○唐华松(一排右三)今年3月1日入选美国国家医学荣誉学会会员,成为这一批会员里唯一一位华裔学者。Tang Huasong (third from the right, first row )was selected as a member of National Medical Science Honor Society on March 1, 2016. He is the only ethnic Chinese member.
曾经有部风靡影视界的美剧《实习医生格蕾(Grey's Anatomy)》,深受观众喜爱。这部剧讲述了一群刚毕业的医学院学生在西雅图圣恩医院(Seattle Grace Hospital)进行外科实习并成为真正的医生的故事。不少观众看后都曾感叹,想在美国当医生,真的不容易。然而,一个山东籍的小伙子却做到了。
他就是唐华松。
2000年4月,年仅10岁的唐华松随父母到英国南安普顿市生活。在那里,他接受了小学高年级和初中阶段的教育。2003年8月又因父母工作变动,来到美国,随后一直在美国学习、生活。今年的5月13日,唐华松在美国天普大学(费城)(TempleUniversity,Philadelphia)医学院临床医学专业毕业,取得医学博士学位。多年来的刻苦学习和实践,使得他在成为真正的医生的路上越走越稳。
○唐华松的父母参加他今年5月份的毕业典礼。他的成长离不开家庭的熏陶和支持。Dr. Tang Huasong’s parents attended his graduation ceremony in May. The influence and support from his family is also an important link on his road of growth.
○唐华松将在霍普金斯医院从事血管介入专业领域的研究,一步一步地实现他的“美国医生梦”。Dr. Tang Huasong will engage in the research on vascular intervention in Johns Hopkins Hospital, gradually realizing his “doctor dream in the US”.
唐华松的祖父母、外祖父母和母亲都曾是医生,成长在医学世家的他,有得天独厚的优势和天赋。受家庭熏陶,年幼的他也对医学产生了浓厚的兴趣。而使他坚定学医信念并立志做一名手到病除的优秀医生的,却是因为一次特殊的经历。
大学毕业前夜,唐华松的爷爷从大洋彼岸打来电话,要他尽可能快地赶回老家见奶奶一面。心中十分挂念奶奶安危的他当即决定不参加毕业典礼,立刻动身乘坐时间最近的一班飞机回国。辗转56个小时,他终于赶到泰安老家,在泰安市中心医院急诊科重症监护室里见到了奶奶。握着奶奶的手,唐华松泪如雨下,多么希望医护人员能把自己亲爱的奶奶从死神手里拉回来。得益于医生精湛的医术,奶奶被救了过来。从奶奶醒来的那一刻起,唐华松对于自己未来的医学事业又多了一份笃定。
想成为一名真正的医生并不是一件简单的事,尤其是在医疗水平较高的美国。美国医生的责任心强,勇于担当,乐于奉献,很多医生以医院为家,每周在医院工作80个小时是常态。因而,住院医师中单身者居多,他们把全身心都投入到工作中。美国针对住院医师的培训极为严格和规范,注重医患之间的沟通。“眼前这位素不相识的人就是最关心我,最了解我,最值得我信赖的医生。”因此,患者很快就能对医生产生信赖。这就是唐华松要走的路。
去年10月至今年1月,在一系列住院医师面试期间,唐华松接到了包括霍普金斯医院、哈佛大学麻省总医院和耶鲁大学纽黑文医院等多家一流医院的面试邀请。今年上半年,他得到了霍普金斯医院的住院医师录用通知,而该院在过去的25年里有23次被评为全美综合排名第一。接下来,唐华松将在霍普金斯医院从事血管介入专业领域的研究,他的“美国医生梦”显然在徐徐开启。
