Itinerant doctors refer to the doctors who would go to the patient's home to practice medicine in towns and villages. They usually carry a medicine cabinet to visit the patients. These doctors, going into the ordinary family to diagnose diseases and excelling in using acupuncture, were well-received by the patients for their effectiveness in curing diseases. Some well-known doctors in the history of Chinese medicine had attained their reputation by practicing medicine among the general public. |
