Wuhan Hospitals

A Blend of History, Specialties, and Excellence

Wuhan, known as the "fourth - tier medical city in China" and the leading medical hub in central China, boasts a remarkable medical landscape deeply rooted in local culture and history. Even a childhood rhyme reflects its medical prowess: “If there's still a breath, rush to Tongji; if Tongji can't save, hurry to Union; if Union finds it tough, send to Zhongnan; if Zhongnan fails, then People's is the last hope.” Another saying goes “Three famous hospitals on Jiefang Avenue: Tongji, Union, and 161”, which once even graced Tongji Hospital's promotional materials, highlighting Wuhan's medical strength.
