I am taking the rest of the summer off and will reply to your email/comments when I am back. Thank you for your patience and I hope you too will have an enjoyable summer. (6/24/2016)

The best way to find your way around is to use the TOC (with labels) link. (9/24/2013)

Descendants of doctors who had practiced in Hong Kong before 1942 wishing to be guest authors in this blog are welcomed to drop me a line via email. (9/12/2013)

There are over 800 medical practitioners existing in Hong Kong between 1841 and 1941. I've covered 41 so far; two of them I know nothing of beyond their names, so I guess what I want to say is that – Be Patient. I'll thank you for that. (9/12/2013)
