20-year-old Xiao Xi (pseudonym) lives in Wuhan and went to study in the UK a year ago. A few months ago, she developed symptoms of upper respiratory tract infections such as nasal congestion, so she made an appointment with a local family doctor for consultation. Due to the long waiting time for queuing appointments, secretory otitis media has developed at the time of consultation. The family doctor will also make an appointment for a specialist, but it will take at least 3 months to see a doctor. Worried that his condition would further affect his study and life, Xiao Xi immediately took a leave to book a flight ticket to return to China, and made an appointment to register with the expert clinic of Professor Hu Yujuan of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery of Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital.
Professor Hu Yujuan's examination found that Xiaoxi's secretory otitis media has caused mild to moderate hearing impairment, and she was treated symptomatically for a week according to the severity of the disease. She had basically recovered when she went to see the doctor the day before yesterday, so as to avoid recurrence, she brought some external medicine before returning to the UK.

Only on July 1st, the number of registered outpatient visits in the three major hospitals of the hospital reached 19,000, setting a new historical record. On July 8, it reached a new high and registered outpatients again.
The volume increased by 2.43% from last Monday. Dermatology, orthopedics, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, pediatrics, stomatology, etc. have become "hot".
It is recommended to avoid the peak of the first three days of the week How to deal with the peak of summer consultations? The relevant person in charge of the outpatient office of the hospital said that although the number of patients continued to increase, there was no "long queue" at the window, and various departments took early measures to respond, such as temporarily adding numbers and extending the time for consultations. Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital reminded that every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are the peak visits, and patients can choose to see the doctor from Thursday to Sunday.
