If you are planning pregnancy, expecting, or facing a high-risk pregnancy — twins, preterm birth, gestational diabetes, or a pregnancy complication — the Obstetrics Department of Xi'an Gaoxin Hospital offers full-spectrum perinatal care in Northwest China.

Established in June 2002, the department is a Xi'an municipal advantage specialty, the critical maternal rescue center for the Gaoxin District, and a hospital-level advantage specialty and model nursing ward. Backed by Xi'an Gaoxin Hospital — China's first private tertiary Grade-A general hospital — the department operates a VIP ward and a general obstetrics ward with 72 mother-and-baby shared beds, providing full-spectrum care from preconception, prenatal care and delivery to postpartum recovery.
