How can I tell if a TCM practitioner is reliable?

How can I tell if a TCM practitioner is reliable?

Chinese medicine since ancient times, there is a level of high and low, it is because of the characteristics of Chinese medicine itself, leading to many impostors to take advantage of, thus leading to the Chinese medicine has been the so-called god doctor and quack doctor exists, god doctor is not God, but mastered a certain degree of knowledge of Chinese medicine, can cure the big disease has always been the characteristics of Chinese medicine, but how do you know that the Chinese medicine is the level of high and low, to determine whether the necessity of adherence to it?

First from the time and state of feeling the pulse. Feeling the pulse is the tradition of Chinese medicine, but also a touchstone to test the level of Chinese medicine. Generally speaking, the time to feel the pulse is not less than one minute for both hands, and the fingers must be correctly prevented, and the three parts of the inches off the feet must not be misplaced. And feel the pulse, must be fully concentrated, without distractions. Now many doctors dip the wrist that is, touching the pulse drinking tea, chatting, can be described as a high level.

This is the level of Chinese medicine from the level of treatment of colds. Colds have always been half of Chinese medicine, half external and half internal. Moreover, exogenous diseases are more complicated, often mixed with internal injuries, and there are many variations. Moreover, the use of medicine is a matter of urgency, and there is no room for impropriety. If a Chinese medicine practitioner can deal with a cold in two or three days, the level is sufficient, and can be said to be superior and trustworthy.

The above two points are ways to identify the standard of a Chinese medicine practitioner. We should not look at how the doctor talks about the sky, but to look at the number of drugs prescribed some people move twenty or thirty flavors, obviously is not very reliable. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine (HUNDI NEIJING) says that one should not prescribe more than thirteen flavors of medicine, and a doctor who prescribes more than thirteen flavors of medicine tends to be half truthful and half false. At the same time, we can not rely on the number of patients to determine the level of the doctor, which is also an unreliable indicator.

There is a saying that "the reputation of the people is not as good as that of the gold cups and silver cups". I think this saying is also very reliable in judging whether a Chinese medicine practitioner is reliable or not.

A few years ago, our county legend has a god doctor, there are a lot of people looking for him to see a doctor, I heard that his prescription is very special, each payment of a few drugs, every day to take the medicine time must be fixed, can not be late or early more than 5 minutes. I also went to his own clinic, waiting in line for a long time to the front, I saw him to the front of the patient's pulse when both hands grasping the patient's wrist, eyes closed, people like a cramp, the whole body leaning forward and backward shaking, and then like a pendulum as violently as the shivering head, the mouth recited, but could not hear what was said. I look at the way he diagnosed the disease, inwardly can not help but born a sense of loathing, and then did not go to let him take the pulse diagnosis, directly turned away.

I heard that this Chinese medicine practitioner graduated from a well-known Chinese medicine college and had also cured some people, so he pretended to be extraordinary and deliberately created a mysterious atmosphere in the course of consultation, so that the patients would think that he was a miracle doctor.

Five or six years have passed, and now no one mentions seeking medical attention from the Divine Physician.

Whether a Chinese medicine practitioner is reliable or not is not a matter of him being a student of a certain celebrity, or being received or honored by an important person, or having studied in a famous university, or even out of his or her own mouth, but rather, it is a matter of getting the recognition of the patients and their families in practice, of being devoted to the cause of Chinese medicine, of passing on and developing traditional culture, of respecting every life, and of being able to withstand the test of time and the experience of the world.

Thanks for the invite!

To look and know is called God, to hear and know is called holy, to ask and know is called work, to cut the pulse and know is called skillful, these are the four levels of Chinese medicine. Patients to determine the level of Chinese medicine practitioners mainly depends on his reputation in the people who have seen him how?

To determine whether a Chinese medicine practitioner is reliable, it is recommended to look at the following aspects: First, listen to the word of mouth. From the experience of people around you, you can judge the doctor's service attitude, medical ethics, efficacy and other information. As a reference for you to visit the doctor. Second, look at the source. Regardless of Chinese medicine clinic, hospital, generally speaking, the better the doctor's patients, especially Chinese medicine is more so. No efficacy patients have been to two times will no longer find you. Third, check the words and behavior. Reliable Chinese medicine will not boast, what cure all diseases. What to eat a few courses of treatment to cure hepatitis B, cure diabetes and so on. Fourth, pro experience. Reliable Chinese medicine practitioners generally look and smell, four diagnostic and reference, although some patients more or more experienced may see fast, but also comprehensive. Some look more carefully, more slowly. Of course, there are a small number of pulse diagnosis, basically only cut the pulse is an exception. Fifth, research prescription. The ancients called the three flavors of medicine within a small prescription, twelve flavors within a prescription, up to twelve flavors called generous. In addition to some serious illnesses, difficult diseases with a prescription oversized, basically in the twelve flavors or so. If the condition is not complex, a prescription of dozens of flavors, dozens of drugs are generally not reliable. Either the dialectical inaccuracies, the heart does not count, is to earn money. Six, heavy efficacy. Effective is the hard truth! Comprehensive view , see the doctor is for the efficacy, although some Chinese medicine temperament eccentric, some high price, but the effect is good. I think if the efficacy of good value. Is not it? You have a good attitude, and then will say, the patient ate for a long time did not feel, in addition to mental illness, what is the significance? If the efficacy is good, good medical ethics, that is a great doctor. Do you agree with my analysis?

1 Look: whether the consultation is detailed. If you watch him take 5 minutes a piece to see other patients, it is recommended that you turn around and leave.

2 Whether or not they find out why you have the disease. If you are only told how to treat it and not how you got it, you are not the doctor in charge.

3 only look at proprietary Chinese medicines, will not prescribe soups is not a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine.

Hi, I am a TCM doctor and I am very happy to accept your invitation to answer this question. I think there are a few main aspects to determine whether a TCM doctor is reliable or not:

I. Whether or not they have gone through professional Chinese medicine study, which includes normal university education or rigorous study with a teacher, formal clinical practice as well as their own study.

Second, whether they have legal medical qualifications (of course, there are TCM practitioners who have not obtained medical qualifications and are very good at what they do, but they are very few).

Third, whether it is truly patient-centered, to cure the disease and save lives as the guiding ideology. This aspect is generally not good to grasp, but we can go through other doctors or most of the patients who have sought treatment from the doctor to understand.

Fourth, whether the theoretical ideas of Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine treatment methods as the main treatment method, is also an important indicator to determine whether it is reliable.

The above is my personal understanding, if it is wrong, please help to correct it.

Netizens, spring breeze Shen Yun talked about, divination; from the I Ching (Zhou Yi), divination, divination. From Chinese medicine, 'Xuan silk pulse diagnosis', the vast majority of people think that myth, fiction. In actuality, 'silk' micro-movement, too hospitals are teachers, experienced. Or, divination divination, the heart has foreseen, have counted. Although, the I Ching (Zhou Yi) is the latter day gossip, but the book also contains the components of the innate gossip, depending on how you crack, understand. In fact, the use of divination, with the time to trigrams, or with the name of the trigrams, and even not see the patient, can be measured, diagnosed the patient's illness, condition, cause of the disease, you can use the right medicine.

It is extremely absurd to use the "reputation" of the masses to judge whether science or Chinese medicine is reliable. When Copernicus put forward the "heliocentric theory", the "reputation" was so bad that it was almost lit on the woodpile. If in the case of unknowingly using "duck tablets" to stop the pain of the disease effect is obvious, can win a very good "reputation", the problem is that this is tantamount to drinking hemlock to quench their thirst. Chinese medicine is reliable to see whether it can withstand the test of modern science, rather than the empty profound so-called convinced.

Judging whether a Chinese medicine practitioner is reliable or not is determined by two aspects: one is the efficacy of treatment and the other is medical ethics.

The efficacy of Chinese medicine comes from the practitioner's grasp of the basic theories of Chinese medicine and personal enlightenment. The medical skill of the Chinese medicine practitioner is often solid in basic theory, rich clinical experience, yin and yang, five elements, eight syllabus of dialectics skillfully used. Dialectics, can focus on the whole, but also focus on the local, can see the subtle knowledge, know the outside to identify the inside, the right medicine, careful prescription. A reliable Chinese medicine practitioner does not necessarily have to be out of doors, but rather, he or she will stay in the closet.

Good Chinese medicine practitioners also have high medical ethics. A truly learned Chinese medicine practitioner focuses on "saving lives and helping the sick", has only patients and diseases in his eyes, does not prescribe large amounts of money, does not overdo surgery, seeks truth from facts, and practises the spirit of humanitarianism, and the process of treatment often results in the "four-two-thousand-kilogram" effect.

After all, there are too few truly reliable Chinese medicine practitioners, so it is not uncommon to spend a little more money to get a little bit of healing.

How to judge whether a Chinese medicine practitioner is reliable, level of high and low, the depth of the root, that is, of course, the insiders look at the doorway, the outsiders see the fun, as a peer, first look at his prescription to facilitate the knowledge, it will be known, one whether a formal soup, whether there is a ruler and ministers and make the points, and secondly, whether the formula is refined and not chaotic, so that people see the prescription to know the disease; as a patient, regardless of the reliable, with the efficacy of the identification.
