During the Daoguang to Guangxu years of the late Qing Dynasty, under the impact of the "Eastern spread of Western medicine" and the "traditional medicine crisis", folk Chinese medicine grew from a country doctor who adhered to ancient practices to a physician at the Taiyuan Hospital who integrated Chinese and Western medicine. In the process of adhering to the essence of Chinese medicine and absorbing the advantages of Western medicine, they understood that "physicians not only inherit ancient practices, but are also innovators who protect life in the changing times" and completed the growth and transformation from "traditional guardians" to "promoters of the integration of Chinese and Western medicine".
