I completely understand the sensitivity of the topic to many Chinese people, especially those working in health care industry. I am maintaining this site and my arguments for the concern of many instead of a few, the best interest of everyone instead of someone, and the seek of truth instead of manipulation of numbers. I have no intention to offend people, but there is no way to avoid it if I want to pursue the topic, and I do want to pursue the topic.
I graduated from a Chinese Medical School. I acquired a Master of Surgery Degree in China and subsequently worked as a surgeon. Realizing how disastrous the health management system in China was to the practice of medicine, I decided to study health care management, in another country—U.S.A. I had obtained a master degree in health administration and one in business administration. I had also obtained a Ph.D. in health management and policy. I have always been preparing to go back to China and make some difference if possible. But because of personal and family reasons my trip back to China was cancelled. I decided to start this project to relieve some of my guiltiness toward not going back to China as I have planned for a long time.
我毕业于一所中国的医学院，其后取得了外科学硕士学位，成为中国的一名外科医生。在工作期间，意识到中国卫生系统不能让医生成功地为患者服务，我决定改修卫生管理，希望有一天可以改变现状。我来到美国，先后取得了卫生管理与工商管理的硕士学位，也取得了卫生管理与政策的博士学位。当我决定要回国为曾经的梦想努力时，来自个人与家庭的考量让我暂时不能成行。出于对临时改变决定的歉疚，我决定撰写一系列文章来探讨我对中国医疗体系的看法。
