International healthcare information
Dedicated international patient departments are less common in Chongqing than in Beijing or Shanghai. Confirm English-language assistance, interpreter availability, registration requirements and payment methods with the hospital before travelling, or send an enquiry and China Medical will ask on your behalf.
- Airports
- Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (CKG)
- Getting around
- Chongqing has an extensive metro and monorail network with bilingual station signage, though the city's hillside terrain means walking routes can be steep. Taxis and ride-hailing are widely used; carry your destination written in Chinese.
- Accommodation considerations
- The Yuzhong peninsula and Jiangbei area are practical bases, with hotels close to the main teaching hospitals and good metro links.
