doctors, doctors

3 minutes. In 3 minutes my doctor in Taiwan solved the "puzzle" that a bunch of Cornell doctors tried for 3 months.
This famous doctor in Taiwan equipped with a sonogram machine right next to him in the exam room, and he personally did sonogram to every patient during the chekup; a procedure patients will need to negotiate with insurance companies and schedule the appointments by themselves in US.

Western medicine is practiced in a different way in Taiwan, due to insurances, due to people. But I think for all the patients everywhere, being treated and cured will always be the first priority.

How fortunate you are to access the best of the west and the east. Here in the US western medicine is now starting to adopt some of the best that the east has to offer. I wonder how much suffering could have been eliminated if it was done sooner? Pete
