INTJ (5w6)
Hua Tuo personality type is INTJ, not ESTP. In fact, he is a deep Thinker rather than a Feeling type.
The key to predicting his behavior is to understand the fact that Hua Tuo is a contrarian, a person who does not easily agree with others. He has a tendency to be a lone wolf and try to undermine the group’s consensus. He often acts against the majority opinion when he feels that the majority is wrong.
Hua Tuo’s type is rare in China. He is among the 5% of Chinese who are INTJ (INFJ and INTJ both make up 1% of the world population).

Hua Tuo (c. 140–208), courtesy name Yuanhua, was a Chinese physician who lived during the late Eastern Han dynasty.[1] The historical texts Records of the Three Kingdoms and Book of the Later Han record Hua Tuo as the first person in China to use anaesthesia during surgery. He used a general anaesthetic combining wine with a herbal concoction called mafeisan (麻沸散; literally "cannabis boil powder"). Besides being respected for his expertise in surgery and anaesthesia, Hua Tuo was famous for his abilities in acupuncture, moxibustion, herbal medicine and medical Daoyin exercises. He developed the Wuqinxi (五禽戲; literally "Exercise of the Five Animals") from studying movements of the tiger, deer, bear, ape and crane.
