Patient reviews
Undisclosed patient
[Condition]: Varicose Veins [Patient Experience]: I have had varicose veins in my legs for several years, and recently they began to feel heavy and achy. I underwent a minimally invasive procedure in the vascular surgery department and was able to walk on the same day. The surgical skill was exceptional, leaving virtually no visible scarring on my legs. The process from outpatient consultation to hospitalization was seamless, and the medical staff were professional and compassionate. The appearance of my legs has improved, and the aching sensation has resolved. I am very satisfied with the treatment outcome and highly recommend this service.
Undisclosed patient
[Disease Name]: Rectal cancer [Patient Experience]: I specifically sought treatment from President Gu Jin based on his reputation. My family was very anxious following the diagnosis of rectal cancer. President Gu was extremely patient, provided a detailed analysis of the condition, and developed a sphincter-preserving surgical plan. The surgery was successful, removing the tumor while preserving physiological function. During the hospitalization, the medical and nursing team was professional and attentive, and the ward rounds were thorough. I am currently recovering well post-surgery. I am deeply grateful for President Gu's medical expertise, which has given us hope.
Undisclosed patient
[Condition]: Knee Osteoarthritis [Patient Experience]: I have suffered from knee arthritis for many years, and walking was very painful. I underwent knee replacement surgery performed by Director Guan Zhenpeng. Director Guan is highly skilled and provided clear preoperative explanations that addressed my concerns. The results of the surgery were immediate, and I was able to begin rehabilitation exercises the day after the procedure. The physicians in the orthopedic ward were very kind and attentive to elderly patients. The treatment outcome exceeded my expectations and resolved a significant health issue for me.
Undisclosed patient
[Disease Name]: Breast Fibroadenoma [Experience]: I sought medical attention after discovering a breast lump, which caused me significant anxiety. The breast specialist performed a thorough palpation and recommended a minimally invasive vacuum-assisted excision. The procedure was quick, leaving only a small puncture site. During the surgery, the doctor provided constant reassurance to help me stay calm, which was very comforting. The postoperative pathology results were benign, providing great relief. The Breast Surgery Department at Shougang Hospital demonstrates high clinical proficiency, effectively treating the condition while remaining attentive to the patient's emotional well-being.
