Overview & History

Seventy years of serving China's leadership and military forces — and now open to international patients seeking the pinnacle of Chinese medical expertise.

The PLA General Hospital (Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital), universally known as "301 Hospital," was founded in 1953 as the premier medical institution of the Chinese military. Headquartered at Fuxing Road in Haidian District, it has served as the designated healthcare facility for China's senior leadership for over seven decades, making it the recipient of extraordinary state investment and talent concentration.

Today the hospital operates eight medical centres — including the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth Medical Centres and the Jingdong Medical Zone — with a combined capacity exceeding 10,000 beds. Its research output, technological capabilities, and breadth of clinical expertise are matched by very few hospitals globally. The First Medical Centre (Fuxing Road campus) remains the flagship and the most commonly accessed by international patients.

Patient Testimonials

"I required a complex liver resection that two US hospitals declined as too risky. The surgical team at 301 Hospital performed a laparoscopic procedure and I was discharged in 8 days. The VIP ward felt like a five-star hotel, and the Medicsino coordinator was invaluable."
Chen W. San Francisco, USA — Liver Resection
★★★★★
"The executive health screening programme at 301 is the most thorough I've experienced anywhere in the world. I came for a routine check — they found and treated a stage-one polyp that could have become serious. Worth every penny."
Ahmad R. Dubai, UAE — Executive Health Screening
★★★★★
"My mother's kidney transplant was coordinated entirely by Medicsino. From initial contact to discharge took 11 weeks. The coordination, clinical quality, and post-discharge support exceeded every expectation."
