The Neural Medicine Department of Beijing United Family Hospital of Integrative Medicine is a comprehensive medical center with a multidisciplinary focus. The department includes neurosurgery, neurology, and neuro electrophysiology and works closely with the ICU and Rehabilitation Medicine Department to carry out all-around neuro medical services, including neuro-critical illness treatment and neuro-rehabilitation. Our department is also an open medical academic platform. We have established different cooperation models with experts from multiple top tier hospitals in Beijing to provide various medical services such as consultation and surgery. Meet the individualized needs of different patients.

The department has 5 full-time senior doctors and more than 20 part-time experts, all from Beijing’s top hospitals, ensuring that every patient receives professional diagnosis, treatment, and services. Dr. Chang Pengfei, the Director of the Center, has 40 years’ experience working in neurosurgery in China and abroad. The Center adopts an efficient and multidisciplinary consultation (MDT) system to provide individualized diagnosis and treatment services and is committed to building an international platform for clinical neural medicine.
