Cardiovascular disease and complex heart care
Cardiovascular care is one of the hospital’s longest-established strengths. Its cardiology department treats coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, heart failure, high blood pressure, structural heart disease and adult congenital heart disease. For patients who may need an intervention, the department performs catheter-based treatments such as coronary angioplasty, rhythm ablation and procedures for heart valves. Cardiac surgery works alongside cardiology on valve repair or replacement, coronary bypass surgery, aortic disease and complex congenital heart conditions. The hospital also holds the qualifications required to carry out heart transplantation. This combination matters when a patient needs a decision between medication, an interventional procedure and open or minimally invasive surgery.
Lung cancer and thoracic oncology
The Guangdong Lung Cancer Institute brings medical oncologists and thoracic surgeons together to manage lung nodules, early-stage lung cancer and more advanced disease. Treatment decisions can draw on pathology, tumour stage and molecular testing, including whether a targeted drug or immunotherapy may be appropriate. The pulmonary surgery team offers thoracoscopic and robot-assisted procedures, such as segmentectomy or lobectomy, as well as surgery for selected complex chest tumours. Medical oncology teams also work on precision treatment and treatment resistance. The hospital describes participation in lung cancer research and multidisciplinary discussions, but entry into a particular trial or access to a specific medicine depends on the individual case and current programme criteria.
Kidney disease and peritoneal dialysis
Nephrology is another distinctive programme. The department manages chronic kidney disease, immune-related kidney disorders and patients who need dialysis. It is particularly known for peritoneal dialysis, a treatment in which the abdominal lining is used to filter waste and excess fluid. Its long-running peritoneal dialysis service helped establish what is often called the “Guangzhou Model” of care, and the hospital reports developing a smart peritoneal dialysis centre. This may be relevant to patients looking for a structured approach to dialysis education, follow-up and ongoing kidney care, rather than a single short procedure.
Other complex conditions and multidisciplinary care
Beyond these three headline areas, the hospital has specialist services in neuroscience, geriatric medicine, pancreatic disease and emergency and critical care. It is authorised to perform heart, lung, liver and kidney transplantation. These services may become relevant when a patient has multiple diagnoses or complications that make treatment more difficult. Their inclusion here reflects the hospital’s documented capabilities; whether a service is suitable or available for a particular international patient requires a specialist review of the medical record.

International patients can access a dedicated service pathway through the hospital’s Concord
hospital’s East District and combines general medical coordination with access to specialist teams. In its April 2026 announcement, the hospital reported two general outpatient units, 23 individual consultation rooms and three inpatient wards with 54 rooms, together with diagnostic imaging, endoscopy, laboratory, pharmacy and inpatient services. This is a separate, more coordinated route from an ordinary public outpatient appointment.
The hospital states that the international centre offers appointment coordination, multilingual interpretation around the clock, individual patient assistance and multidisciplinary consultations. Its published services also include support with insurance administration and direct settlement arrangements through partner insurers or third-party administrators. Importantly, direct billing is not automatically available under every policy: eligibility, authorisation, covered services and any deposit or advance payment should be confirmed for the patient’s own plan before treatment.
Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital was included in Guangdong’s first group of international medical service pilot hospitals in 2026. This designation supports the development of dedicated international services, but it does not, by itself, guarantee the availability of a particular doctor, interpreter or procedure on a chosen date. For a planned cross-border visit, the most reliable starting point is to share the diagnosis and existing records with the receiving team so the hospital can confirm the appropriate department and service arrangements.
The following doctors are selected because the hospital’s official expert pages identify their roles and areas of clinical or research expertise. They are examples of the hospital’s specialist teams, not a confirmed appointment roster.
Prof. Zhuang Jian
Cardiac Surgery · Complex Congenital Heart Disease
Professor Zhuang is listed by the hospital as a chief expert in cardiac surgery and director of the Guangdong Cardiovascular Center. His work focuses on complex congenital heart disease, including difficult cases involving infants and children. The official biography also describes his work in prenatal and postnatal cardiac care and fetal cardiac interventions.
Prof. Wu Yilong
Lung Cancer · Precision Oncology
Professor Wu is identified by the hospital as its chief expert and honorary director of the Guangdong Lung Cancer Institute. His research and clinical work have concentrated on precision treatment for lung cancer, particularly molecularly guided therapies for patients with EGFR-mutated disease. His inclusion reflects leadership and specialist expertise; a current individual consultation must be confirmed separately.
Prof. Zhong Wenzhao
Thoracic Surgery · Lung Cancer Surgery
Professor Zhong is a thoracic oncology surgeon and director of the Guangdong Lung Cancer Institute, according to his hospital profile. His areas of work include minimally invasive lung cancer surgery, the management of lung nodules and multidisciplinary treatment planning for locally advanced disease. He is particularly relevant to cases in which the key question is whether surgery has a useful role alongside other cancer treatments.
Prof. Yang Jinji
Lung Cancer · Targeted Therapy and Treatment Resistance
Professor Yang is a medical oncologist whose hospital biography focuses on precision lung cancer treatment and translational research. His stated interests include MET-related molecular abnormalities, small-cell lung cancer arising after treatment transformation, and the use of lung cancer organoids in research. The department also describes a multidisciplinary approach that considers the psychological needs of patients receiving cancer treatment.
Prof. Yu Xueqing
Nephrology · Peritoneal Dialysis
Professor Yu is described by the hospital as a leading figure in nephrology and in the development of its peritoneal dialysis programme. His work is closely associated with the centre’s long-term approach to dialysis treatment and the “Guangzhou Model”. This background is particularly relevant for patients seeking expert assessment of chronic kidney disease and peritoneal dialysis management.
