Chinese medicine: from rural hospitals to top three hospitals in Kyoto

"Master, drink some water."

Li Haofei hurriedly filled Chen Yang's tea cup with water.

After following Chen Yang for so many days, Li Haofei knows Chen Yang best. Once Chen Yang starts a consultation, he is almost busy from beginning to end, rarely going to the bathroom in the middle.

"You two comrades reporters must find it boring, right?" Chen Yang then noticed the two female reporters. He really forgot about it when he was busy just now.

"No, I find it very interesting."

Zhang Wanping said: "To be honest, this is the first time we find Chinese medicine so interesting."

"Yes." Gao Limei also said: "Normally, we always think that Chinese medicine is rather mysterious and what it says is unfounded."

There are really few high-level traditional Chinese medicine doctors in Jialin County. Gao Mingxuan is actually the ceiling among traditional Chinese medicine doctors in Jialin County.

To be honest, good Chinese medicine is actually very popular nowadays. Things are rare and expensive. It is precisely because there are few good Chinese medicine doctors that even those with a little level of skill can do well.

Even if you don't go into a hospital and open your own clinic, as long as you have the skills, you will definitely receive an endless stream of patients.

Just like today's infertility patients, they all ask around for good Chinese medicine doctors. If they hear a little bit of fame, they will try their luck.

Zhang Wanping and Gao Limei have never seen any high-level Chinese medicine doctors even though they have grown up. Part of their understanding of Chinese medicine comes from movies and TV shows, part of it comes from hearsay, and the rest is their own understanding.

Although there are now TCM hospitals all over the country, and almost many hospitals have TCM departments, in some provinces, there are actually not a few people who have never been exposed to TCM since childhood.

Some people may have taken Chinese patent medicines or even drank Chinese medicines, but they may not have met a qualified Chinese medicine doctor.

Chen Yang's current level is actually not that high, but it is definitely enough to deal with most common diseases. Even when faced with some more difficult diseases, if there are precedents to follow, Chen Yang can still deal with them.

Because Chen Yang's level is not too high, Chen Yang always goes step by step when diagnosing a disease.

During the diagnosis, Chen Yang explained to the patient and Li Haofei at the same time. In fact, this process was also a sorting out process for Chen Yang.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Wanping and Gao Limei can understand clearly.

For example, the conversation between Chen Yang and Jiang Dongfei just now was almost very straightforward. Jiang Dongfei himself was not well after taking medicine, and he understood something wrong. Chen Yang corrected him to tell him what was wrong, what was wrong, and the whole process, let alone Zhang Wanping and Zhang Wanping. Personally, even another person can understand it.

What they don’t understand is simply that people who have never studied Chinese medicine don’t quite understand the location of the disease, and they don’t quite understand the specific distinction between the middle burner, the upper burner and the lower burner.

"There are no patients at the moment, Dr. Chen, so let's do the interview here, right?"

Zhang Wanping looked at the time.

It was exactly eleven o'clock at this time, and Chen Yang had already finished seeing the morning's patients.

Nowadays, more and more patients call Chen Yang every day, but at [-] o'clock every morning, Chen Yang can almost see all the patients.

One of the biggest advantages of a relatively pure TCM diagnosis like Chen Yang's is that there is no need for return consultations. After the patient comes in, the examination, questioning, syndrome differentiation, and prescription are all done in one go. When the patient walks out of the consulting room, he does not need to go back to the clinic that day. Come in, that is, come back for a follow-up consultation a few days after taking the medicine.

There is no need for follow-up visits, which saves a lot of time.

Today's patients are increasingly disgusted with Western medicine in the current medical system, and one of the key reasons is that diagnosis is becoming more and more cumbersome.

Many people say that in the past, doctors, even Western medicine doctors, did not do any tests and could prescribe medicines after just one look. However, the current situation is that no matter what the disease is, when you enter the clinic, you first get the test sheet and then go to the clinic. Do a check-up and then come back to the doctor to prescribe medication.

Waiting in line for registration, waiting in line for follow-up visits, waiting in line for examination, and waiting in line to see a doctor. Sometimes, after a whole day of waiting, I queue up several times, but the medicine has not yet been taken into my mouth.

Unless it is an emergency call, otherwise, the test results may not be available, the medicine may not be prescribed, but the originally uncomfortable symptoms may have disappeared.

The patient couldn't help shouting: "If I delay just a little longer, I will be cured!"

"Okay, then here, Haofei, pour some water for the two reporters." Chen Yang said to Li Haofei with a smile.

Li Haofei took a disposable cup, poured water for Zhang Wanping and the two of them, and then started the formal interview.

"Dr. Chen, where did you graduate?"

"Provincial University of Traditional Chinese Medicine." Chen Yang said.

"Which hospital will you be in after graduation? I heard that you have not been in our county hospital for a long time." Zhang Wanping asked.

"After graduation, I will go to the health hospital in the township below." Chen Yang said.

"Township health center?" Gao Limei couldn't believe it.

"Yes, I have been working at the township health center below after graduation." Chen Yang nodded with a smile.

"Wow, Doctor Chen, you are so amazing. After graduation, you can still achieve such a high level in the township health hospital below." Gao Limei looked at Chen Yang with admiration.

Many people may not do the kind of thing where they start from the bottom and work their way up step by step, but they have some admiration for that kind of person.

If you can't do it yourself, but others can do it, you feel a little bit of admiration psychologically.

It's like some people. I don't like to be a soldier. I may not be able to be restrained, but it doesn't stop me from envying soldiers.

"Dr. Chen, can you tell us something about your experience at the township hospital below?" Zhang Wanping instantly felt that her visit was worth it.

At this moment, Zhang Wanping already had an idea in her mind. A medical student who graduated from the Provincial University of Traditional Chinese Medicine entered the township health center after graduation. Then, relying on her own efforts, step by step, she taught herself medical skills, improved herself, and graduated from the township health center. The county-level second-class hospital we visited.

And in a short period of time, he cured many patients with difficult and complicated diseases in county hospitals and became a star doctor in county hospitals.

Just thinking about Zhang Wanping feels so inspiring.

Such a report is more provocative and meaningful than a false report that has no material and is just based on the background of the interviewee.

In fact, Zhang Wanping's attitude was a bit perfunctory at first, because she didn't really like interviewing second-generation doctors with backgrounds. They obviously didn't have much skill, but they still boasted about it. When she was writing the article, Zhang Wanping felt disgusted. Don’t remove the pen.

After learning about Chen Yang, Zhang Wanping was already interested. Doctors like Chen Yang were the doctors she really wanted to interview and the doctors she was willing to write about.

Only such flesh-and-blood reports, real reports, are meaningful to Zhang Wanping. As a reporter, you should report some real things, instead of praising others all day long, or provoking conflicts or making gimmicks!
