HOSPITAL VISIT GUIDE

Get to know West China Hospital, Sichuan University

Medical care, international cooperation and student contacts serve different purposes.

Planning a visit

Published sources are linked below. Confirm your department, appointment, language support and payment arrangements with the hospital before travelling.

Use the linked hospital or public-service information to confirm the current appointment channel. This directory does not arrange appointments or provide medical advice.

Location and campus

The hospital identifies its main location as 37 Guoxue Alley, Wuhou, Chengdu. The International Medical Center contact section gives the Fourth Inpatient Building. Confirm the outpatient reporting point with the service. The overview lists main, Wenjiang and Jinjiang campuses. Do not apply the main-site reception instructions to another campus.

Choose the enquiry route

The page separates International Medical Center care enquiries from the International Office’s cooperation contacts. Use the medical-care section for appointment questions. Distinct telephone contacts are labeled appointment and enquiry. Consult the linked source for the current contact details. The medical-care section supplies appointment and medical-center email channels. Ask how to submit records securely. Student and trainee contacts are separately listed. They are not patient registration channels.

Clinical scope

The overview describes lung-cancer surgery, gastrointestinal surgery and cardiac intervention among its clinical areas. A department capability does not establish acceptance of an individual case. Medical imaging and nuclear medicine are included in the overview. A clinical assessment and test-specific preparation may be required.

Suggested preparation sequence

Editorial planning guidance; not a hospital policy or booking confirmation.

  1. Identify the department and campus with the hospital.

Questions to resolve before you book travel

  4. Costs and confirmation. Request itemized estimates and insurance authorization, then wait for the hospital’s booking confirmation.
