Is Dr. Li Peng’s expertise suitable for my specific breast condition?
Dr. Li Peng specializes in the surgical management of breast diseases, including mastectomy and breast-conserving surgery, together with postoperative upper-limb function and lymphedema prevention.

How can an international patient request an appointment with Dr. Li Peng at PUMCH?
MedBridgeNZ can coordinate the process from an initial remote specialist review to an in-person appointment request at PUMCH. We help organize and translate records, transfer client-authorized documents, communicate with the relevant hospital office, and assist with appointment scheduling. For patients proceeding to Beijing, we can also support medical invitation or visa-document coordination, travel planning, and non-clinical bilingual administrative assistance. Appointment dates remain subject to hospital scheduling, so beginning with complete records can reduce avoidable delays.
How are language differences managed during the remote review and hospital visit?
