Check which entrance and address you need
The Qinglong Street main campus of Chengdu Third People's Hospital is in the city center. The hospital website gives the north gate address as 82 Qinglong Street and the south gate as 19 Yangshi Street. Different entrances at the same hospital may produce different navigation addresses. When arranging a ride, give the driver the campus, entrance and department shown in your appointment details rather than saying only “Third Hospital.” A photo of the hospital name wall on Qinglong Street can help identify the site, but it does not establish that a particular gate is open at all times.
The hospital's public site lists clinical departments including internal medicine and surgery, as well as centers for cardiology, gastroenterology and respiratory medicine. If you become unwell while traveling, choose a department based on your symptoms and medical advice, not simply the hospital's number of departments or reputation. The hospital updates outpatient schedules weekly. Check the schedule for the relevant date to see whether a particular doctor is seeing patients and whether appointments remain; do not plan a visit using an old photo or schedule.
Explain what care you need to the service center
As of November 10, 2026, the hospital homepage lists its 24-hour service center at 028-61312288 and its emergency department at 028-86638387. For routine care, you can first tell the service center whether this is a first or follow-up visit, that you will use a foreign passport, and which department you want to ask about. A service notice from October 2026 also lists a general service-center counter on the first floor of Building 1. If an online channel cannot register a foreign identity document, ask that counter how to proceed; do not use another person's real-name account to book.
The hospital website provides an appointment-booking link, but its public instructions do not fully explain how to create a visit card and link it online using a foreign passport. Before setting out, confirm registration requirements, booking options, the campus and where to check in after arrival. Bring your passport, previous test results and medication records. If you need help communicating, prepare a short written note with when symptoms began, the main problem, medications and allergies.
Outpatient care, day treatment and emergency care
The hospital has separate processes for regular outpatient visits, day-treatment facilities and emergency care. The photo shows an empty corridor in the day surgery center. The facility name does not mean visitors can walk in and request surgery that day; a treating doctor must decide whether treatment is needed and whether day surgery is appropriate. An outpatient appointment is not a substitute for emergency triage.
If your condition suddenly worsens or becomes life-threatening, call 120 for help. If you go to the hospital yourself, describe your symptoms and follow emergency triage rather than delaying care to wait for a particular outpatient doctor. Public information does not promise round-the-clock English service or direct billing with travel insurance. Confirm separately whether an interpreter can accompany you, how payment works and what documents your insurer requires. Keep diagnosis, payment and test records for continued care and an insurance claim.
