have any degree, they would start criticizing her.
This world has different rules and laws in her time. It will be considered a crime if others found out that she treated a patient without any degree.
She knows that she has experience and skills.
But how can she make them believe that she is not inexperienced? She just doesn't have the so-called degree in this field that they want.
Just as she had expected, Lu Feng was also astounded hearing Xie Ming's words. She didn't learn it from a verified source and yet she has such great capabilities.
He was shocked rather than surprised. Because he knew what she did and saved his aunt which was truly impressive and after seeing her video many doctors wanted to meet her.
But now he not only got to meet her but also found out that she has not studied medicine as her major.
She is truly a genius.
" Hah. Mrs. Jin, I think you're taking it as a joke. You want me to check on a boy just because you said so? Because you think that he is autistic? Like really?" Su Jin snorted as she looked at Xie Ming.
She has thought that she has studied medicine even though she is not a doctor, she must be a nurse or something. But to her surprise, she has no medical degree or studied medicine.
" I am a pediatric neurologist. More than that, I am very successful in my field. I am not someone who will treat someone just because you said so. If you said that earth is collapsing tomorrow, should I believe that? " she snorted as she looked at Xie Ming with ridicule in her eyes.
Lu Feng was surprised when he heard Su Jin's words. He didn't expect her to behave this way.
.
" Doctor Su Jin, that's not the point here. We..."
He wanted to tell her that Xie Ming is not the type she was thinking but Su Jin interrupted her.
" Doctor Lu Feng, I don't know what happened to you that you're believing this woman's words. I heard what just happened in the lobby. You want me to check on the boy just because she said so? Just to prove that this woman is wrong? "
" Even that boy's father is denying that his son is fine, so why is she insisting on it? And why should I waste my time to check on a boy who is fine? Just to prove this woman wrong? I am sorry Doctor Lu, I don't have much free time on my hand."
Su Jin interrupted Lu Feng and was about to stand up when she stopped hearing Xie Ming's words.
" I pity your patients Doctor Su, that they got such a doctor who feels that she is wasting her time by checking on her patients." Xie Ming snorted as she folded her arms in front of her chest.
Lu Feng was surprised when he heard Xie Ming's remarks. By now, he was thinking that Xie Ming is very kind-hearted but surprisingly her remarks could be very cruel.
He pursed his lips when he saw Su Jin's expressions upon hearing Xie Ming's words.
He knows that Su Jin is very good at diagnosing her patients and a very competent doctor and till now no one told her that they pity her patients.
Xie Ming was directly ridiculing her and her work ethics by saying this.
....
" What did you say?" Su Jin turned around and glared at Xie Ming as she gritted her teeth.
" Ms. Su Jin, you said that you don't want to check on that boy right? But have you ever looked at the boy, that you're saying that he is fine? Have you seen him walking that you're saying he is fine? Have you seen him getting panicked when he saw people raising their voices or shouting? "
" Have you seen the boy that he can't even make eye contact with anyone and how his hands tremble? "
Su Jin was caught off guard when she heard Xie Ming mentioning all the major problems when spotting autistic children.
There are no definite medical tests like blood tests or so to check if a child has autism or not. That's why doctors generally check the developmental history and behavior of the child.
Because of having no medical test, autism is very difficult to diagnose at initial stages. And it doesn't have any definite treatment to cure this disease.
Doctors can only advise to take therapies and use meditation as a medium to not let their condition elevate.
Though it gets difficult to spot these things at the initial stage, only those who are experts in the field can catch the difference.
Su Jin was dumbfounded when Xie Ming mentioned all the main behavioral points that were evaluated for their diagnosis one by one.
