Patient reviews

I suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear while skiing last year, which caused me significant anxiety. I made an appointment with the Department of Sports Medicine at Peking University Third Hospital. The diagnosis was precise, and the minimally invasive surgery was performed with exceptional skill. Throughout the treatment process, the doctor was approachable and patiently addressed all my questions regarding post-operative rehabilitation. My recovery has progressed smoothly; the stability of my knee has been fully restored, and my athletic performance metrics have essentially returned to normal. I have not experienced any further episodes of the knee giving way. I am sincerely grateful for the medical care I received.

After three years of trying to conceive without success, I was diagnosed with infertility caused by polycystic ovary syndrome. I came to the Reproductive Center of Peking University Third Hospital based on its reputation. The physicians demonstrated excellent expertise and devised a highly precise ovulation induction protocol for me. At each follow‑up, the doctors were very patient, with a gentle and meticulous attitude, which greatly alleviated my mental stress. Through careful management and treatment during this period, I was finally confirmed pregnant last week. All prenatal test indicators are normal, and the baby is developing well. I am grateful.

My mother suffers from severe spinal-type cervical spondylosis, with a pronounced feeling of walking on cotton, and her condition was critical. Fortunately, we were able to schedule an appointment with an orthopedic specialist. The surgeon's technique was highly skilled, and the cervical decompression and fusion surgery was well-controlled in terms of risk. Both pre- and post-operative, the doctor was very responsible; during ward rounds, he showed great care and patiently inquired about her sensations. On the second day after surgery, the compression symptoms were immediately relieved, the weakness in both lower limbs completely disappeared, and she is now able to get out of bed and move independently. Her recovery far exceeds expectations. We are extremely grateful!

I visited the Department of Gastroenterology at Peking University Third Hospital due to chronic stomach pain and was diagnosed with a Helicobacter pylori infection complicated by a severe gastric ulcer. The doctor was experienced and prescribed medication precisely. The gastroscopy was performed gently, causing almost no pain. During the consultation, the doctor's attitude was excellent; he answered all my dietary questions with great patience and demonstrated high medical ethics. Following standard quadruple therapy and dietary management, my symptoms of stomach pain and acid reflux have completely disappeared. A recent follow-up breath test came back negative, and the gastric mucosa has healed well. I am very satisfied.
