Owing to the arrival of a large number of German Jewish doctors, medical assistance here is becoming available for wider circles of the local population, who previously were unable to pay the high fees demanded by doctors.

Many of the German Jewish physicians are going to South China and neighboring countries. However, in spite of the arrival of these doctors, there still exists in Shanghai a great shortage of medical specialists, as the German doctors who arrived here are in the main young general practitioners.
