I traveled from Almaty specifically for PUMCH's endocrinology department. Dr. Chen's team diagnosed my rare thyroid condition within two days — something three hospitals back home couldn't figure out. The international coordinator Xiao Wang helped with everything from hotel booking to insurance paperwork.

Came for a stubborn skin condition that Indonesian dermatologists couldn't resolve. PUMCH's dermatology team used a combination of Western medicine and phototherapy. After 3 weeks of treatment, significant improvement. The only downside was the waiting time for initial consultation — about 5 days.
