These famous doctors have good calligraphy skills, and their fonts are mainly regular script, which is beautiful, generous and clear and easy to read, so they have been preserved to this day.

Behind these prescriptions, they don't know how many prescriptions have been prescribed and how many patients have been saved.
Write more, have self-cultivation, and the good breath will jump on the paper.
As Huang once said, "Art is the highest way to maintain health. It can not only feed the Chinese nation, but also cultivate the well-being and longevity of all mankind!"
