ISLAMABAD, April 6 (Xinhua) -- Warmly welcoming the patients coming to a Chinese medical facility for routine health consultations and treatment, Sana Khan, a senior nurse at the Pakistan Qihuang Traditional Chinese Medicine Center in Islamabad, said she has covered all the bases for a successful five-day charity event.
From March 30 to April 3, the Pakistan Overseas Chinese Association, in collaboration with the Chinese Embassy in Pakistan, organized a free medical camp to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Pakistan.
"We have been witnessing a huge flow of patients at the medical facility, with around 60-70 patients, including Chinese diaspora and Pakistani citizens, visiting every day for routine check-up, consultations and treatment ... Other than that, free first aid kits are also being distributed among the patients," Khan said.
After getting her tests done, Sajida Mustafa, a student from Islamabad, said she has just finished her complete checkup and was deeply impressed by the center's service.
"The medical experience here was excellent. I completed all the tests, and the results were very good," said Mustafa, who is set to travel to China for a postdoctoral degree after securing a scholarship from the Chinese government recently.
Mustafa shared that the event not only provided valuable medical resources for Chinese people in Pakistan but also for the local population, especially those with difficulty accessing quality medical services.
Talking to Xinhua, Bai Furong, a Chinese businesswoman working in Pakistan, said that Pakistani staff are performing their duties very well.
"This year marks the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Pakistan. I sincerely hope that the friendship between the two countries will continue to grow stronger and closer," she said.
Azaz Husain, a lab technician who has worked at the center for many years, told Xinhua that since the start of the free clinic, many patients have come for checkups, and on the opening day of the event, they examined over 100 patients.
"At the center, medical staff systematically examined, performed multiple tests and treated patients," he added.
La Jielian, a Chinese doctor at the center, has been dedicated to promoting traditional Chinese medicine in Pakistan for decades.
"Our center is one of the most prominent traditional Chinese medicine institutions in Pakistan, specializing in acupuncture treatment ... with many local patients coming for treatment every day," he said.
"Traditional Chinese medicine is part of the Chinese culture. We hope that more Pakistanis will understand, learn and benefit from it," said La.
