Who We Are

Jiahui Health has created state-of-the-art Same Day Surgery Centers and fully-equipped operating suites and recovery rooms with individualized care in a safe environment. These centers allowed our highly skilled surgeons to perform low risk surgery and safe procedures, to allow quicker recovery and same day discharge where you can recover in the comfort of your own home. Same day discharge after surgery has been well accepted among the international community and it has been shown to be very safe. 

Currently, more than 50% of all surgery in the United States is performed at Same Day Surgery Centers. We will guide you through the whole process with detailed instructions and make certain that it is safe for you to leave. Our goal is to provide you quality care in the safest way.  

Services We Provide     

There is a Same Day Surgery Center located at both Jiahui International Hospital and Jiahui Health (Yangpu). We currently offer the following surgical specialties:

Personalized Environment     

We have a specialized center, making it possible to devote individual attention and time to you. Our whole team consisting of anesthesiologists, surgeons, and surgical nurses who will be available to answer any questions you have.  

Children are special, and to make them feel more relaxed, we encourage you to discuss the surgery with them the day before. One parent may stay with the child before surgery starts and may join them again after surgery in the recovery area.

Our goal is to provide you surgical care by our highly skilled surgeons and staff in a comfortable and relaxing environment, and to have you go home safely on the same day.
