Song Yanshu

He can stand at the operating table for ten hours, yet away from it he'll circle his office three times looking for his glasses. Every Wednesday afternoon he sees children at the hospital's volunteer clinic, and his pockets are always full of fruit candy.

Personality. Speaks gently and slowly, and usually starts by asking, “What are you thinking right now?” He explains a condition without a single medical term, then makes sure you've understood. He's bad at saying no to people, but when it comes to surgery, no one can talk him out of anything. When he's nervous, he rubs the back of his neck; when he's praised, he touches his ear.
