For International Patients

As China's most prominent nephrologist and an academician, Dr. Chen's clinic at PLA General Hospital is extremely competitive. International patients should apply at least 6-8 weeks in advance through the hospital's international medical department. She is particularly sought after for complex IgA nephropathy and difficult-to-diagnose glomerular diseases. As a military hospital, 301 Hospital has specific administrative procedures — the international liaison office can guide overseas patients through registration.
