Overview
Founded in 1915 as China's very first national hospital, Peking University First Hospital carries a legacy of medical excellence spanning over a century. It is nationally renowned for urology, nephrology, and dermatology.
International patients particularly value its comprehensive second-opinion services. Many come specifically to have complex diagnoses reviewed by its senior professors — doctors who have spent decades treating cases that even top Western hospitals would consider rare. One German patient remarked: "The professor spent 40 minutes reviewing my case, found something my doctors in Munich missed, and charged $15."
The hospital combines traditional Chinese thoroughness in diagnosis with rigorous Western medical protocols, offering patients a uniquely comprehensive approach that satisfies both Eastern and Western medical philosophies.

Patient Stories
"I brought my US diagnosis here for a second opinion. The professor spent 40 minutes reviewing everything — imaging, blood work, pathology — and found something my American doctors missed entirely. Cost: $15. This single visit potentially saved my life."

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a second opinion remotely?
Yes, we can arrange a preliminary remote consultation where you share medical records, imaging, and test results. However, for the most thorough evaluation, an in-person visit is recommended. Many patients combine a second opinion with a health screening trip.
