What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
Senior clinician at Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, ranked in the top 5 nationally for pediatrics in the Fudan Hospital Specialty Reputation Rankings (复旦医院专科声誉排行榜); the department runs one of western China's largest growth and endocrinology clinics, with established multidisciplinary protocols for congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) including 18F-DOPA PET imaging referral pathways and diazoxide management; member of the Chinese Pediatric Society Endocrinology and Genetic Metabolism Subspecialty Committee
What to expect
Congenital hyperinsulinism is rare and requires coordinated genetic testing, imaging, and surgical planning if focal disease is identified — Chongqing's center is one of the few mainland centers with experience across the full diagnostic pathway. For growth hormone evaluation, bring at least 12 months of height/weight records plus prior bone age X-rays; the clinic runs stimulation testing on-site.
