Go to See a Doctor in Beijing Xiehe Hospital (協和醫院)

Yesterday was my first time to see a doctor in Xiehe (協和) Hospital, the most well-known hospital in Beijing. Unusually, I got up before 6 o'clock and then dashed to the bus stop because it is said that registration would be full after 7 o’clock. Fortunately, I succeeded in registration and left the hospital about 9:30.
Although the medical services in Taiwan must be better than those in China, for me who do not have the public health security, the cost to see a doctor in Taiwan becomes very expensive. Registration in China may be only 5RMB, while that in Taiwan may cost 150 NTD.

Except the terrible crowded patients, I had a good impression on Xiehe Hospital. Therefore, I went to apply a card issued by the hospital which can make the registration process become easier after second time.
