Guangzhou Clifford Hospital

Why International Patients Choose Clifford Hospital

China's JCI Pioneer — Since 2003

Clifford Hospital became China's first JCI-accredited hospital in December 2003, setting the benchmark for international healthcare standards in the country. It has since maintained JCI certification alongside its Grade 3A status (China's highest hospital classification), GCP (National Drug Clinical Trial Base) designation, and recognition as a Guangdong Province Famous TCM Hospital.

This means: your medical records, treatment protocols, and care environment meet globally recognized patient safety and quality standards.

Integrative Medicine — The Clifford Difference

Unlike purely Western or purely Eastern hospitals, Clifford takes an integrative approach — combining:

• Modern Western medicine — surgery, advanced imaging (PET-CT, MRI, CT), laboratory diagnostics, endoscopy

• Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) — herbal medicine, acupuncture, tuina, moxibustion

• Natural therapies — ozone therapy, hyperthermia, stem cell treatments (within regulated clinical protocols)

This model is particularly valued by international patients seeking complementary care for chronic conditions, post-surgical recovery, oncology support, and preventive wellness.
