Recently, Am-Sino Healthcare hosted an International Healthcare Forum, centered around ‘The Effect of Innovative Health Technologies for Healthcare Institutions’. The event attracted top-tier attendees, including clinical experts from academia and healthcare, representatives from foreign consulates and embassies in Shanghai, media, and commercial insurance organizations.

Key figures from Am-Sino Healthcare included Mr. Wayne Wang, Chairman and CEO, Mr. Owen Zeng, COO, and Prof. Tao Duan, CMO, who provided insights into the company’s vision for integrating innovative health technologies. Am-Sino Healthcare's leadership in this area underlines its role as a provider of healthcare services in Shanghai.

Keynote highlights included:

• Medical Tourism: Immunotherapy in China — presented by Dr. Guimei Guo, Chief Physician at Xinhua Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine.

• AI Applications in China’s Healthcare System — presented by Prof. Michael Wang, Director of the Intelligent Healthcare Development Division at Renji Hospital.

• Obesity Epidemic: Global Health Crisis and a Call to Action — presented by Dr. Jane Lee, GP and CMO of Am-Sino Dingxiang Medical Center.

In delivering his opening remarks, Am-Sino Healthcare CMO, Dr. Duan Tao, reflected on the origins of Am-Sino Healthcare’s primary physician responsibility system, tracing back over 20 years to the Huashan Hospital International Department at Huashun Hospital. Initially focused on serving consulates and foreign business professionals with specialized maternal and women’s health services, this approach laid the foundation for Am-Sino Healthcare’s dedication to foreign patient care.

In many international settings, people typically consult their Family Doctor/General Practitioner (GP) first for non-emergency care. The GP, as the primary physician, often serves generations of a family, intimately understanding their health history, detecting illnesses early, managing chronic conditions, and coordinating referrals for serious diseases. This system has also earned a strong reputation among local families during more than 20 years of practice.

Am-Sino Healthcare integrates general family doctors, pediatricians, women’s health specialists, and various hospital department experts under its model of care. This model offers expatriates a one-stop, life-long and tailored healthcare service that aligns with their diverse health management needs.

Establishing a High-Standard International Healthcare System

Since launching in Shanghai more than 20 years ago, Am-Sino Healthcare has welcomed over 20,000 newborns and consistently leads in high-end private maternity deliveries. Among foreign-born babies in Shanghai, the majority were delivered at Am-Sino Healthcare. In response to the evolving needs of the clientele, the group has expanded services from women and children to include comprehensive family care, accelerating the creation of a high-standard international healthcare system.

The group continuously develops an international, exclusive medical team composed of experienced foreign doctors from diverse cultural backgrounds, as well as internationally trained and licensed physicians. Supported by nursing staff with extensive international healthcare experience and multilingual capabilities (including English, French, Japanese, and Italian), Am-Sino Healthcare eliminates language barriers to ensure high-quality medical care and an exceptional patient experience.

As the first private women’s and children’s healthcare institution in Asia to receive DNV international certification, Am-Sino Healthcare has implemented continuous improvement and training systems to maintain service quality at globally advanced standards. The group also partners with over 30 international commercial insurance companies to provide direct billing and 24-hour premium service to insured clients.

Am-Sino Healthcare Dingxiang Medical Center: One-Stop Services for Expats in Shanghai

Am-Sino Healthcare’s presence in Shanghai’s core districts covers both emergency treatment and long-term health management. A key location for international clientele is Am-Sino Healthcare Dingxiang Medical Center, situated conveniently on Huashan Rd. Founded in 2006, the medical center was the group’s first independently operated outpatient center, earning the trust of tens of thousands of families through its high-quality, specialized care.

In 2023, the Dingxiang Medical Center expanded its service scope and resource allocation to evolve from women and children’s healthcare into a comprehensive medical service, ushering in a new phase of Family Practice. Services now span multiple disciplines, including women’s health, pediatrics, family medicine, surgery, psychology, dermatology and cosmetic medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, gastroenterology, sports rehabilitation, dentistry, and ophthalmology. Multilingual services comprehensively protect family health and meet the diverse healthcare management needs of foreign nationals. The group aims to position the medical center as the benchmark for one-stop healthcare services for expatriates in Shanghai.
