Why International Patients Choose BenQ Suzhou
Opened in 2013 by Taiwan’s BenQ Medical Group, the hospital combines hospital-grade medicine with hotel-style service — and is one of the few hospitals in China built with international patients in mind from day one.
Hospital-grade imaging fleet
Siemens 3.0T MRI, 256-slice spectral CT, digital PET-CT and a dedicated endoscopy unit — the same class of equipment used by leading academic medical centers, not a strip-mall screening clinic.
Private VIP floor, complete discretion
Checkups and consultations take place on a dedicated VIP floor, separate from general outpatient queues. A personal English-speaking coordinator escorts you through every station.
Same-day specialist referral
If screening finds something that needs attention, the specialist is in the same building — cardiology, gastroenterology, oncology and more, often seen the same day at no extra registration fee.
English reports accepted worldwide
Results include English translations, reference ranges and physician interpretation formatted for your home-country doctor. Imaging files are provided in standard DICOM format.
Easy to reach
Suzhou North & Suzhou stations are ~30 minutes from Shanghai Hongqiao by high-speed rail. Airport pickup from Shanghai Pudong or Hongqiao can be arranged.
Transparent hospital pricing
Package fees are the hospital’s own published rates, paid directly to the hospital. We confirm your exact quote in writing before you book — no markups, no surprises.
Weight-Loss & Metabolic Surgery with Prof. Lee Wei-Jei
BenQ Suzhou’s Metabolic & Bariatric Medical Center is led by Prof. Lee Wei-Jei — widely recognized as the “father of bariatric metabolic surgery in Asia.” International patients come to Suzhou for one reason: nowhere else in Asia can you have this operation performed by a surgeon with this track record, inside a JCI-accredited hospital, at these prices.
Prof. Lee Wei-Jei
Founding Director, Metabolic & Bariatric Medical Center
Named to the Stanford/Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists list (2025). Former President of the Asia-Pacific Bariatric Surgery Society and expert panelist for the International Diabetes Federation’s global guidelines on the surgical treatment of type-2 diabetes.

Procedures & typical hospital fees
| Procedure | How it works | Typical excess weight loss | Diabetes remission | Hospital fee (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeve Gastrectomy | Removes ~80% of the stomach | 60–70% at 5 years | 60–70% | $8,000–$10,000 |
| OAGB (Mini Bypass) | Single-anastomosis bypass — Prof. Lee’s signature procedure | 75–80% at 5 years | 80–85% | $10,000–$12,000 |
| Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass | Restrictive + malabsorptive, two connections | 70–80% at 5 years | 80–85% | $10,000–$13,000 |
| SADI-S / SASI | The strongest metabolic effect for high BMI | 80–85% at 3 years | 85–90% | $12,000–$14,000 |
| Revisional Surgery | Converts a prior failed procedure | Case-dependent | Case-dependent | $12,000–$16,000 |
Fees include the surgeon, anesthesia, operating room, hospital stay and standard post-operative monitoring, paid directly to the hospital. For comparison, US cash prices for the same operations typically run $15,000–$35,000. Final pricing depends on BMI, comorbidities and case complexity — confirmed in writing after your records are reviewed.
Know your odds before you commit: the ABCD score
Prof. Lee’s team scores every candidate on four factors before recommending surgery. A score of 6 or higher predicts an 80%+ chance of complete type-2 diabetes remission within two years. You receive this assessment — and a recommended procedure — before booking anything.
A — AgeYounger patients respond better
B — BMIBMI ≥30 with diabetes may qualify
C — C-peptideMeasures remaining pancreatic function
D — DurationDiabetes ≤5 years responds best

Frequently Asked Questions
Is BenQ a real full-service hospital or a private clinic?
A full tertiary general hospital: 1,500 beds, an emergency department, ICU, and more than 30 clinical departments, operated by Taiwan’s BenQ Medical Group and serving as a teaching hospital of Nanjing Medical University. It holds JCI accreditation — the same international quality standard used by leading hospitals in the US and Singapore.
Will the doctors speak English?
The International Medical Center has English-speaking staff, and your checkup or surgery journey includes an English-speaking coordinator at every step. All reports for international patients are delivered in English on request — we make sure this is arranged when we book for you.
How do I get there from Shanghai?
High-speed trains run from Shanghai Hongqiao to Suzhou every few minutes and take about 30 minutes. The hospital is in Suzhou New District (Huqiu District). We can arrange a private car from Shanghai Pudong or Hongqiao airport directly to the hospital or your hotel.
Can I combine a health checkup with a surgery consultation?
Yes — this is common. The checkup takes one day, and its imaging and lab results are immediately available to any BenQ specialist you see afterwards, including Prof. Lee’s bariatric team. Tell us what you want to cover and we will build the itinerary.
How do I pay?
Hospital fees are paid directly to BenQ Hospital. Our coordination services are quoted transparently and can be paid securely online by PayPal or card through our payment page. You receive everything in writing before any payment.
How far in advance should I book?
Health checkups: 2–3 weeks’ notice is usually enough. Surgery: allow 3–6 weeks for record review, the hospital’s invitation letter and your visa. Both can move faster when schedules allow — ask us.
