About
The Capital Institute of Pediatrics in Beijing's Chaoyang District is a unique institution — a national pediatric research institute with its own affiliated children's hospital. It holds a national top-ten reputation ranking in pediatric surgery and has shaped Chinese child health for decades, including producing the national growth reference standards used to assess Chinese children.
History & scale
Founded in 1958 as China's dedicated pediatric research institute, it combines laboratory research in child health, genetics and infectious disease with a busy children's hospital serving Beijing's east side. Its research heritage includes the national surveys behind China's child growth and development standards, giving the institution an influence on pediatrics far beyond its own wards.
Star specialties
Pediatric surgery is nationally ranked, covering neonatal surgery for congenital malformations, pediatric urology, thoracic surgery and minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques adapted to small children. The cardiology service manages congenital heart disease screening and intervention. Beyond surgery, the institute is strong in pediatric respiratory medicine, child development and growth disorders, genetics and rare disease evaluation — backed by its research laboratories — and runs one of Beijing's busiest pediatric outpatient operations.
Achievements & recognition
The institute created China's national child growth reference standards, holds a top-ten reputation ranking in pediatric surgery, and uniquely combines national-level pediatric research with frontline clinical care in one organization.
International services
Beijing's international families use the institute for specialist pediatric problems beyond what private international clinics handle — congenital conditions, complex surgery, growth and development concerns. Services run in Chinese and pediatric consultations move fast; a bilingual companion who can capture everything said is particularly valuable when the patient is your child. We also help transfer records to and from international clinics.
