Do you know how to see a doctor in Guangzhou? Today we'll be giving you a step-by step guide about what to do when you come to a local Chinese hospital.
Guangzhou has a well-developed health care network, with general and specialized hospitals in every administrative district of the city.
Patients can also go to the outpatient clinic to register on their own. The procedure to see a doctor is:
Guangzhou Health Link app, hospitals' official websites, WeChat public account, telephone hotline 12320 etc.
If you are unfortunately bitten or scratched by animals (dogs, cats, rats, etc.), you should visit the nearest medical institution immediately to clean and treat the wounds, and then go to the Guangzhou Eighth People's Hospital for rabies vaccination, or a nearby designated rabies vaccination site for vaccination.
For children born or living in Guangzhou, their parents or guardians shall take them to the inoculation site in their place of residence (the health service center of the street (town)) to receive vaccination and obtain an inoculation certificate according to the prescribed immunization procedure and time. Children who havn't completed the required immunizations due to migration, long-term traveling or living in other places may continue the required vaccinations at the inoculation site in their new places of residence by presenting their inoculation certificates. Guardians shall keep the inoculation certificates for checking if the children are enrolled in daycare or school.
We wish everyone the best of health during your time here in Guangzhou!
