About the hospital
About Second Xiangya Hospital
Second Xiangya Hospital was established in 1958. Central South University's profile identifies national clinical research centers for metabolic and mental-health conditions, alongside disciplines including cardiothoracic surgery, neurology and ENT. It is a comprehensive university hospital rather than a single-disease center. The institution should be distinguished from Xiangya Hospital and Third Xiangya Hospital.
