: : : Any similarity between Tung Wah Dispensary, before the 1906's earthquake, and The Chinese Hospital now? I am talking about their histroy, the running of these two organisation, and other health related services.

: : At the moment, I am working on a project concerning the Chinese view of the 1900 plague in San Francisco's Chinatown. The Dispensary was primarily an outpatient institution with limited inpatient beds for emergencies, a Christian organization staffed by Western volunteer physicians and Chinese herbalists

: Thanks a lots. your background information clearly gives a basic understanding of that dispensary. I guess this would be enough even though I want to know some more. But thanks indeed.
