Why is it said that "a history of Concordia is half a history of Chinese medicine"?

When it comes to hospitals, people can't help but think of Concordia Hospital. The history of the hospital can be said to be long, Concordia has been through the war and finally it was founded by the son of the world's richest man, Rockefeller funded. Out of love for China, the Rockefeller Foundation was established not long ago and sent personnel to visit China. After three visits, it was decided to establish a hospital in China. After the establishment of Concord Hospital, many famous people such as political celebrities, writers and literary figures visited the hospital.

The history of the Concordia Hospital begins in 1862, when the British missionary Luo Wei Lin created the first hospital in Beijing specializing in Western medicine, then called Beijing Shi Hospital. He set up many departments and was a very complete medical system hospital. And he did not distinguish between high and low status, from government officials to beggars on the side of the road are his patients. Later, after the dire Wei Lin back to Britain, the hospital was relocated to the rice city street, because the new hospital in front of the left and right there are two more than twenty meters high flagpole, also known as the double flagpole hospital. Later after the war the hospital was burned down leaving only two tall flagpoles. Later, with the support of the government and the Church of England, the hospital decided to rebuild, and it was said that Cixi and Li Lianying donated a lot of silver at that time. After three visits to China, Rockefeller Jr. decided to buy all the land of the original Concordia Hospital and Yu Wang Fu to recreate the Peking Union Medical College Hospital.
