Hey besties I did a $100 full-body health check in China In this video I’m taking you with me to do a full-body health check in China for just $100. From blood tests to ultrasounds and screenings, this is what preventative healthcare in China actually looks like. It’s fast, affordable, and surprisingly thorough. I’ve always been interested in a preventative approach to healthcare, rather than only going to the doctor when something feels wrong. Recently, more and more foreigners are travelling to China for medical tourism, thanks to the low costs, modern hospitals, and same-day results. So I decided to try it for myself and document the entire experience. What tests are included in a Chinese full-body health check How long everything takes What hospitals in China are like as a foreigner 🌸 Let me know in the comments if you’d do this kind of health check, or if you have questions about living in China as a foreigner!
