Anesthesiology
The Anesthesiology Department is made up of experienced professionals and provides comprehensive care of all patients requiring regional or general anesthesia for therapeutic, diagnostic, and surgical procedures. We offer the full range of anesthesiology services. Our goal is to help patients forget any negative feelings they might associate with the medical procedures they undergo. The team has four full-time anesthesiologists and 15 part-time anesthesiologists carefully selected from reputable hospitals in Beijing. The team is on-duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Our Doctors
Pain Management Clinic
The Pain Management Clinic was established by the Anesthesiology medical team in October 2009. The clinic focuses on treating patients who have been suffering from chronic pain for more than three months. The Pain Management Clinic seeks to help those who suffer needlessly from pain to improve their quality of life and to escape the damage that could be done by oral pain medication.
The clinic offers only the highest quality service. Our doctors are always on-call and available for consultations should complications arise from treatment. Consultants from leading medical institutions in Beijing are also happy to lend their services to BJU patients. We also make sure to consider patients’ input in planning the course of treatment and to provide post-treatment follow-up care. We insist on basing our services on a thorough understanding of each patient’s unique situation, and we ensure that our treatments are non-addictive.

- Worn or torn cartilage
