The main campus, Qixia Road, and the Laoshan International Clinic

The main campus of Qingdao Haici Medical Group is Qingdao Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Qingdao Haici Hospital), at 4 Renmin Road, Shibei District. The group also has a West Campus (3 Jiaxiang Road, Shinan District; Shandong Qingdao Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine), a Pingdu Campus (38 Hangzhou Road, Pingdu), an Acupuncture and Tuina Rehabilitation Center at 18 Qixia Road, Shinan District, and the Laoshan District International Clinic at 55 Yinchuan East Road, Laoshan District.

These campuses are spread across Shibei, Shinan, Laoshan, and Pingdu; they are not in the same building. For the TCM main campus, acupuncture and tuina, or rehabilitation, go first to 4 Renmin Road or 18 Qixia Road; the Laoshan District International Clinic is at 55 Yinchuan East Road, some distance from the main campus. The main campus appointment and inquiry number is 0532-83777800, with service hours 8:00–17:00; the Laoshan District International Clinic number is 0532-66882222, also 8:00–17:00.

TCM strengths in acupuncture, tuina, and preventive treatment

Haici's TCM strengths are concentrated in acupuncture, tuina, and preventive treatment. The hospital says its Appropriate TCM Technology Center combines the outpatient techniques of the Preventive Treatment Department, Acupuncture Department, and Tuina Department. It offers more than twenty therapies, including acupuncture, governor-vessel moxibustion, umbilical therapy, tuina, auricular acupressure, acupoint application, herbal steam therapy, acupoint catgut embedding, intradermal needling, floating needling, fire needling, medicated cupping, gua sha, wax therapy, and needle-knife therapy, emphasizing “prevent illness before it arises, prevent an existing illness from worsening, and prevent relapse after recovery.”

The Qixia Road campus also has an acupuncture and tuina department and a rehabilitation department, with appointment numbers 0532-83720935 and 0532-83721869. The group's main campus is a tertiary Grade A comprehensive TCM hospital; the hospital says it has seven national-level key specialties and, as a national base for international TCM cooperation, has partnerships with more than ten countries. This is institutional and disciplinary background, not an indication that every doctor can see patients in English.

Laoshan District International Clinic: the website confirms only an address and phone number

For services to the public, the official website lists the Laoshan District International Clinic as a separate campus, but that campus page has only a photo of the building, an address, and a phone number. It does not describe which departments see patients there, who the services are for, languages, payment methods, or insurance arrangements. The name “International Clinic” alone does not establish that it has 24-hour English-language general practice, direct insurance billing, or home visits.

The official website also does not say how foreign patients create a record with a passport, whether online appointments support passports, or whether English-speaking guides are available. On a first visit, call the main campus or the Laoshan District International Clinic first and explain your passport, symptoms, the department you want, and your language needs; for acupuncture and tuina, call the Qixia Road campus numbers directly. Do not assume that services the official website does not describe are available.

Emergency and visit boundaries

The Haici main campus is a tertiary Grade A comprehensive TCM hospital, but the Laoshan District International Clinic page gives only an 8:00–17:00 appointment and inquiry phone line; it does not state 24-hour service or emergency care. At night, on weekends, or in an emergency, do not rely on this number; call 120 or go to the nearest hospital's emergency department.

TCM treatment requires an in-person consultation and pattern diagnosis, and acupuncture and tuina are not suitable for everyone. If you have a bleeding tendency, are taking anticoagulants, have a skin infection, have a fever, or have acute pain of unknown cause, explain your medical history and medications first. The official website gives no unified information on prices, course length, or insurance coverage; follow what the hospital tells you on the day. The campuses, phone numbers, and confirmable service boundaries above were verified on 11 November 2026.
