As China's inbound travel sector experiences historic growth, a new concierge platform is helping international visitors combine their trip with preventive health checkups, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) wellness, and dental care. MedonChina, a Health Checkup China concierge service, connects travelers, expatriates, and business visitors with trusted healthcare resources in Shanghai, Shenzhen Hangzhou, and other major cities in China, while providing full English language support throughout the journey.
With visa free entry now available to travelers from 75 countries and stays of up to 240 hours permitted under recent policy expansions, more visitors are extending their China itineraries to include wellness experiences alongside sightseeing and business travel. According to China's National Health Commission, foreign patients made approximately 1.28 million visits to hospitals nationwide in 2025, a 73.6% increase over three years, with international travelers citing cost and efficiency as leading reasons for seeking care in China. MedonChina Health Checkup China services are designed to fit seamlessly into these extended visits, whether travelers have a single free day in Shanghai or are planning a multi day wellness journey across Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hangzhou.
"Thailand has wellness retreats. Korea has beauty tourism. China offers preventive health checkups and TCM wellness, all in one journey," said a spokesperson for MedonChina. "Our role is to make that journey seamless for international visitors who may not speak Chinese, aren't familiar with local healthcare systems, and simply want a trustworthy, English supported way to take care of their health while they travel."
MedonChina's offerings span two product lines in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hangzhou and other major cities. The first is a set of flexible add on services, including health checkups, dental screenings, and TCM wellness sessions such as acupuncture, cupping, and traditional consultations, designed for visitors who are already planning a trip to China and want to incorporate a half day or full day wellness experience without disrupting their itinerary. These add ons are particularly popular among business travelers with limited time, expatriates unfamiliar with local hospital systems, and travelers from countries where routine dental and health screenings carry significantly higher costs.
The second is a series of multi day wellness journeys that pair Shanghai's international healthcare resources with Hangzhou's traditional wellness culture, combining preventive health checkups, TCM experiences, tea culture, and slow travel through West Lake and its surrounding scenery. These journeys are designed for travelers seeking a more immersive experience that blends modern health screening with China's traditional wellness heritage, a combination the company believes is unmatched by other medical tourism destinations such as Thailand, Korea, or Malaysia.
Throughout every experience, MedonChina coordinates appointment scheduling, private transportation, English speaking concierge support, and translated summaries of medical reports for reference after travelers return home. This addresses some of the most commonly cited barriers for international patients in China, including language difficulties, unfamiliar payment systems, and uncertainty about how to navigate hospital procedures.
The company emphasizes that it operates as a coordination and travel concierge service, not a medical provider. All diagnoses, treatments, and medical decisions remain the responsibility of licensed healthcare institutions and practitioners that MedonChina works with. MedonChina's role is limited to travel planning, appointment coordination, language support, and concierge services surrounding the healthcare experience.
China welcomed over 82 million inbound visitor trips in 2025, a 26.4% year over year increase, alongside a growing wave of social media discussion among international travelers comparing healthcare costs and efficiency in China favorably against their home countries. This growing visibility has contributed to increased interest in health checkups as a natural addition to a broader travel itinerary. As demand grows, MedonChina Health Checkup China continues expanding its network of add on services and multi day journeys to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse group of international travelers.
"We're seeing a shift from simply visiting China to travelers actively planning health related activities into their trip," the spokesperson added. "Our goal with MedonChina is to make that easy, transparent, and comfortable, whether someone wants a single health checkup during a business trip or a full wellness journey across Shanghai and Hangzhou."
