如果生病了,花钱看病是理所当然的;但是仅仅是为了证明自己很健康,却也要花客观的一笔钱,这就很让人无语了…而这又是我今天下午在新加坡遭遇到的事情…
应学校要求,我下午去一家私人诊所申请一张健康证明,原以为这是医生举手之劳,花一两快而已,哪知道护士告诉我的价钱让我大跌眼镜:25新元!(125RMB)…
你知道医生都做了些啥吗?答案是:血压测量,胸腔听诊,腹部触诊,没了!前后只花了3分钟不到…
现在你知道看病在新加坡是多么恐怖的事情了吧?所以,请保持身体健康…
(无聊将上文翻译成英文,仅供参考–我英语很烂的…)Here is my lousy translation:
It is quite ok if one has to spend money on consulting doctors when sick. But if one has to spend considerable amount of money only to prove that he is HEALTHY… I will be quite speechless… This is what happened to me this afternoon in Singapore.
According to what my school requires, I need to go to a private clinic to get a certificate of fitness. I thought that it shouldn’t cost much, since it’s quite easy to do checking. But what the nurse told me nearly knocked me down: it cost 25 dollars (39 U.S. dollars)!
After all, what the doctor did were just some very basic checking, such as measuring blood pressure, auscultation and palpating. He spent only around 3 minutes…
Now you should have a impression on how costly just to SEE a doctor is in Singapore. So… Please keep healthy…
P.S.好长时间没写blog了,就当是因为忙吧…Long time not blogging, bacause I am busy…
