"My lips are so hot that I want to drink tea to clear the heat...", "Will it make it difficult for me to get pregnant because of the 'cold bottom'? I want to ask a Chinese medicine practitioner to adjust it!" A friend around me asked me to introduce a familiar Chinese medicine doctor I will always warmly remind them about the body - Chinese medicine is not only for health care, but also very effective in treatment; Chinese medicine is not only good at "treatment of pre-existing diseases", but also good at "treatment of existing diseases".

The SAR Government has been committed to promoting the development of Chinese medicine in Hong Kong. Through the Hospital Authority (HA), it has set up a Chinese medicine clinic cum teaching and research center (Chinese medicine clinic) in each of the 18 districts of Hong Kong. The development of Chinese medicine based on "evidence-based medicine".

The TCM clinics in the 18 districts are operated by the Hospital Authority, NGOs and local universities with undergraduate degree programmes in TCM in a tripartite partnership. They provide government-funded TCM services at the district level, including outpatient medicine and acupuncture. Some clinics offer more Provides orthopedic massage services.

Apart from government subsidised services, Chinese medicine clinics also provide non-government subsidised services for patients to choose from.

The safety of patients has always been our top priority. To ensure the quality and safety of Chinese medicines, the HA has formulated a rigorous monitoring mechanism for Chinese medicines for Chinese medicine clinics, including regular random inspections of Chinese medicines products, which are carried out by accredited laboratories or local academic institutions Testing to ensure that the quality and safety of traditional Chinese medicines used in clinics meet standards.

TCM practitioners at all levels of TCM clinics also continue to participate in different clinical trainings, including further studies in well-known top-three TCM hospitals in the mainland, such as Guangdong Provincial Hospital of TCM, Xiyuan Hospital of Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of TCM, etc. to further enhance their clinical skills , to provide citizens with a higher level of traditional Chinese medicine services.

In addition, Chinese medicine clinics in 18 districts joined the electronic health record sharing system platform "Medical Health Link" as the first batch of Chinese medicine service providers to establish a more comprehensive health record for the public and support them to obtain more timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment; Last year, the Bureau also developed the "18 District Chinese Medicine Clinics" mobile application, which provides channels other than telephone calls to facilitate the public to make appointments for government-subsidized Chinese medicine outpatient services.

As long as you have registered for consultation at any Chinese medicine clinic, you can use the app to make an appointment for the consultation session of the government-subsidized Chinese medicine clinic (incidental disease) on the same day or the next working day.

The public can also access Chinese medicine clinics and Chinese medicine information, real-time dispensing status and manage consultation appointment arrangements through the app.

I often encourage friends around me to download the "18 District TCM Clinic" app, which not only manages personal health, but also facilitates appointment of TCM services for family members and the elderly.

The "18 District Chinese Medicine Clinic" App is available in both Chinese and English, and supports mobile devices with iOS 11.0 and Android 5.0 or above installed.

Citizens can download it for free through the "Apple App Store", "Google Play" and "HUAWEI AppGallery".

The TCM teams of TCM clinics in the 18 districts have been providing professional TCM diagnosis and treatment services to Hong Kong citizens in the past. In recent years, citizens have used government-subsidized outpatient services to experience the advantages and effectiveness of TCM treatment. The safety of Chinese medicine has increased the public's confidence in Chinese medicine services.

Many patients took the initiative to seek medical treatment at the TCM clinics in the 18 districts. Among them, there were many young people, and some parents brought their children to seek medical treatment.

The public's demand for Chinese medicine services continues to rise, which also shows that the acceptance of Chinese medicine treatment is increasing day by day.

Looking forward to the future, we and the 18 District Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic team will continue to work hard to protect the health of the public.

"Hong Kong 01" "01 Clinic", in cooperation with the Hospital Authority, publishes a column "Garden Tour" written by medical staff every Wednesday.

Apricot Forest.



"Xinglin" comes from the story of Dong Feng, a famous doctor in the Three Kingdoms period. Later generations praised medical care as "Xinglin". Five people from Xinglin from the Hospital Authority led the garden to visit Xinglin Grand View Garden. A little bit of reason.
