How to go to see a doctor in Taiwan

In Taiwan, it is convenient to see a doctor. Here are several steps to make it quickly and correctly.
First, decide which week of the month to come to the hospital, and confirm what kind of therapy do you need. For example: If you suffer from toothache, you may go to dentist. Then, make a registration on telephone or through internet in advance. The on-site registration is still another choice. Notice that you must prepare the appointment time, doctor code number, and your medical record number if you register in advance. Your medical record number could be replaced with your ID card number when it is your first time to come to the hospital. Third, remember to bring your Health Insurance Card and money, and inform the nurse your coming while you are waiting for diagnosis. The doctor would diagnose your problems when it is your turn. Next, hand in charge at the counter. Finally, you can pick your medicine at the pharmacy.
After doing what are mentioned above exactly, go back home and take a rest. Remember to follow doctor’s instruction and take medicine in correct time, or you may not got in good shape again quickly.
