The showdown between holistic and modern medicine occurred in Salt City. The choice of location was deliberate.Although Salt City was a big city, it had not been well-known before the Innova Group's appearance.The level of holistic medicine in such a city would not be very high, but it would certainly attract significant attention."These people must be up to no good," Sylvia said. "They won't be satisfied until they completely trample holistic medicine."She knew that everything revolved around interests. Without interests, who would bother? Before the showdown commenced, the modern medicine faction had already launched its advertising campaign. In contrast, holistic medicine took a more subdued approach, confining discussions to its circles."It's because we've piqued their interest," Eric remarked. "In the future, the Innova Group's venture into this industry will likely encounter challenges from opponents, whether in modern or holistic medicine."Where interests clashed,
Obviously, modern medicine heavily relied on equipment for diagnosis. If a mild cold persisted for too long, there was no escaping tests like blood work.After a few words, the showdown between modern and holistic medicine commenced.Ten women sat in front of the podium—the test subjects of today's showdown.The modern medicine representative pointed to those ten women, saying, "Hol. Clarke, yesterday we used ultrasound to examine them. The results are sealed in this box. It's said that the essence of holistic medicine lies in pulse diagnosis, and any condition can be discerned. "Hol. Clarke, please examine their pulses and determine who is pregnant and whether the results align with our results."Some representatives from the field of holistic medicine present refrained from laughing. After all, pulse reading was merely the basis of holistic medicine.Winston nodded and said, "Let's begin."The modern medicine representative waved, and the first woman approached Winston and sa
During the blood test, the auditorium fell unusually silent. The anticipation was thick in the air as the results would determine the victor of this round.An hour later, a hospital doctor approached with the verdict."Congratulations, Ms. Aberdeen!" the doctor exclaimed.A stir erupted in the auditorium as the revelation unfolded.Several doctors, equally astonished, had already verified the results that Ms. Aberdeen was not pregnant.Eric chuckled. "Hol. Clarke takes this round."Sylvia nodded with a smile.Winston demonstrated efficiency by providing results in just ten minutes, contrasting sharply with modern medicine's hour-long blood test. The test result aligned with Winston's assessment.A senior doctor stood up, smiling. "This round is a draw! You holistic physicians indeed have something!"While his words seemed to praise holistic medicine, an experienced holistic physician couldn't sit still and retorted, "Dr. Cardin, what do you mean by a draw? Hol. Clarke clearly
After all, the world was never fair to begin with."Let's take a look first," Eric said. "The showdown has just begun, and it will only get tougher. Even modern medicine cannot provide absolute certainty."The patients participating in the showdown were a significant uncertain factor.Although Eric hadn't delved much into medical practice recently, he knew that complex and challenging-to-treat conditions were on the rise in modern society. Some diseases were beyond the capabilities of modern medicine.Sylvia looked at Eric and asked, "Eric, do you think the final showdown will involve diseases like cancer? Modern medicine still cannot perfectly treat cancer. What about holistic medicine?"She knew that Eric was highly skilled in holistic medicine. Not only had he healed the scars on her face without a trace, but he had also brought his deceased mentor back to life for three days. As such, Sylvia thought that Eric must have a way to deal with cancer."Holistic medicine does have m
How quickly could holistic medicine diagnose?Excluding uncommon and complicated diseases, most illnesses could be identified through observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-reading.For slightly more complex conditions, various examinations were inevitable, making the process time-consuming, as anyone who had been to a hospital would know.The two matches highlighted the significant advantage of holistic medicine for those paying attention.Despite both rounds resulting in a draw, who held the upper hand was evident. Still, it didn't imply that holistic medicine was flawless.After the two matches, the hospital returned to normal, marking only the first day of the competition.The Williams and Sonnex families closely followed the developments.For the Williams, Eric, their son-in-law, was an exceptionally skilled holistic physician. Naturally, they paid close attention to the showdown.Meanwhile, Irvin and Eric were sworn brothers, and Eric had successfully treated Josh
Sonnex Corp. had even established playgrounds on its premises.Irvin and the high-level Sonnex executives had implemented everything they could think of. As a result, Sonnex Corp. had always enjoyed an excellent reputation in Salt City.Williams Corp. had also implemented extensive benefits for its employees.Meanwhile, the Innova Group still lacked in some aspects. Due to its short establishment time and rapid development phase, certain issues naturally hadn't been considered. Nonetheless, the Innova Group did provide gyms, resting rooms, and coffee rooms.Upon hearing Irvin's words, Eric replied, "Working on it, definitely working on it!"Irvin chuckled.Queenie was bewildered. During her time with the Williams, she had sorted out the relationships.Sylvia and Eric were married, while Sylvester and Seraphine were in a relationship and about to get married. Misty was Irvin's daughter, making Irvin and Henry in-laws.Queenie couldn't understand why Irvin addressed Eric and Sylv
The effectiveness of holistic medicine was unquestionable in circles like the Williams and Sonnex families.-A group of doctors was having a meeting, mainly discussing Winston, the renowned holistic physician. These doctors had some understanding of holistic medicine—their hospitals even employed holistic physicians.However, they looked down on holistic medicine, perceiving it as old-fashioned, with physicians relying on their skills to act arrogantly.The group's leading figure was none other than Neal."Hol. Clarke is quite capable! I didn't expect a small place like Salt City would feature such a proficient holistic physician!" he remarked.He believed holistic medicine was effective but wanted to discredit it. In doing so, modern medicine would continue to dominate, ensuring their interests.They had been belittling holistic medicine for a long time, and their efforts had been quite successful. At least for now, genuinely skilled holistic physicians were inaccessible to th
On the second day of the showdown, two pairs of patients were selected, each suffering from different but distinct medical conditions. They were then assigned to both sides to determine who could provide better and faster treatment.In this round, modern medicine once again held an initial advantage. They didn't need to diagnose the patients because the diagnoses were already established.However, Winston had to read their pulses for diagnosis before devising a treatment plan. After assessing the pulses, he analyzed the conditions and proposed a treatment plan.The hospital thoughtfully prepared snacks for the final match today, anticipating its time-consuming nature.A doctor stood up, announcing, "We'll begin our treatment."The first patient had kidney stones. Modern medicine had two approaches for this patient: using ultrasound to break down the stones and then expel them or opting for a slightly complex surgical procedure.Surgery had its variations, with one requiring an in
