Xinqiao Hospital (陆军军医大学新桥医院), the Second Affiliated Hospital of the Army Medical University, is ranked #98 nationally on the Fudan Hospital Ranking. It is nationally recognised for interventional pulmonology and respiratory medicine, and runs a high-volume cardiovascular intervention programme and an advanced spinal surgery department. With over 2,800 beds, it maintains an International Medical Department with English-capable coordination. Whether it is the appropriate option for your situation depends on your diagnosis and objectives — China Care helps you work that out before you travel.
Xinqiao Hospital (陆军军医大学新桥医院) is the Army Medical University's Second Affiliated Hospital, founded in 1944. Originally the Nationalist Army Hospital, it was reorganised as the Southwest Military Region General Hospital in 1950 before joining the Army Medical University system. Today it is a comprehensive Grade 3A military hospital with more than 2,800 beds.
Xinqiao is nationally recognised for respiratory medicine — particularly interventional pulmonology including electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy, endobronchial ultrasound, and airway stenting. It is also a referral centre for complex airway disease and lung cancer diagnosis. Its cardiovascular programme is high-volume in interventional cardiology, and its spinal surgery department covers degenerative, deformity, and minimally invasive techniques. The hospital's structured military medical protocols support disciplined, multidisciplinary care.
For international patients, Xinqiao operates an International Medical Department that coordinates English-capable appointments, medical record translation, and international billing. China Care complements this by providing end-to-end coordination — from initial case review and department matching to on-the-ground interpretation and logistics throughout your stay in Chongqing.
Xinqiao is nationally recognised for advanced bronchoscopic techniques including electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy, endobronchial ultrasound, and airway stenting. It is a referral centre for complex airway disease and lung cancer diagnosis, drawing patients from across southwest China. For airway and lung conditions requiring advanced endoscopy, this depth is difficult to match in the region.
Xinqiao runs a high-volume interventional cardiology programme, strong in complex coronary intervention, structural heart disease, and peripheral vascular work. Its spinal surgery department covers degenerative spine disease, deformity correction, and minimally invasive techniques — complementary surgical strengths within one hospital system.
Chongqing is a major western China hub with direct flights from most large Chinese cities and growing international connectivity. Treatment costs at Xinqiao are generally lower than equivalent care in Beijing or Shanghai for comparable clinical quality. For patients focused on respiratory, cardiac, or spinal conditions, Xinqiao is often a practical and cost-effective choice. China Care helps you evaluate the fit before travel.
