Definition
就诊 (jiù zhěn) is a formal verb specifically for 'going to see a doctor for a consultation' at a clinic or hospital. It is narrower than 就医 (jiù yī), which covers all forms of seeking medical treatment, and less focused on the 'searching' aspect than 求医 (qiú yī), which implies actively finding a doctor for a difficult condition.
