Dr. Shan’s clinical focus includes endometrial, cervical and ovarian cancers, pelvic tumor imaging assessment, organ-sparing surgery and complex pelvic tumor resection. MedBridgeNZ can coordinate the preparation and translation of imaging, pathology reports, prior treatment records and a focused question list for a remote specialist review.

How can I request a PUMCH appointment and medical travel coordination from outside China?
MedBridgeNZ assists international patients with appointment request communication, medical-record preparation, translation coordination and client-authorized document transfer. After the relevant review or appointment request is accepted, we can also coordinate medical invitation or visa-document support, travel and accommodation planning, and non-clinical bilingual administrative assistance in Beijing.
