Editor's note

The ranking of Chinese hospitals recently released has attracted widespread attention. The editor also received a submission from a senior oncologist and wanted to share his experience with our readers and friends.

I always think of the medical students’ oath: health is the basis of entrusting life... So it is undoubtedly a big question for the people, especially patients, where to see a doctor and who to whom to whom to be.

It is November again, and the ranking of Fudan University 's Chinese hospitals has been released!

(The list is authorized by the Fudan University Hospital Management Institute, and is jointly released by the Health World, Tencent Medical Dictionary and Tencent Cloud Medical jointly released and announced

From the website, we can see the introduction of the rankings:

Reputation Ranking of China Hospitals and Specialties, a public welfare project aimed at helping discipline construction, carried out by an independent third-party hospital management academic institution, and announced the results of the previous year in November every year, covering more than 40 clinical specialties.

More than 4,000 experts from the Chinese Medical Association and Chinese Medical Association participated in the review and voting, and the results were combined with hospital SCI and scientific research awards to form the final list.

In other words, this is a list evaluated by experts. Experts know the inside story of the medical circle better than ordinary people, know many hospitals have had and are happening stories, and can better evaluate their status in the fields of medical care, teaching and scientific research. Therefore, the peer review system has always been an recognized effective way to evaluate professional standards in the academic community. US-China Jiahe has been committed to oncology specialties for decades, so let’s take a look at the oncology specialties list first.

A brief statistics. The hospital locations on the list include Beijing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Tianjin. The top 5 are all first-tier cities or municipalities. They have not changed since the first release of the list in 2009 (the order has changed a little). Behind are the provincial capitals in Sichuan, Shandong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu. No need to complain, after all, this is consistent with the distribution of my country's population, economy, and even transportation hubs, and it is the medical center in the surrounding area.

Malignant tumors are a major event in life for every patient and every family. They want to find the best hospital and the most authoritative doctor. But even if these hospitals on the list have full firepower, how many patients can they treat? Compared with the more than 4 million new tumor patients who have been reported and 10 to 20 million follow-up visits nationwide every year, there is always a shortage of supply.

Patients run to a large hospital and meet the big experts, and they can communicate for a few minutes. However, when you run back and forth, registering and queuing will always delay a few days; after the experts see a doctor, they have to queue up for a check-up, and then find an expert again... This process often takes ten days and half a month and may not be able to be done. This is the reason for the development of Internet medical in recent years, and it is also a problem that Internet hospitals can solve.

Let’s see what tips are available from the process of seeing a doctor.

You can go to the hospital at your doorstep for the first time for the first visit. It is best to be able to confirm the diagnosis. If the diagnosis is not confirmed because of the technology or there are questions about the diagnosis, you need to find an expert from a large hospital. If you can't make an appointment, you can go to an Internet hospital to ask a doctor assistant to find a solution. If you have worked in the hospital for many years, they can always help everyone.

is treated after diagnosis. We know the three major methods of tumor treatment, surgery, radiotherapy and drug treatment. All majors are constantly having new technologies, new research and new discoveries. The development of junior colleges is too fast, and doctors can only continue to deepen their efforts in their own fields, and it is difficult to take into account the progress of more departments.

So the first thing patients have to face is which department to go to.Modern medicine has developed to precise treatment, and patients do not know the plan, and even experts themselves are not sure of it. They need to do a multidisciplinary consultation for and discuss together. The hospitals on the list are all very well-disciplined hospitals. Experts from various departments discuss the condition, question and argue, and finally summarize the most reasonable diagnosis and treatment suggestions so that patients will not take detours. Multidisciplinary consultation on tumors is also a service provided by many Internet hospitals. is also one of the special services of the US-China Jiahe Internet Hospital . Unlike the multidisciplinary discussions in the hospital, patients and families can attend the discussion and ask questions. If the patient needs it, we can also invite doctors from authoritative American hospitals to consult, which is even more impossible for hospital outpatient clinics.

After determining the plan, different strategies should be found at different treatment stages.

Surgery depends on doctor's skills and experience. The team cooperates well, especially complex surgery, which is worth asking experts to do, and the effect is more guaranteed.

radiotherapy equipment varies greatly. There are many types of radiotherapy technologies used. Each has its own advantages. Only in these hospitals can one choose the most suitable one according to the condition. Therefore, if you do radiotherapy, you still have to go to a large hospital in person.

In the three stages of diagnosis, surgery and radiotherapy, the hospital rankings are guiding, and it is necessary to choose a hospital with a good reputation. Even if you cannot go in person, you can consult experts through Internet hospitals, determine the plan, and follow-up after diagnosis.

Regarding drug treatment, my country's management is very strict. Medicines used at all levels are produced by regular pharmaceutical factories. The same drugs are strictly controlled, and there is no difference. Therefore, medication does not necessarily mean going to the best hospital. As long as you have determined the plan, ask the nearby hospital, the pharmacy has medicine, and the doctor has experience in using medicine, you can be treated with confidence. (To add, anti-tumor drugs are developed very quickly. There are no approved drugs in mainland China. Now they can be treated through consultation with foreign, Hong Kong and Macao doctors.)

so we know the significance of this list to the patient population. For diagnosis and surgery, you need to go to a large hospital; for radiotherapy, it is best to go to a large hospital; for drug treatment, you can go to a hospital near your home; for re-examination, it is convenient to get nearby; if you have small problems in daily life, it is not worth going to the hospital but it also needs to be solved, what should you do? You can join the WeChat group of patients with different diseases of . In addition to communicating with patients, doctors who are a nurse in tumors can answer questions and answer questions every day.

written in the last

list, each province has good hospitals that can provide standardized medical services, but the difference is not big. There is no need to be superstitious about hospitals on the list. Their advantage is to treat difficult and severe diseases. Tumors are prevalent in recent years and are already a common disease. Most tertiary hospitals can carry out good treatments. We don’t have to be afraid of cancer. We can choose more calmly. In addition to examining scale, equipment and other hardware, hospitals that care about patients and medical staff are always patient and empathetic, so that patients and their families trust, comfort and safety should also be "on the list".

Hospital ranking is just a reference. I wish every patient can meet a good doctor, work together and recover smoothly!

I hope everyone with cancer in the world can be cured!
