Frequency of Treatment

[Guest guest]

Luke,

In Dongzhimen and Guanganmen Hospitals in Beijing, some (mostly older

patients) come daily, others 3 times a week, less than twice a week is very

rare.

A funny anecdote is, some patients told me: Eh! Last time there was a needle

here, I want it this time as well. I want some more needles. Or: Why don't

you also needle ...and ... - a bit like patients in the West asking for an

additional drug to be prescribed, since they already paid the money.
