    I took a trip to a Chinese Hospital! As hospitals here are really quite different to those in the UK I thought I would show you what they are really like. This time I went to the busiest hospital certainly in western China and perhaps in the whole of China.

    Chinese people remember the friendly foreigners helped them in the difficult years. I didn’t know this Canadian Dentist until seeing this video. But every single Chinese knows the other Canadian doctor Norman Bethune.

    Toby, it is very admirable that you made and published this excellent video for the world to see, especially in the age of massive mainstream media disinformation about China! Your video shows to the world that both the central and local Chinese government are competent and efficient, especially in the Healthcare field, compared to, for example the U.S., which are the total opposite! Great job, keep up the good work, and look forward to see more vids from you about living in China!

    Super specialist Doctors are highly respected anywhere in the world. You have to complete 5yrs MBBS degree, then 3yrs PG in special branch, then 6yrs PD super speciality DM/MCh. Extremely tough journey not to mention the selection tests and entrance tests. You gotta be very intelligent, smart, hardworking, fit, patient, composed, etc. You becomes 1 in millions type of person. Forget about lovelife, romance, entertainments, your life becomes dedicated to become doctor.

    the regional large hospital usually has top specialist doctors that people from all over the country to see them for. That's why it's crowded. For a regular minor problem, just visit your neighborhood hospital or clinic. They are usually not crowded. But I guess you came there for the special expensive medicine.

    • @TobyChina
      @TobyChina  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      Exactly right. For minor ailments you can just go to a local/smaller hospital.

      One of the most important is Chinese often go to hospital even small problems like bad stomach pain and fever etc , because it’s affordable and they trust doctors

    The Chinese medical system is efficient and necessary, considering the large population in China. In our country, medical care is almost free. The waiting times can be frustrating, but overall, it's less stressful and less of a hassle. Both systems have their merits for their own circumstances.

    I'm not 100% certain, but let me guess what the special medicine situation means. I think most of the medicine used in China are procured collectively by the central government. There might be some subsidies in the price. For rarely used medicines, there is probably no subsidy and the public hospitals won't stock them. On the other hand, I don't think "everyone in western China" come to this hospital. There must be thousands of hospitals there, but Huaxi must be serving a consulting role. When treatments require higher level of expertise, people have to travel outside their area for specialist attention.

    • @TobyChina
      @TobyChina  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Not everyone goes there of course, but it’s recognized as one of the best, so people do go there if they want higher level care or they haven’t been able to deal with their problem somewhere else
