Hi All,

For my last bit of my apprenticeship, I headed over to National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH).

I studied in a Western Medical hospital, and saw tons of blood and guts!

I saw In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Intra-Uterine Insemination (IUI), Brain surgeries, vaginal deliveries, C-sections, and so much more.

The clean pictures are on this page, but the bloody ones are on second page.

There are lots of videos!!
The first video is clean... just my thoughts from Taiwan, but the rest are as titled.
Watch at your own risk, as there is plenty of blood and guts.

Lastly, I want to say that I loved Taiwan, and it pained me to leave. I hope to go back, and have been invited back to the hospital, which I may or may not do, but Taiwan in general is fantastic!!

Enjoy~

So far: Asia, Western Europe, and the Middle East. Next Stop: Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and back to the Middle East. Joni P.S.
