What to expect
Dr. Fu's unique expertise in acute kidney injury and critical care nephrology makes her particularly valuable for complex, high-acuity cases. West China Hospital is consistently ranked among China's top 3 hospitals and is the dominant medical center for southwest China. Chengdu offers significantly lower living and medical costs compared to Beijing or Shanghai while maintaining top-tier medical standards. The hospital's international medical center provides appointment coordination, visa invitation letters, and accommodation guidance. Patients with AKI or rapidly progressing kidney disease should seek urgent referral pathways through the international office.
