我认为现在医患纠纷最大的问题是医生和病人的沟通不够。一方面，有时医生解释不清病情，或者病人家属不能理解。另一方面，有些病人认为来到医院就一定能康复，对医生的期望太高。所以，医护人员应该尽力医治病人，更要积极有效地跟病人家属沟通。

I think that the greatest problem in disputes between doctors and patients is that doctors and patients don't communicate enough. On one hand, some doctors don't explain the illnesses clearly, or the relatives of the patient aren't able to understand. On the other hand, some patients think that by going to the hospital they will definitely recover. Their expectations of doctors are too high. So, medical personnel should do all they can to give a patient medical treatment, as well as proactively communicate with patients' families.

You can't really call that discrimination. Other than having children, under ordinary circumstances, men can often work overtime and go on business trips. Can a woman do that?

It doesn't sound like he has a real edge. If his expectations aren't too high, it should be pretty easy to get an average sort of job. But if he wants to get hired for a good position with a high salary, that could be difficult. After all, now there are a lot of very highly qualified people in China. It's not as easy as it used to be for foreigners to get a good job.
