Around your recovery
Between appointments, Beijing offers gentle options for light activity: Forbidden City, Great Wall (Mutianyu), Summer Palace. Your coordinator can arrange half-day outings that fit your recovery stage.
How long to plan for
A consultation-only visit typically needs four to five days. Where surgery is involved, plan on ten to fourteen days, and confirm the surgeon's post-discharge observation requirement in writing.
