The surgery just now was primarily performed by Director Xue, and she was probably the most exhausted one among everyone.
She also wants to take advantage of her youth to accumulate a wealth of surgical experience in preparation for promotion to Level 2 and Level 1 Director roles.
It must be explained here that the three levels of directors, Level 3, Level 2, and Level 1, are positional ranks established by top-tier hospitals like Tu Ya, not professional titles. There are only four types of professional medical titles: Resident Doctor, Attending Physician, Associate Chief Physician, and Chief Physician.
The directors actually value these positional ranks even more.
Because they are internally assessed, theoretically, they carry a higher gold standard.
Why is an Attending Physician's status far inferior to that of an Associate Chief Physician?
