What people travel for
Care areas
These are the kinds of planned care overseas patients have reported seeking in China. Whether one suits you is a question for the treating doctors.
Cancer care
Overseas patients in China have sought tumor radiotherapy, chemotherapy and access to Chinese-made cancer drugs. Availability depends on your diagnosis and treatment history.
Second opinions and team reviews
Complex cases can be reviewed by several specialties together. This can be a useful first step, and it may not need a long trip.
Orthopedic surgery
Planned procedures such as hip surgery, where you can schedule the operation and recovery in advance.
Minimally invasive surgery
Planned procedures with shorter stays. Ask how long you must remain nearby before flying home.
Imaging and health checks
Scans and screening for people who want results quickly. Bring prior images so doctors can compare them.
Rehabilitation and traditional Chinese medicine
Some hospitals offer these alongside modern medicine. Tell every doctor about every treatment you take.
What we do not arrange
Some things patients ask about are outside what we will do, whatever the budget.
Organ transplants
We do not arrange organ transplants for anyone, including through a third party. China's 2024 regulations ban buying or selling organs, and we have no way to independently verify where an organ came from. If someone offers you a fast transplant abroad, treat that as a serious warning sign and talk to your transplant team.
Unproven treatments
We do not arrange cell therapies or other "cures" sold outside approved treatment or a registered clinical trial. Ask for the approval or trial registration, and show it to your own doctor.
Surrogacy and sex selection
We do not arrange either.
Emergencies
If you are seriously ill now, go to the nearest emergency department. Coordinated travel takes weeks.
