After inquiring what the nearby vendors said, it was learned that there are three doctors in this clinic building. They were originally Dr. Pan Muzhi’s Xiangsheng Hospital and later Dr. Lin Zhenhua. Zhenhua Hospital in Beijing was finally leased to Dr. Wang Jinji of the Gospel United Clinic. It has no business now, and part of the first floor is leased to a grocer to set up a stall. Doctor-related stories Originally Dr. Pan Muzhi, graduated from Tokei Medical College in Japan. After graduating from the medical school, he obtained a doctor’s license and returned to the current location to open Xiangsheng Hospital. In 1947, due to the February 28th incident, he was arrested on behalf of the people at the airport to discuss peace. And was brutally shot. After the war ended, Dr. Lin Zhenhua, who was studying in Japan, had to return to Taiwan. From the Kyushu Tei University Medical Department of Japan, Dr. Lin Zhenhua, who specializes in pediatrics, rented the clinic at the current site and changed it to Zhenhua Hospital. During the period of opening, business was booming, according to local residents. , Zhenhua Hospital became a medical need for the residents around that time to deepen their memories. Capital Information Located on Gongming Road, which was called "Doctor Street" during the Japanese Occupation, according to Dr. Lin’s daughter, because Gongming Road was the main road leading to the East Gate at that time, and because of the crowds in the East Market, it became one of the key factors for many doctors’ offices to open. . Due to the need for space in the ward, my father purchased the high-rise building behind the clinic building in 1977 to use it for patients who came from afar and needed to rest or be hospitalized. The right side of the building was originally a parking lot during the time of Dr. Lin Zhenhua, but it is now connected to the garden behind the clinic. The medical space is used. The first floor is rented by Dr. Wang Jinji, and has been greatly modified according to needs. However, the second floor is not rented. It was previously occupied by Lin Zhenhua’s wife, Lin Baiyi, but now it is inconvenient to move. Fifteen come here to worship ancestors. The building is a three-room two-story tile-roofed building. The facade of the building is decorated with wash stones. The elegant stigma decoration and the protruding balcony on the second floor front, open arch windows and round windows add a lot of architectural three-dimensionality; the side of the building is decorated with common The surface layer of the Japanese rain shower board is made of asphalt and waterproof paint, black and white, showing that the building has been added in different periods due to space requirements, and the roof form is intricately styled, making it even more distinct. Space organization of the old hospital The building is long and narrow. The clinic space on the first floor is in a vertical relationship with the living space of the physicians on the second floor. The clinic space is denser. They are waiting area, registration room, injection room, examination room, drip area, and emergency area. According to interviews, Zhenhua Hospital specializes in pediatrics. Many patients from other places come here to see the diagnosis, resulting in a shortage of wards. There is a five-story dedicated ward building at the rear to allow patients from afar to live temporarily; the rear of the first floor Space and living space on the second floor. The restaurant is centered on the second floor. There is a hidden staircase on the right side of the hospital, which clearly separates the clinic space and the living space.
