Pressure points and rewards

Devoted surgeon has his heart set on helping others despite the hardships and the misunderstanding of the patients he is trying to help

When talking about his more than 20 years working as a coronary artery and carotid artery surgeon, Liu Peng, 55, said that he felt sorry for his family as he seldom has any time to be with them due to his schedule of five or six operations a day.

However, he says the reward is the satisfaction he gets from the thanks of his patients.
