I remember going there when my grandfather was sick. Everyone was so nice and helpful.
Interesting slant
My grandmother and mother and aunties and uncles went here. So wonderful to hear the history and grateful that it is in the heart of chinatown and easily accessible to the abundant elderly who cant drive and live around there. Love this history lesson... thank you!!
Very cool story.
Thanks for covid
@@silentmajority8365 Chinese Hospital is not responsible for spreading COVID. Again, you are spreading hate. You are part of the problem.
Never new it existed and have lived here since the 70's. Makes sense since the medical system is sadly racist😢
OMG strange. Hearing about this hospital for the first time in my entire life.haven't heard of this hospital. Wondering how China is deeprooted in US. Also happy to hear they prevented the bubonic plague. A handful of people who took courage, strength, motivation to cut and clear make way thru the thorns and thistles of American hegemony and hold on a century for their voices to be heard after 100 years. May the hospital and the people who worked for it's sucess their names be written in GOLD. GOD BLESS
They brought the plague with rats
Lots of smuggling ships in those days bringing in Chinese SX slaves
I was born in the old building of the hospital seen at 2:20. It has been replaced by a new building at 0:44.
Chinese Hospital is the sole remaining independent hospital in San Francisco. All of these hospitals in the city have either shuttered or acquired by corporation:
Franklin (later Davies, acquired by Sutter Health)
French (acquired by Kaiser Permanente)
Dante Sanatarium (closed)
Park Sanitarium (closed)
St. Mary's (acquired by Dignity Health, sold to UCSF)
Southern Pacific (became Harkness which later closed, now a senior living facility)
St. Francis (acquired by Dignity Health, sold to UCSF)
Letterman (closed)
St. Luke's (acquired by Sutter Health)
Mary's Help (closed)
Shriners (now a senior living facility)
Children's (acquired by Sutter Health)
St. Joseph's (closed)
Public Health Service Hospital (closed)
Mt. Zion (acquired by UCSF)
Garden Sullivan (closed)
THANX for the info.
The new hospital is ok. They serve the area (mostly Asian) good for them.
I didn't know a building could be part of a race? Interesting slant
Ok, bot.
This hospital was built out of necessity in the 19th century. These were the problems the Chinese community faced:
Many hospitals refused to treat Chinese patients
Most hospitals were distant from Chinatown, and prospective patients were subject to attack en route
Most Chinese immigrants did not have sufficient knowledge of English to communicate with American doctors

The bigotry that necessitated the construction of Chinese Hospital still exist in those like silentmajority. (whom should
remain silent, if just spreading racism ) He/she knew why the hospital was built, but just wanted to be obnoxious.

I didn't know they let you out of the penitentiary.
@silentmajority8365
I didn't know they released you from the loony bin.
