About
The Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University is a comprehensive tertiary teaching hospital in Guangzhou's Haizhu District, on the south bank of the Pearl River. It is nationally recognized for allergy medicine — holding a national top-ten reputation ranking in the specialty — within a university hospital system famous throughout China for respiratory disease research and care.
History & scale
The hospital was founded in the early 1980s as Guangzhou Medical University expanded its clinical network, and has grown into a full teaching hospital with over a thousand beds serving the dense Haizhu district. It benefits from the university's national leadership in respiratory medicine, sharing research infrastructure and referral pathways across the affiliated hospital system.
Star specialties
The allergy department is the standout: comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of allergic rhinitis, asthma, food and drug allergy, urticaria and anaphylaxis, with standardized allergen testing and immunotherapy (desensitization) programs that draw patients from across South China — particularly valuable in the humid subtropical climate where dust mite allergy is near-universal. Respiratory medicine and neurology are strong supporting programs, the latter with a well-regarded epilepsy service, and the hospital covers the full range of internal medicine, surgery and pediatrics.
Achievements & recognition
The hospital holds a national top-ten specialty reputation ranking in allergy — one of only a handful of ranked allergy programs in China — and contributes to the Guangzhou Medical University system's international standing in airway disease research.
International services
Guangzhou's trading economy brings a steady stream of international residents, and the hospital sees foreign patients regularly, though consultations run in Chinese and Cantonese. Allergy care is well suited to visiting patients: testing and immunotherapy planning can be organized over a small number of visits, and our bilingual companions handle the interpretation and scheduling in between.
Why choose this hospital
Choose this hospital if allergy is disrupting your life in South China — persistent rhinitis, unexplained urticaria, food or drug reactions — and you want systematic testing and desensitization from one of the country's few nationally ranked allergy teams.
