Shenzhen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine

Shenzhen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine (formerly Shenzhen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Second Outpatient Clinic, renamed in 2021) is a Grade A tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospital directly affiliated with Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. It integrates medical treatment, teaching, scientific research, prevention, and healthcare, and stands as a highly influential hub for integrated Chinese and Western medicine services in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Since its official operation in 2016, the hospital has leveraged the profound academic heritage of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine while integrating Shenzhen's innovative spirit. It has progressively evolved into a modern TCM hospital characterized by “distinctive TCM features, advanced modern technology, and internationally aligned services.”

I. Hospital Overview

Located at the intersection of North Ring Avenue and Huanggang Road in Futian District, Shenzhen, the hospital enjoys a tranquil and elegant environment adjacent to Central Park. Covering approximately 42,000 square meters, it has 800 designated beds with over 600 operational beds. As a key clinical teaching base for Beijing University of Chinese Medicine in South China, the hospital provides clinical training for undergraduates, postgraduates, and international students. It has established academic collaborations with overseas institutions such as Harvard Medical School and the School of Chinese Medicine at the University of Hong Kong to advance the international dissemination of Chinese medicine.

II. Technical Strength: A Model of Integrative Medicine Innovation

Guided by the philosophy of “inheriting the essence and upholding innovation,” the hospital has developed a dual-drive model combining “traditional Chinese medicine techniques with modern medical technologies”:

• Traditional Chinese Medical Techniques: Preserving traditional therapies like acupuncture, tuina massage, moxibustion, and cupping while integrating modern medical innovations. Examples include the “Awakening the Brain and Opening the Orifices” acupuncture technique for post-stroke sequelae, the “Jin San Zhen” therapy for pediatric brain disorders, and Fire Dragon Moxibustion for sub-health conditions—all with industry-recognized efficacy.

• Modern Technology Empowerment: Equipped with advanced facilities, including the Da Vinci surgical robot, 3.0T MRI, 256-slice spiral CT, and DSA digital subtraction angiography machines. These support complex surgeries (e.g., laparoscopic tumor resection, joint replacement) and precise imaging diagnostics, enabling collaborative treatment through “TCM pattern identification + Western disease diagnosis.”

III. Leading Specialties: National/Provincial Key Specialty Clusters

Guided by the principles of “strengthening classical foundations, emphasizing clinical practice, and promoting innovation,” the hospital has developed multiple nationally influential specialty disciplines:

• Key Specialties Designated by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture Department (South China Regional Center for TCM Acupuncture Diagnosis and Treatment), Tuina Department (with distinctive pediatric tuina expertise), and TCM Cardiology Department (integrated TCM-Western medicine prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease).

• Provincial Key Specialties: Orthopedics (combining minimally invasive spinal surgery with manual reduction techniques), Preventive Medicine Center (establishing full-cycle health management through “constitution identification-intervention-tracking”), TCM Gastroenterology (combining herbal medicine with endoscopic treatment for early-stage gastrointestinal cancers).

• Distinctive Interdisciplinary Departments: Integrated Traditional and Western Oncology (herbal medicine to mitigate chemotherapy/radiotherapy side effects), Traditional Chinese Gynecology (classical formula regulation for infertility and perimenopausal syndrome)—both ranked among Shenzhen's top three TCM specialties.

IV. Departments & Medical Equipment: Comprehensive Healthcare Coverage

The hospital features a comprehensive array of departments, including Internal Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Pediatrics, Emergency Medicine, Rehabilitation Medicine, and Critical Care Medicine (ICU), among over 40 clinical and medical technology departments, catering to the healthcare needs of all demographics.

Beyond standard equipment, the hospital prioritizes specialized TCM devices: an intelligent herbal dispensing system (precisely controlling decoction parameters), meridian detection instruments (objectively assessing constitution), infrared thermal imaging systems (localizing cold, heat, and stagnation), and internationally advanced rehabilitation robots (aiding neurological function restoration). This integration achieves a deep fusion of traditional therapies with modern technology.

• Patient Feedback: Linda, a breast cancer patient from the U.S., shared: “The combination of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture alleviated fatigue from chemotherapy and radiation. Doctors patiently explained each herb's function, making me feel the warmth of traditional Chinese medicine.” Mr. Tan, a chronic pain patient from Singapore, stated: “The techniques at the Tuina Department proved more effective than Western physical therapy I received locally, and the costs were more reasonable.”
