4.1 / 5

Crossed the border from Myanmar for a comprehensive cancer screening. Kunming is the closest major Chinese city for us. The hospital is large and busy but the international office arranged a fast-track pathway. All tests completed in 2 days. Results were explained with a Burmese interpreter via phone.
