Chapter 3917 [6] Known as High Quality and Low Price

(Dr. Tong:...)

Several students lined up the queue of medical patients, and each patient was ready to follow the doctor upstairs for treatment.

The clinic has a separate acupuncture treatment room on the second floor.

Just as Dr. Wen was about to move his legs, something unexpected happened.

"Doctor, doctor, please help me take care of my grandson."

An old man rushed to the clinic with his child in his arms, risking his life.

Seeing this, other patients' family members gave way to the old man and his children.

There must be family members in the crowd who have been parents of children, such as Sun Rongfang. Seeing this scene, they can't help but feel the same pain.

"What happened to the child?"

"Did you have a convulsion?"

"Don't let the child bite his tongue when he has a fever and convulsions. Use a towel to stuff the child's mouth."

Each and every one of them gave their opinions without waiting for the doctor to speak, and eagerly criticized the children's family members for what they did not do enough.

Those who came with the old man were the children's other family members, such as the children's grandmother and mother.

The child’s grandmother expressed regret on the spot and said, “I didn’t smoke at home.”

It sounds like the child was brought to the clinic for medical treatment by his parents when he found he couldn't wake up at home. There were no convulsions at the scene.

Not all children will have convulsions when they are unconscious.

Doctors certainly don't judge the severity of a child's condition based on whether the child has convulsions.

To put it bluntly, laymen just watch the excitement and have no understanding of professional diagnosis, but it is not surprising that these people like to make irresponsible remarks based on their own medical experience.

After hearing what the child's grandmother said, a group of people suddenly became suspicious.

"You haven't smoked. Why did you come to see a Chinese medicine doctor?"

Ordinary people know that the magic of traditional Chinese medicine has specific scenarios, such as which doctors are good at treating what.

The magical skills of traditional Chinese medicine shown in TV series and movies are all used when a patient has a convulsion. The magic needle of traditional Chinese medicine produces an immediate effect when the patient is convulsed. It can be seen that the magic of traditional Chinese medicine is to stop the patient from convulsing. The student from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital next to him heard this and rolled his eyes.

A layman only knows one but not the other. Yes, each specialist has his or her own technical expertise. However, acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine is not just for stopping cramps.

"Would it be better to send him to the Western Hospital?"

After everyone said this, the child's grandmother, child's mother and grandfather became anxious and said, "Our family used to come to the doctor here for medical treatment."

Don’t think that emergency patients will only go to the emergency department of the hospital. Some patients will only come to see a familiar doctor when they have an emergency.

The main reason is: no money.

The high cost of medical diagnosis and treatment makes people feel uneasy about seeing a doctor.

Take your child to the hospital, and if the Western medicine doctor says to do a CT MRI to determine the cause of the disease, the poor families will not be able to bear it.

Finding a doctor you are familiar with may help you save some money.

This is also the reason why traditional Chinese medicine is so popular among people in China. Compared with Western medicine, which often costs thousands for diagnosis and treatment, Chinese medicine seems to be relatively affordable.

The common people are hotly discussing the medical expenses of Western medicine. As a Western medicine doctor, Dr. Tong silently adjusts his sunglasses in the crowd.

It makes no sense to say that Western medicine doctors like to prescribe high-priced equipment for examination. If the cause of the patient's disease can be easily seen, the doctor will definitely not ask the patient to undergo examination. It will appear that the doctor's own technical level is very low.

Besides, TCM doctors now work in hospitals and still prescribe various examinations.

People outside don’t know that a lot of Western medicine knowledge is mixed into the textbooks of modern Chinese medicine schools. Students in Chinese medicine schools also have to learn basic anatomy and physiology and pathology in their first year. These are all Western medicine knowledge.

Therefore, this issue boils down to the technical level of the specific doctor, rather than the quality of traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
