Medical Trip to China
12th October - 26th October 2008
Hong Kong – Macau – GuangXi Nanning
Each year, the AcuMedic Foundation organises a CMIR medical trip to China to continue the Beijing University of Chinese Medicines' work in bridging the gap between East/West healthcare. The trip offers Western doctors the opportunity to experience medicine as practiced in Chinese hospitals as well as presenting a unique occasion to sample Chinese life on both a professional and personal level.
Doctors, their spouses and their family are all welcome, as free time will be spent feasting, sightseeing and relaxing.
