I'm sorry guys, I just wrote a super long review and when I clicked submit it decided I wasn't logged in anymore.
I'll write it again tomorrow, but writing all that again one-handed just isn't what I'm in the mood for now!
The surgery went well though.
Fear not, you'll have your post tomorrow!

Forums > Living in Kunming > Dancefloor accident / Orthopedist or Hand Surgeon

The main point of this thread is at the bottom; the first part is just explaining why.

Saturday evening I was out having a good time, which then came to an abrupt halt as I was pulling off a wicked dancemove. I put my hand down (as this is often required to pull off the wickedest of dancemoves) on a broken bottle; a whining thread as to why there was glass on the floor will come up later.
To my dismay, the cut was across the ligaments of my left wrist and I have lost feeling in my index finger and half the feeling in my middle finger and thumb. Some very nice mates put me in a cab and jumped in after and we rushed off to the hospital. First time to a Chinese hospital, not a memory I will be fond of.
Obviously they said I neded surgery but that wouldn't be possible for another six hours. So I went home to sleep and contact my insurance company, who recommened Richland International Hospital, it was supposed to be above average standard so I went there the day after. A very exquisite hospital I must say, sadly I can't say the same for the incompetent 'doctor' I was granted. '
Now I'm no expert but rubbing raw nerves with a cloth just isn't the way to go. And my four stitches look like a Neanderthal worked on me, and that's almost a compliment. I also had the pleasure of having a syringe stabbed into my arse; very nice.
I then went on to enjoy the gruelingly slow service at Silver Spoon.

After all this I came home and contacted, what I am going to be extremely rude and call, real doctors back home. And they recommended me to go against the advice given here (the feeling will come back on it's own) and go find myself an orthopedist or a hand surgeon.

Which is the reason I am reaching out to my fellow peers.
Can anyone please help?
This numbness really blows.
If this person is english-speaking that would be brilliant.
And yet another rude comment, if he/she is westernly trained, all the better.
As you might have noticed, not digging the local healthcare system.
