00:35 Guest introduction
01:37 First, what is standardized residency training (SRT)? How tiring is SRT?
03:10 A day-by-day account of SRT
07:18 If it’s so tiring, why do SRT? — Getting the SRT certification is important, learning Western medicine is important, seeing the world is important
09:53 SRT is very reasonable for Western medicine students, but why should Chinese medicine students do SRT as well? Starting from a clinical case, the importance of SRT for a clinical physician (whether Chinese or Western medicine)
15:19 Xuan’s Four Questions — Before disliking Western medicine, ask yourself if you really understand it. Are you treating the patient’s health or protecting your pride in Chinese medicine? Has Chinese medicine had any major breakthroughs in diseases over the past decade? Without SRT, in today’s Chinese medicine environment, what other methods can quickly popularize certain medical techniques and experiences?
18:32 Does going to SRT mean you can’t learn Chinese medicine well? Does not going mean you can definitely learn well?
23:32 How to seize the opportunity of SRT to learn Chinese medicine? Pulse diagnosis, prescribing, acupuncture, and tuina massage are all possible
29:16 During SRT, if others don’t study Chinese medicine, will you stop studying it?
31:05 How to tap into the treasure trove of Western medicine? — Improve practical and communication skills, expand perspectives, only by understanding Western medicine can it be used by Chinese medicine
39:52 Emphasizing again, are you treating patients for their benefit or for your Chinese medicine pride?
41:15 Differences between top-tier tertiary hospitals, small clinics, and private practices? Experience the fundamentals of top-level tertiary hospitals
45:55 SRT is an important transition period for students entering society, starting to accept the harshness of society, but still with teachers supporting you, so it’s not too harsh
49:53 How to find a good teacher during SRT?
56:02 Choosing between an SRT teacher and a social teacher?
