What to know

  • Open a pregnancy file (建卡) as early as you can — usually from about 6–9 weeks. See the 北医三院 walkthrough on this site.
  • The international medical department (国际医疗部) is the practical option if neither parent reads Chinese medical forms.
  • Partners are more often kept out of the delivery room than at private hospitals. Confirm the current rule when you open your file.
  • Appointments are usually booked through the WeChat official account 「北医三院服务号」. An English phone desk is available on weekday daytime hours.

An English-speaking doctor

This site does not list named obstetricians. Rosters change. Ask the international or special-needs desk for the current English-speaking attending list, then meet two doctors before you buy a package. At United Family and OASIS, doctor profiles are on the hospital site. See the translator guide if you will use a public ward.

Best for Haidian residents who want a top public NICU and can work with mixed English support.
