After 16 years of development and growth, Ahu Medical Examination has developed from a small team of a few people at the beginning to a 700+ service team.
From a clinical doctor at Peking Union Medical College to a medical examination education: determined to change the medical examination industry
Sixteen years ago, Wu Chunhu, who had just graduated from Peking Union Medical College with an eight-year clinical doctorate, saw the gap between urban and rural medical conditions and the lack of resources for training grassroots doctors, so he made a dream in his heart: China does not lack one more top doctor, and it lacks a leverage force to help the entire grassroots medical staff improve their professional skills. He is willing to work hard for the improvement of primary medical care in China.
So, after graduating, Wu Chunhu made a bold choice and decision - to establish Ahu Medical Examination, starting with making medical examination teaching and auxiliary books, focusing on the career development of grassroots doctors in China, and empowering China's medical examination industry. From the office of several people at the beginning of its establishment, to the current development of many medical examination textbooks, the editor-in-chief Wu Chunhu can be seen.
