Why do Japanese people go to Shanghai to see a doctor?

Two years ago, my Japanese partner flashed in Shanghai and was later diagnosed with severe lumbar disc herniation in the hospital. His work is in Shanghai. After several trips to Japan and Shanghai, Japanese doctors finally suggested that he be treated in Shanghai for the following reasons: 1) The hospital where my partner was treated in Shanghai has a good environment and can be included in the Japanese (enterprise) medical insurance system; 2) Lumbar disc herniation is a non-fatal disease, but it needs long-term conservative treatment and rehabilitation, and the surgical effect is not necessarily good; 3) The absolute incidence of similar diseases in China is much higher than that in Japan, and the level of domestic doctors may be higher than that of Japanese doctors, as long as they are treated seriously; My partner told me that Japanese doctors often communicate with the medical community in China. His Japanese attending doctor said objectively and frankly: "You (Japanese) always only see the lack of hardware in China Hospital, thinking that it is impossible to get the best medical care in a place like China; In fact, China Hospital is like a big market. There are too many patients and doctors are under great pressure to see a doctor. Doctors trained in this environment, as long as they are careful, have more exercise opportunities and high level, especially some private hospitals, not only have high medical skills, but also have better service attitude than their national hospitals. " Hospitals in China are really like a market. Those excellent experts have been facing patients with various personalities and diseases all over the country since they entered this industry when they were young. The complexity and diversity of diseases are unmatched by small regions and countries, and many people have no time to participate in international academic exchanges in the same industry, resulting in many international academic achievements that seem to be inventions and summaries of foreigners. In China, daily diagnosis and treatment is like the assembly line operation of slaughterhouse. I'm afraid even the worst doctor will develop a skill in a few years. (Of course, the service attitude and professional ethics of national hospitals are even worse. Due to well-known reasons, doctors in some hospitals have to take kickbacks from top to bottom, control the resources of the country, and seek benefits for themselves under the guise of "treating diseases and saving lives". This special situation is beyond the scope of discussion). This is very much like India. You know, many excellent surgeons in the world are from India, and they have more language advantages than doctors in China. Their level was cultivated in the "medical market" in India, but after making a fortune, they went overseas to make a lot of money. Just like selling watches, many overseas hospitals regard the treatment process as a quality product because there are not many patients themselves. The single ward, nurses and doctors are all caring and attentive, and the treatment plan is as detailed as a dictionary. Many things are the same as the coffee and sofa in the watch shop. Finally, the doctor's knife or skill is the key. Diver Guo Jingjing's retinal detachment is caused by diving occupational diseases, and other reasons such as external pressure, diabetes, high myopia and malnutrition. This disease is very common in China. Experts from several hospitals in Shanghai are experts in this field, and countless operations are performed every day. I remember that members of the Shanghai Shenhua team were injured and usually went to Belgium for treatment. This is because Belgium is a famous country in the world for surgical treatment of sports injuries. Belgium is at the core of the European Union, with a good playing atmosphere and many traumatic cases. Belgium's transparent and inclusive role in the EU determines that it can absorb excellent treatment experience from other countries in medical exchanges. So to put it bluntly, doctors and hospitals in Belgium are highly qualified and have certain objective persuasion. In fact, Shanghai is also excellent in dealing with sports injuries. However, the sports circles in China have always emphasized the champion principle of "fighting and forbearing", which has delayed the best treatment period of many excellent athletes, so the so-called special medical care can't function normally. This time, Guo Jingjing's boyfriend arranged for her to go to Hong Kong to treat retinal detachment, which was a good opportunity for him to show his friendship and loyalty, but in fact, the local treatment level in Hong Kong is not necessarily much higher than that in the Mainland. Perhaps for Guo Jingjing, it is more psychologically comforting to have a lover in Hong Kong. The medical insurance reform in China is really a headache because of the state system, over-concentration of resources and monopoly. Although we usually hate going to hospitals here, we have to admit that there are a considerable number of doctors in the few private hospitals in China, and their treatment level is still very high. Of course, the premise is to be serious.
