Peking University International Hospital, Beijing
Care pathways

Nine specialty pathways. One coordinated journey.

From a first second opinion to complex surgery and follow-up, we help you access the right Chinese specialists — and manage everything around the care.

How to use this page

Start with the diagnosis, not the hospital name.

We are not a hospital. We are the team that helps you get to the right one. Each pathway below explains who it is for, what we coordinate, and which hospitals are a strong fit.

Tell us what you know

Share your diagnosis, imaging, pathology, and what you have already tried. A short summary is enough to begin.

We review the fit

We identify the departments and specialists whose experience matches your case, then confirm whether a visit is appropriate.

You decide with a plan

You receive a proposed pathway, timeline, and written estimate before you commit to travel or treatment.

A new diagnosis or a treatment that has stopped working can leave you with more questions than answers. We help you get a focused second opinion and a realistic plan — before you commit to travel.

Common reasons to reach out

  • A new cancer diagnosis and uncertainty about the best first treatment
  • Recurrence or progression after surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation
  • Interest in CAR-T, proton therapy, or a clinical trial
  • A second opinion before a major operation

What we coordinate

  • Pathology and imaging review by the relevant tumor team
  • Multidisciplinary (MDT) opinion and a written treatment plan
  • Surgical, medical oncology, and radiation oncology appointments
  • A hospital cost estimate and a realistic travel window

CAR-T and proton therapy are assessed case by case. Not every patient is eligible, and the treating center makes the final decision.

For joint pain, spine problems, and complex reconstruction, the surgeon's case volume and implant planning matter. We help you find a team whose experience matches your anatomy and goals.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Knee or hip osteoarthritis that limits daily life
  • Disc herniation, spinal stenosis, or persistent back pain
  • A failed prior surgery or unresolved complication
  • Bone tumor, limb deformity, or complex reconstruction
  • Sports injury and return-to-activity planning

What we coordinate

  • Imaging review and surgeon selection
  • 3D-printed implants and patient-specific surgical guides
  • Surgery date, pre-op assessment, and anesthesia review
  • Rehabilitation plan and return-to-activity timeline

Custom 3D-printed devices and complex revision surgery require additional planning time. We confirm availability before you travel.

Heart care is a team sport. We help you get a clear opinion on whether surgery, a catheter procedure, or medication is the right next step — from a center that performs the procedure often.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Complex coronary artery disease or a difficult angioplasty
  • Valve repair or replacement, including minimally invasive options
  • Aortic aneurysm, dissection, or Marfan-related disease
  • Atrial fibrillation, arrhythmia, or structural heart disease
  • A second opinion before cardiac surgery

What we coordinate

  • Echocardiography, CT, angiography, and catheterization reports
  • Surgical versus interventional opinion
  • ICU, blood bank, and perioperative planning
  • Family communication and discharge planning
Representative hospitalsFuwai HospitalBeijing AnzhenPUMCHZhongshan Hospital

Acute chest pain and unstable symptoms require emergency care locally. Do not delay to contact us.

Brain and spine surgery carries high stakes. We help you understand the surgical options, the technology available, and the experience of the team — before you travel.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Glioma, meningioma, pituitary tumor, or skull-base tumor
  • Brain aneurysm, AVM, or carotid disease
  • Trigeminal neuralgia, epilepsy, or movement disorders
  • Complex spine or nerve compression

What we coordinate

  • MRI, CT, angiography, and pathology review
  • Neuro-navigation and intraoperative MRI discussion
  • Surgical planning and second opinion
  • Neuro-oncology, rehabilitation, and follow-up

Some neurosurgical conditions are time-critical. We will tell you if you need care immediately and locally.

Cataract, refractive, and retinal care can be highly efficient in Beijing — often with shorter waits and lower self-pay costs. We help you choose the right procedure and follow-up plan.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Cataract and lens selection
  • High myopia or refractive error
  • Retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, or macular disease
  • Glaucoma or a complex second opinion

What we coordinate

  • Eye examination and imaging appointments
  • Lens and procedure selection
  • Surgery scheduling and pre-op preparation
  • Post-op follow-up and medication plan

Not all eye conditions are suitable for short-stay surgery. Some retina cases require longer follow-up in China.

Full-arch implants and complex restoration can offer significant savings, but the process is staged. We help you plan the number of visits, the lab work, and the realistic timeline.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Missing teeth or failing dentition
  • All-on-4 or All-on-6 full-arch restoration
  • Failed implants or unresolved infection
  • Jaw reconstruction or aesthetic dentistry

What we coordinate

  • CBCT and intraoral scan review
  • Treatment staging and prosthesis planning
  • Lab timeline and multiple-visit itinerary
  • Post-treatment review before you fly home
Representative hospitalsBeijing StomatologicalPKU School of StomatologyJinsong Dental

Full-arch treatment usually requires two or more visits over several months. We will not promise a one-trip solution if it is not clinically appropriate.

Diabetes, thyroid disease, and metabolic disorders often need careful long-term management. We help you access a specialist assessment and an integrated plan that can include TCM support.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Poorly controlled diabetes or complications
  • Thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, or hormone imbalance
  • Obesity, metabolic syndrome, or osteoporosis
  • Adrenal, pituitary, or complex endocrine disease

What we coordinate

  • Lab and imaging review
  • Endocrinologist appointment and second opinion
  • Integrated TCM consultation where appropriate
  • A long-term monitoring and medication plan

Hormone testing may need to be repeated in China. We will help you plan the timing and avoid unnecessary travel.

A full-body checkup can be completed in one to two days, with English-language reports and a clear follow-up plan. It is a practical option for executives, families, and anyone who wants a baseline.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Annual executive or full-body checkup
  • Family history of cancer or heart disease
  • Pre-travel health assessment
  • A second opinion on an abnormal screening result

What we coordinate

  • Package selection based on age, history, and goals
  • One- to two-day scheduling
  • English-language reports and interpretation
  • Specialist follow-up for abnormal findings
Representative hospitalsPUMCH301 HospitalUnited FamilyBeijing Hospital

Screening is not a diagnosis. Abnormal findings require follow-up with the relevant specialist.

Traditional Chinese medicine can play a useful role in chronic pain, post-stroke recovery, and post-operative rehabilitation. We help you access a reputable hospital-based TCM team and integrate it with your Western medical plan.

Common reasons to reach out

  • Chronic pain, arthritis, or musculoskeletal tension
  • Post-stroke or post-operative rehabilitation
  • Sleep, stress, or digestive complaints
  • Integrative support alongside cancer treatment

What we coordinate

  • TCM consultation and constitution assessment
  • Acupuncture, tuina, and herbal treatment plan
  • Integration with your Western specialists
  • A realistic course length and follow-up plan

TCM is complementary. We do not present it as a replacement for emergency care, surgery, or proven medical treatment.

Not sure where to start?

Send us the diagnosis. We'll help you find the right pathway.

You do not need a complete file or a decided plan. A short summary of your situation is enough for us to tell you what information we need next.

We will tell you honestly if we are not the right fit.
