“如果我有千條生命,必定每一條都要留給中國(guó)”。這是湘雅醫(yī)學(xué)院的創(chuàng)始人顏福慶對(duì)祖國(guó)的誓言。他是全亞洲第一個(gè)耶魯醫(yī)學(xué)博士。他拒絕美國(guó)的高薪,毅然絕然地回到戰(zhàn)火紛飛的祖國(guó),創(chuàng)立了湘雅醫(yī)學(xué)院,這里走出了中國(guó)最?yuàn)Z目的醫(yī)學(xué)人才,他們占領(lǐng)了中國(guó)醫(yī)學(xué)事業(yè)的半壁江山。如果顏福慶地下有知,中國(guó)現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該有更多顏福慶式的醫(yī)生。一個(gè)湘雅醫(yī)院可以救全中國(guó)嗎?它肯定不能,中國(guó)醫(yī)療的底層邏輯是發(fā)展基層醫(yī)療服務(wù)廣大人民,中國(guó)是要把二三線城市的三甲醫(yī)院發(fā)展起來成為與一線城市大三甲并肩的醫(yī)院。這就是二戰(zhàn)結(jié)束后德國(guó)醫(yī)院的成功之處,德國(guó)醫(yī)療的整體水平相差無幾,哪怕在一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)都有世界頂級(jí)的學(xué)科,老百姓不用跋山涉水到首都就可以解決所有的疾病,中國(guó)醫(yī)療的本質(zhì)是平民化的醫(yī)療。這是中國(guó)醫(yī)院的根本,一個(gè)國(guó)家科技發(fā)達(dá),醫(yī)學(xué)昌明,教育普及,人民安居樂業(yè),自由法制這才重要。這是生養(yǎng)我的故土,它讓我熱淚盈眶。
“Even if I have a thousand lives, I am ready to dedicate them all to my motherland”. This is the oath of Yan Fuqing, the founder of Xiangya Medical School, to our motherland. At Yale University, he was the first Asian to get a doctoral degree in medicine. He had declined the well-paid offer from the U.S., resolutely returned to the war-torn motherland, and founded Xiangya Medical School, which is the cradle of the most prestigious talents in healthcare. They are the mainstays of the healthcare in China. There should be more doctors like Yan Fuqing in China now. Can Xiangya Hospital serve the whole China with its own strength? Of course not. The point of healthcare in China is to develop the primary care and to serve the public. The strategy is to develop the Grade Three Class A hospitals in the smaller cities into hospitals that are comparable with the ones in first-tier cities. This is the key to success of healthcare in Germany. The overall medical quality in Germany is homogeneous. Even in a small town, there are world-class specialties. The patients can get appropriate treatments for all kinds of diseases without traveling a long way to the capital. The essence of healthcare in China is universal healthcare. This is the foundation and prerequisite of hospitals in China. For a country, the most important thing is to have advanced technology, well-developed medicine and popularized educationand that people live in peace and contentment, and that the society is free under a nomocracy. This is the motherland where I grow up, which makes my eyes always brimming with tears.
