About us
"From ancient times, celebrated physicians sometimes treat diseases with live animals. However, both humans and animals cherish their lives. To treat human beings using animals is against the principle of saving lives. Therefore, I don't use animals in my prescriptions."
Sun Simiao (581-682)
Famous physician of the Tang Dynasty
'On the Absolute Sincerity of Great Physicians' 《大医精诚》
