Foshan Chancheng Hospital's TCM Hospital (中医院) was recommended among "2025 Guangdong's Strongest Departments" — an authoritative, data-driven evaluation organized by the Guangzhou Daily Media Group with the assistance of the Guangzhou Aiwenli Hospital Management Research Center. The recognition affirms Chancheng's standing as one of the province's leading centers for Traditional Chinese Medicine.
A Growing System of TCM Care
Once a single department, Chancheng's TCM division has grown into a comprehensive system spanning gynecology, internal medicine, pediatrics and oncology. Notable achievements include:
- TCM Gynecology — recognized as a Guangdong "13th Five-Year" TCM key specialty, a Foshan high-level key specialty, and a "14th Five-Year" high-level key specialty project.
- Integrative Medicine — named a Guangdong and Foshan "flagship" integrative-medicine department.
- Pediatric TCM and "Treat-Before-Illness" (治未病) — recognized as Foshan TCM characteristic specialties.
Research & Teaching
The TCM Hospital is a National Standardized Residency Training Base, a National Drug Clinical Trial Institution (GCP), and a Guangdong "flagship" hospital for Chinese-Western medicine collaboration. It hosts platforms such as the Foshan Endometriosis Research Platform, the Foshan Anti-Aging Engineering Technology Research Center, and a provincial anti-aging engineering research center.
"We combine the heritage of classical TCM with modern clinical research — from the 'kidney-tonifying and blood-activating' approach for endometriosis to herbal formulation innovation," the department shared.
A Destination for Integrative Care
For international patients, Chancheng offers a rare combination: authentic TCM expertise within a JCI-accredited, Grade III-A modern hospital. From the TCM Hall (国医馆) and acupuncture to rehabilitation and wellness, the program reflects the hospital's signature strength.
