The Zhongshan Second Road campus and several outpatient points

The main campus’s Dongchuan Outpatient Clinic is at 106 Zhongshan Second Road, Yuexiu District, with switchboard 020-83827812. The official website lists several care points separately: Yingdong Outpatient at 96 Dongchuan Road, the East Ward Outpatient at 3 Chanshu Gang, Zhongshan Second Road, the Huifu Branch at 123 Huifu West Road, and the Hequn Outpatient at 17 Hequn First Road. They are not in the same building; go to the address on your appointment slip.

The campus consists of Weiling Building, the Inpatient and Outpatient Building, Yingdong Building, East Building 1, East Building 2, East Building 3, the Science and Education Building and others. The emergency department is on the side of the Inpatient and Outpatient Building, and Yingdong Building is near Dongchuan Road. On a first visit, look at the building layout map and then find the entrance by building name; coming from the Martyrs’ Park metro station, walking along Zhongshan Second Road to the Dongchuan Outpatient Clinic is more direct.

Appointments, documents and weekend clinics

The appointment number is 020-83882222, and registration is available through the official website, WeChat official account, 5G internet hospital, self-service machines, on site and in clinics; slots open 14 days ahead at 19:00 each evening and are divided into 30-minute periods. Registration accepts ID cards, social security cards with a photo, military officer cards, passports and other documents under the real-name system, so foreign visitors can register with a passport; first-time visitors still need to complete real-name verification at a window.

Weekend clinics open on Saturday and Sunday mornings 8:00–12:00 at Dongchuan, Yingdong, the East Ward and Concord outpatient clinics; on Saturday afternoons 14:00–17:00 only Dongchuan is open. Weekday evening clinics run Monday to Thursday 17:30–19:30 at Dongchuan and Concord. If you have a fever of 37.3°C or higher, go first to the fever clinic on the first floor of Weiling Building, next to the emergency department; do not go directly into regular outpatient care.

The Concord Medical Center and foreign patients

The Concord Medical Center is on the ninth floor of Yingdong Building and also uses floors 8–10 of the Administration Building. The center’s page gives its address as 96 Dongchuan Road, while the hospital’s main address is 106 Zhongshan Second Road; confirm the entrance with your appointment before arriving. The phone numbers are 020-83874283 and 020-87374289-8991 (doctor’s office). The center was established in 1996; its predecessor was the Sino-foreign cooperative Guangdong Concord Medical Center. Its English page states that its patients include foreign nationals; the hospital’s Chinese department page says it has received patients from more than 50 countries and regions.

The center’s page states that outpatient payment can be made in cash, by credit card, by check and by direct billing through partner companies, and that it handles insurance direct billing with many domestic and international insurers through a third-party administrator; whether a specific policy is on the list and what authorization is needed still has to be asked in advance. It is a separate center within the hospital, not the default arrangement for all regular outpatient care. At regular outpatient clinics on Zhongshan Second Road, do not assume English service or insurance direct billing.

The boundaries of emergency care

The main campus emergency department is at 106 Zhongshan Second Road and handles acute and critical cases; regular outpatient visits, health checks, chronic-disease follow-ups and insurance inquiries do not go through emergency. The Concord Medical Center page also mentions a “24-hour special appointment emergency,” but lists it as a booked medical service, so call before going; for a real emergency, still go to the main campus emergency department or dial 120.

The emergency entrance and the fever clinic are both at the main campus; if you have a fever of 37.3°C or higher, go first to the fever clinic on the first floor of Weiling Building, next to the emergency department. At night, follow on-site emergency directions and do not look for the daytime outpatient entrance.
