@swopat: You might check out Metro and perhaps Walmart on the supposition that they retain some vestige of Western quality control. This is not to say that their meat will be up to your standards, just that it's probably less bad than virtually all other local options.
I don't include Carrefour because there has been at least one report on here of their selling meat crawling with worms.
That newspaper is seen as particularly problematic by national authorities -- check their Wikipedia page. Whatever your opinion on the underlying merits, it's probably best not to post links to their site here. The story was covered by multiple other outlets that could have been linked to instead.
I would make an appointment at Grace Medical clinic. They are staffed by Western-trained doctors and offer primary/family services as well as some specialty services in-house. In the remainder of cases, they can often give a referral to a Chinese provider.
You start off with an interesting point. It's true that on occasions when it suits his fancy, Peter99 displays erudition as well as something resembling civic-spiritedness. In fact, I believe I upvoted his initial post on this thread when it originally appeared.
But I don't think that's sufficient to negate the coarseness and douchiness he exhibits elsewhere. It seems more accurate to say that he has a curious Jekyll and Hyde act going on.
Well, my initial comment above was intended to address a series of posts by jakefinn on several different threads, of which the post on this router thread was only the most recent. I probably should have made that clearer at the outset.
Grace is staffed by American doctors and, in my experience, provides the same level of expertise and standard of care that you would expect to find in a good clinic in the U.S. I highly recommend them.

@willdog's earlier comment is spam, however.
