  • During 2002, several doctors (an emergency physician, a general practitioner, two hospital residents and myself) and dentists were guests of the health services in the towns of HuaYang and DaLin. Both these towns are close to Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province in central China. This photograph was taken not far from the place we were staying. There was a plentiful supply of fresh fruit where we were staying! This shot was hand-held

  • DaLin is a small rural town, this is a picture inside the hospital compound. Our medical team visited during two weeks in May. Outpatient clinics are to the left and right of the picture. One visiting doctor is on the left facing towards the camera, another visiting doctor and dentist are sitting down on the right. The other doctors are all locals. During several days, we offered health screening such as blood pressure and glucose (sugar) checks. As you can see, the light was very harsh during midday.

  • This picture is just outside the DaLin hospital. I think one of the shops in the photograph is a pharmacy. DaLin is quite a small town, but other than the hospital it does have both a high school and primary school. Even in 2002, there were also several shops selling large screen televisions and DVD players! Again, the lighting in this photograph is very harsh.

  • This picture is the kitchen of the ShuangLiu County hospital canteen (in HuaYang). We were fed so well every day, it was almost embarrassing. Our medical team spent one week giving lectures to local medical staff on such topics and emergency care, diabetes, opthalmology and obstetrics. We also offered general health talks for the general public targetted towards the elderly.
