Shanghai's global healthcare: A city embracing international patients

Edwin Montealegre, a Costa Rican music conductor, recounted his experience seeking medical attention at Zhongshan Hospital, praising the efficiency and speed of the services.

"In just three and a half hours, I have had consultations, blood tests, an electrocardiogram, and received my diagnosis and prescriptions. In Costa Rica, if I had the same problem, probably it would take several months. So it's a really big difference," he said.
