The hospital

This site is published by Chongqing West District Hospital, a tertiary general hospital at 301 Huafu Avenue North Section, Jiulongpo District, Chongqing. Every reference to the hospital on this site means that institution, and the treating team practises within it.

Advertising and claims

This site names no brand of product or device, quotes no prices, no doses, no percentages and no energy settings, and promises no outcome. It does not claim that a complication can be reversed without consequence, or that a second operation restores what was there before. It states the limits and the alternatives, and it names the physician responsible for the medical content.

Honesty requirements for this subject

Because a complication after surgery can be serious and, rarely, life-threatening, this site states plainly which findings need emergency care now, which need assessment the same day, and which are properly a matter for a telephone call. It does not soften the emergency list, does not present a further operation as a reset, and does not offer a telephone number or an opening time that could be wrong when it matters.
