["What an ideal clinical microbiological laboratory should be"--from the position of patient].
To think about the ideal clinical microbiological laboratory in patient's place, there are three important problems in present medical treatment. The first one, for patients, it is necessary to wait many hours to take a medical advice from a doctor. The second, patients should be checked many examinations. The third, the heavy patient's share in his medical expenses. To settle a bit these matters, the clinical laboratory should try to accept the rapid and economical examinations for patients.
