A newer tertiary hospital in Bao’an, western Shenzhen, with its International Medical Department occupying the top floor of the inpatient tower overlooking Qianhai Bay. In 2025 it opened Shenzhen’s first combined public-insurance and commercial-insurance patient service centre, and began accepting the Hong Kong Elderly Health Care Voucher in August 2025.

What to expect as an international patient

As a comprehensive tertiary hospital, this institution is a sensible first destination when the diagnosis is unclear or when several specialties need to be involved at once. Multidisciplinary case review is standard practice, and the international department coordinates between departments on your behalf rather than leaving you to book each one separately.

Shenzhen sits directly across the border from Hong Kong, which makes it the most convenient entry point if you are arriving via Hong Kong International Airport or crossing at Luohu or Futian. The city's hospitals are newer than Guangzhou's, with shorter queues and denser hotel coverage within walking distance.
