Shanghai medical teams head to remote regions
By Cai Wenjun
Some 200 medical volunteers from seven hospitals affiliated to Shanghai Medical College Fudan University departed Shanghai on Tuesday to provide free consultations and treatment to people in rural provinces.
The college started sending high-end medical personnel to rural regions in 1994, making this year the 30th anniversary of the program. Along with providing treatment, the doctors and nurses from Shanghai also give training to local medical professionals.
So far, the mission has visited 16 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities in the nation. Villagers in these remote areas have nicknamed the doctors and nurses "white angels who walk deep in the mountains."
