  Tencent Trusted Doctors (企鹅杏仁) was a Chinese digital-health group formed in August 2018
  by merging Tencent's medical unit Tencent Doctorwork (企鹅医生) with the Shanghai doctor
  platform Trusted Doctors (杏仁医生). It combined an online consultation and doctor-social
  platform with a network of bricks-and-mortar clinics, connecting roughly 440,000 verified
  physicians to more than 10 million patients, and reached unicorn valuation on a USD 250M
  round in April 2019 backed by Tencent and Country Garden Ventures. The company was
  acquired by Medlinker (医联) with the deal completing 2021-01-01, and the 企鹅杏仁 brand was
  retired in April 2021 in favour of 未来医生 (Future Doctor). It never published a public
  developer program, API reference, or machine-readable contract, and its primary domain
  xingren.com now redirects wholesale to the acquirer.

    The successor brand describes itself as "脱胎于2014年成立的医联集团" (born out of Medlinker
    Group) and publishes only medlinker.com contact addresses, so artifacts served from
    doctorwork.com today are attributed to Medlinker, not to this company. Only the
    @doctorwork npm scope and the github.com/doctorwork organisation — both of which
    predate the acquisition and are explicitly named 企鹅医生 — are attributed here.

  detail: >-
    The company was absorbed into Medlinker on 2021-01-01 and its brand retired in April
    2021; its own primary domain www.xingren.com now returns a blanket HTTP 301 to
    www.medlinker.com, and the only surviving "开发者中心" at developer.doctorwork.com is
    internal employee tooling behind the company's own SSO (the page loads
    /_/sso/internal/user and an app bundle named "oa-dev-tools"), not a public developer
    portal.
