How do you say Chinese medicine and western medicine in English? The more professional kind.
If you want a general idea:

Chinese medicine:

doctor of traditional chinese medicine

Herbalist

Herbalist;

Western medicine:

Doctor of western medicine

Doctor of modern medicine

(depending on the environment, if you are abroad, if you don't want to distinguish yourself from Chinese medicine and Thai medicine, you can basically say doctor. )

If you want an internationally recognized true and professional statement, you can refer to the following statement:

Chinese medicine (from North America's "Requirements for Professional Title Positioning and Qualification in Chinese Medicine Legislation");

1. acupuncturist (R.AC for short), engaged in acupuncture treatment;

2. Registered Chinese medicine practitioner (R.TCM.H for short), engaged in Chinese medicine treatment;

3. Registered Chinese medicine practitioners (R.TCM.P for short), engaged in Chinese medicine treatment;

4. Senior TCM doctor (R.TCM.P for short), who is engaged in TCM treatment and accepts referrals of difficult diseases from other TCM. (Note the difference with the third statement)

Western medicine (generally the following three):

Doctor (collectively): doctor

surgeon

Doctor: Doctor.

But western medicine has special terms for doctors in all disciplines. Often when foreign doctors introduce themselves, they directly name their two disciplines. You can refer to the following expert positions:

accoucheur

Midwife/Midwife
