Hospital Overview

Xinhua Hospital (上海交通大学医学院附属新华医院) was founded in 1958 as “the first comprehensive hospital independently designed and built by Shanghai after the founding of the People’s Republic of China” (hospital about page, 2026-07-07). It is a Grade 3A hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (hospital about page, 2026-07-07). The hospital operates more than 2,090 open beds, over 2,500 staff, and 63 clinical and technical departments and platforms (hospital about page, 2026-07-07). It holds 11 National Clinical Key Specialties (SJTU medical school page, 2026-07-07).

The hospital operates from two campuses: the Yangpu campus (控江路1665号) and the Fengxian campus (奉贤区东方美谷大道6688号) (official homepage, 2026-07-07). The Fengxian campus is located in the Dongfang Meigu (东方美谷) medical-aesthetics industry cluster zone, though the hospital’s official website does not list dedicated aesthetic medicine services beyond verified plastic surgery.

Jinglang International Medical Department

In September 2024, Xinhua Hospital’s Jinglang International Medical Department (新华镜朗国际医疗部) was designated a Shanghai Municipal Public Hospital International Medical Tourism Pilot Unit (上海市公立医院国际医疗旅游试点单位) (department article, 2026-07-07). According to that official hospital article, the Jinglang department “has built a one-stop international medical tourism pilot service model for cross-border patients covering visa support, payment settlement, and multi-language services” (原文: “新华镜朗国际医疗部打造了跨境就医患者从签证支持、结算服务、多语种服务等一站式国际旅游医疗试点的服务模式”, source, 2026-07-07). The article further states the department has served patients from Russia, India, Malaysia, Spain, the United States, France, Australia, and more than ten other countries (source, 2026-07-07).

The official article highlights the department’s medical strengths in complex scoliosis treatment, fetal-stage paediatric disease intrauterine diagnosis and treatment, retinoblastoma, and paediatric surgery (source, 2026-07-07). These are specialist paediatric and surgical areas; patients with other needs should confirm service scope with the department directly.

Important note on the Jinglang department’s contact details and language roster: The official hospital website does not list a dedicated phone number, email, or specific language roster for the Jinglang International Medical Department. The “multi-language services” claim is from the official hospital article, but the exact languages offered have not been independently verified from a dedicated department page. Patients should contact the hospital via its main online channels or the special-needs clinic page (特需门诊须知) to confirm language support and direct Jinglang contact details before booking.

Relevant Visits

Xinhua Hospital’s Jinglang International Medical Department is a good fit for patients whose coordination needs centre on paediatric specialist care, complex surgical conditions, or multi-specialty consultation at an SJTU-affiliated centre holding a government-recognised medical-tourism pilot status. As a coordination service, we assist with appointment logistics, document translation, and interpreter arrangements — all clinical decisions rest with the hospital team.
