Similarly, a common question lingered in everyone's mind: who exactly is Yang Fan? Why does he possess such profound mastery in Traditional Chinese Medicine?
It's even more extraordinary considering that he is only in his late teens.
Traditional Chinese Medicine values observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking, unlike Western medicine which relies heavily on instrument-based diagnostics. TCM relies on decades of clinical experience; consistent patient care and understanding of various pathological responses to different diseases are essential. It might take over a decade of cumulation to form one's theoretical foundation, requiring a lifetime of dedication to make significant progress in TCM.
Yet, this young man named Yang Fan has completely overturned this age-old logic.
Someone once tried to inquire about Yang Fan from Chen Jitang, but unfortunately, even Chen Jitang had no information and could not answer the questions posed by his colleagues and students.
