Each day, VNCH receives 4,000 – 5,000 outpatients and treats more than 2,000 inpatients. The majority of whom are children with serious and complicated illnesses. Therefore, I hope that this visit will lay foundation for future cooperation on training, medical examination and treatment and scientific research with the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, which contributes to improving the quality of children’s health care.”

Responding to Associate Professor.Dr.Tran Minh Dien’s statement, Prof.Dr.Chen Junqiang happily shared that it was the 4th time he visited Hanoi and the first time to visit Vietnam National Children’s Hospital. The delegation of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University is looking forward to having bilateral cooperation in the field of Pediatrics.
“Guangxi is the area with the highest incidence of blood diseases, especially Thalassemia, in China. Therefore, our hospital has had more than 50 years of in-depth research in the field of pediatric hematology in order to detect and treat children with these diseases. Many studies have shown that Southeast Asian countries, including Vietnam, currently have very high rates of Thalassemia, so we hope to share and exchange experiences with you in screening diagnosis and treatment of Thalassemia in particular and blood diseases in general.”, Prof.Dr.Tran Tuan Cuong said.
