What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
Senior member of the bariatric and metabolic surgery program at Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital, the institution that ran some of China's earliest dedicated metabolic surgery clinics jointly with the affiliated National Metabolic Disease Clinical Research Center; committee member of the Chinese Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (CSMBS); co-author of the Chinese clinical guidelines for surgical treatment of type 2 diabetes; published research on long-term diabetes remission, hypoglycemia, and nutritional outcomes after gastric bypass in Chinese cohorts
What to expect
A strong choice for patients whose primary indication is type 2 diabetes rather than weight loss alone, including those with BMI in the 27.5–32.5 range. The center co-manages cases with the hospital's endocrinology department, which itself has one of the largest diabetes outpatient volumes in China. <!-- TODO: needs second source -->
