Who Is Dr. Qu Jieming?
Dr. Qu Jieming (瞿介明) is the Chief of Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine at Ruijin Hospital, affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and one of China's foremost respiratory medicine specialists. Internationally recognized for his expertise in severe pneumonia, complex pulmonary infections, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and critical care, Dr. Qu has been at the forefront of China's response to major respiratory disease outbreaks and has led landmark research in pulmonary infection management. His department at Ruijin Hospital is one of the most comprehensive and research-active pulmonology and critical care centers in China.

Why International Patients Choose Dr. Qu
International patients seek Dr. Qu Jieming for his exceptional expertise in complex and treatment-resistant respiratory infections, his leadership in critical care medicine, and his access to advanced bronchoscopic and pulmonary diagnostic technologies.
