The phrase "understanding patients' preferences and aversions" comes from the
Huangdi's Internal Classic
(《黄帝内经》), which states that when doctors consult, they should clarify the patients' preferences and dislikes in order to comprehensively understand the condition, explore the essence of the disease, and develop personalized treatment plans. Teacher ZHU Zhaogang is skilled in clinical diagnosis, often asking patients about their daily likes and dislikes, dietary preferences, lifestyle habits, temperament, living environment, etc. While paying attention to the objective symptoms of patients, he also pays more attention to their subjective feelings and tendencies, so as to comprehensively and accurately observe the patients' condition, understand the cause of the disease, judge the nature of the disease, prescribe medication according to the patients' preferences according to the situation, act in accordance with the trend, and harmonize the body and mind, forming a unique diagnosis and treatment style and characteristics.
