In today’s China, both eastern and western medical philosophies and practices exist relatively harmoniously. Patients with minor, usually self limited problems are treated initially with a seven day course of seven liquid herbal preparations taken each day. If symptoms subside, usually treatment is discontinued. If improved but not resolved, formula may be modified. If worse, regimen can be changed and/or referral to specialists arranged. There are hospitals that practice purely eastern or only western medicine. But it is becoming more frequent to find hospitals that integrate both disciplines. Chronic conditions, like cancer, tend to be treated with western techniques, with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) used in a supportive or complementary role.
An american MD's take on healthcare in China, just one excerpt. What intrested me was the references to western vs traditional and how he suggests the two seem to be used together more and more frequently. I believe MDCE past PR's was suggesting they would be utilizing both?
There is another link in article to another one at WSJ online that may be of interest.
