As a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor in southern Zhejiang, Chen Hua’s fame mainly stems from three aspects: first, his medical skills to cure diseases; second, his benevolent heart for patients; third, his dream of establishing a poverty alleviation hospital. .
? Pulse diagnosis and medical skills to cure diseases at your fingertips
Chen Hua was born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine in Xianju County, Zhejiang Province. His ancestors have been practicing medicine for generations. His uncle is a famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Jinhua area. His father is proficient in pulse diagnosis and medicine. He once served as a health doctor for a big shot in the Republic of China. The family has thousands of medical books, most of which are single copies, and more than 500 medical books are preserved. Notes and secret recipes of traditional Chinese medicine, including medical records of the leaders of the Republic of China at that time.
When Chen Hua was 14 years old, he began to follow his uncle and father to the mountains to collect medicine, treat diseases and save people. His father often locked him in a dark room and taught him to practice pulse diagnosis on cotton threads. Chen Hua was extremely talented in medicine and was diligent and studious. When his uncle and father saw that he was devoted to medicine, they imparted to him the spirit of traditional Chinese medicine passed down from their ancestors without reservation. After more than ten years of painstaking research, Chen Hua has made major breakthroughs in the treatment of blood diseases, liver diseases, hypertension, diabetes, tumors, brain atrophy and other difficult and complicated diseases. Especially in the field of pulse diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine, he uses the essence passed down from his ancestors to He created medical miracles, and his pulse diagnosis skills were praised by many patients and medical experts as "curing diseases at your fingertips, a unique skill in China."

The traditional medical ethics of a family of benevolent doctors
"Doctors always have the heart of a parent, and the way of medicine must be the art of benevolence and love." This is what Chen Hua often said to him after his uncle and father taught him medical skills after he started studying medicine. Chen Hua’s parents not only said this, but also did it. As early as the era of material scarcity, the folks in the village were very poor. Chen Hua's father often treated poor patients free of charge. People around him called the Chen family a "family of benevolent doctors" who helped the poor. This was in the heart of young Chen Hua. Left a deep memory.
? In 1995, in order to facilitate patients' medical treatment, Chen Hua came to Jinyun County, Lishui City, which has developed transportation, and opened a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. Many of his patients came to him because they were terminally ill. Most of them came because their families were poor and could not afford the hospital's high medical expenses. Chen Hua understood the thoughts of the poor very well. He upheld the "benevolent medicine" of his ancestors. Based on the traditional medical ethics of "Aristocratic Family", we insist on providing free diagnosis and treatment, sending doctors and medicines to patients from poor families, and do our best to solve the problems of the patients' families. In the medical records of his clinic, there is a box of special medical records. There is no stamp of the clinic on the medical records, because these are the medical records that he treated for free for patients with financial difficulties. In addition, Chen Hua also used the China Association for Poverty Alleviation to deliver medical care and medicine to many patients across the country. Not only was there no charge for the medicinal materials sent out, but the postage was charged.
Chen Hua has been practicing medicine for forty years and has reduced or completely reduced medical expenses for tens of thousands of patients, amounting to tens of millions of yuan. The banners and letters of thanks that have poured in from all over the country record touching stories.
Miaoshou Renyi’s dream of poverty alleviation
Chen Hua said that his poverty alleviation starts with treating diseases. Over the decades of practicing medicine, what he has seen most are the most painful diseases and the most embarrassing poverty in life. Many villagers in the mountains cannot afford medical expenses. The patients' desire for life always shakes his heart. Therefore, as early as more than ten years ago, Chen Hua had the dream of establishing a poverty alleviation hospital, and positioned the hospital as a non-profit hospital, mainly for low-income groups, with medical expenses reduced by at least 15%-30%. Free treatment is provided for some emergencies or for patients whose families are poor and cannot afford medical treatment.
Since there is no precedent for approving a poverty alleviation hospital, at the beginning of the application, departments at all levels had doubts about whether Chen Hua could build such a large-scale hospital. However, when Chen Hua approached the relevant departments again and again and stated his idea of ??establishing Lishui Changzheng Hospital + China Poverty Alleviation Hospital with "two brands, one team", everyone was moved and agreed that Chen Hua's idea was very good. It not only fills a gap in the medical field, but is also a very useful exploration for the national medical poverty alleviation cause.
With the strong support of relevant departments, Chen Hua’s Lishui Changzheng Hospital project establishment, application, preparation and other work were carried out smoothly.
October 30, 2009 was a memorable day for Chen Hua. After 7 years of hard work, he finally got his long-cherished wish, and the Lishui Changzheng Hospital broke ground. The hospital is located in Qili Township, Jinyun County, with convenient transportation. It covers a total area of ??50 acres and has emergency departments, internal medicine, hematology, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, oncology and an inpatient department with 500 beds. At the groundbreaking ceremony, leaders from relevant provincial, city and county departments were present to support the grand ceremony. The construction of Lishui Changzheng Hospital has evolved from Chen Hua’s personal dream to a common vision for departments at all levels to carry out medical poverty alleviation.
During the construction of the hospital's infrastructure, Chen Hua also carefully made an overall plan for the hospital's development blueprint. He positioned the hospital as a non-profit hospital, mainly for low-income groups, and planned to reduce medical expenses by at least 15% - 30%, and for some emergencies or patients whose families are poor and cannot afford medical treatment, free treatment will be provided.
On July 1, 2011, the China Association for Poverty Alleviation passed a survey and officially issued a document agreeing to list Lishui Changzheng Hospital as a Chinese poverty alleviation hospital; on October 9, 2011, the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office sent a letter to Zhejiang Provincial Poverty Alleviation Hospital The Office approved Lishui Changzheng Hospital as the first poverty alleviation hospital in the country, and will provide free medical equipment of more than 90 million yuan after the hospital is completed.
But what Chen Hua never expected was that this beautiful blueprint that benefited the country and the people would go through twists and turns during the construction process.
Facing a series of blows, Chen Hua always remained silent because he knew that facts speak louder than words, good intentions will be rewarded, and the truth will eventually clear his name. As reporters from many mainstream media conducted in-depth interviews, they made objective and fair reports on Chen Hua.
After the Lishui Changzheng Hospital construction project was suspended, Chen Hua continued medical research while running around to solve project quality problems. The "Pathogenesis Characteristics and Dialectical Treatment of Thrombocytopenic Purpura" he wrote was selected as an outstanding paper in the "Treasury of Contemporary Chinese Thought" and found another key to the research and treatment of blood diseases; the paper he wrote "Viral "Dialectical Treatment and Experience of Hepatitis and Acute Jaundice Hepatitis" was awarded the first prize for outstanding academic papers at the 2nd Traditional Chinese Medicine Development Forum; the "Lingzhi Shouwu Capsules" he developed were approved by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention Virus Tested by the Institute of Science and Technology, it has significant effects on the prevention and control of diabetes, fatty liver, tumors, hypertension, and kidney disease; the article "Clinical Report on 300 Cases of Shouwu Ganoderma Diabetes" written by him was featured in the "Third Hundred Medical Scientists Summit" Outstanding Won the first prize for outstanding academic achievements in the paper selection activity.
What is particularly worth mentioning is that in recent years, governments and medical institutions in Hangzhou, Jinhua, Xianju and other places have invited him to establish hospitals, but he politely declined them all. Because deep in his heart, the land in Qili Township, Jinyun County, is his hope, and building a poverty alleviation hospital is his deep-seated dream. He wrote this passage in his diary: "It is my career to run a good poverty alleviation hospital. It is my purpose to help the poor through medicine. It is my wish to overcome diseases. It is my duty as a doctor to relieve pain and make patients healthy and healthy." It is my lofty pursuit for everyone to strive for a well-off society.”
It is reported that the Counselor’s Office of the Zhejiang Provincial People’s Government has conducted an investigation into the suspension of the China Poverty Alleviation Hospital, a key provincial project. The investigation report pointed out: "The construction of China's poverty alleviation hospital is the support of the relevant departments of the State Council to our province and the underdeveloped areas of Lishui. Nearly 100 million yuan has been invested. No matter what, it must continue to be launched." This research report received great attention from leaders at all levels and gave clear instructions.
