Using animal models for surgical training was actually the most effective method, but it just costs money. Dean Xia was willing to spend the money, so at Sanbo Hospital, practicing surgeries on pigs had become the norm.
The Animal Experiment building was originally only for the use of doctors from the Surgical Research Institute, but now another floor had been allocated for the use of surgeons from the entire Sanbo Hospital.
Such investment was not just about a few pigs, associated measures were the major expense: things like daily management and maintenance of the building, supervision of pig breeding, and various specialized equipment used for surgical training, all requiring significant financial commitment.
But Dean Xia was a generous person, willing to invest in order to enhance everyone's surgical skills; this amount of investment was nothing to him.
