The 3,000-km distance to the Tibet Autonomous Region will no longer prevent Beijing residents from being able to benefit from treatments combining Tibetan and Western medicines, with Wednesday's opening of a joint medical center.

The medical center established by the Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital and the Beijing Tibetan Medicine Hospital will adopt new treatments combining Western, traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicines.

The cooperation will allow a patient seeing doctors at the Beijing Tibetan Medicine Hospital to also receive treatment and diagnosis from experts at the Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital, and vice versa.

An expert with the Ministry of Health said that this new "double channel" diagnosis and treatment system will provide the most convenience for those who want to receive treatments assisted both by western medicine and Tibetan medicines.

The joint medical center has established 13 regular outpatient services and provided 100 beds.

The Sino-Japanese Friendship Hospital is a modern comprehensivehospital jointly established the Chinese and Japanese governments.It was also the designated hospital for treatment of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) patients by the Beijing People's Government.

Established in 1992, the Beijing Tibetan Medicine Hospital is the only state-level ethnic medical treatment center in Beijing.
