"Prevention is better than cure." Preventive medicine is an important component of the medical field and is also one of the development strategies of China Medical University Hsinchu Hospital. Since March 2019, our hospital has officially launched health check-up services, aiming to safeguard the health of the public with state-of-the-art medical testing equipment and thoughtful planning. We have also pioneered a one-stop "Health Promotion Clinic" where individuals can bring their health check-up reports and receive immediate explanations from specialized physicians, eliminating the need to travel between different departments.

illnesses, and chronic diseases have become common enemies of the population. Due to a lack of large medical institutions in Hsinchu County, patients often have to travel long distances for medical treatment, resulting in missed opportunities for timely intervention. With the aim of improving healthcare services and accessibility for the residents of Hsinchu, Chung Shan Medical University has established the Hsinchu Branch Hospital. The vision of the hospital is to provide emergency care for the heart, brain, and life, while also serving as an international medical center. Additionally, the hospital has a dedicated Health Examination and Promotion Center, which carries the mission of providing comprehensive health examinations and promoting a healthy life for valued guests.
