Address: 1838 Guangzhou Blvd N, Baiyun, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China, 510515

Foreword

The number of kidney transplants in the hospital has ranked the second in the country for many years, and the annual number of kidney transplants in 2005 is estimated to reach 1,000 cases. The transplant doctor disclosed that the waiting time for a donated organ is short here, and the hospital was given priority to receive liver donations. "Our (real) human skin supplies are excessive" In the general context of the CCP's state crime of organ harvesting, the hospital is suspected of participating in the crime of organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners as well as members of other groups.

Hospital Overview: The hospital is a tertiary level-A, general hospital. It covers an area of 203,000 square meters and has 2,225 beds.  There are 4,271 professional and technical personnel, including 603 senior professional and technical positions, 118 doctoral tutors, and 131 master tutors.  There are 28 experts who enjoy special government allowances from the State Council.[1]

I.  It is the CCP’s first military hospital that provides organ transplant service to foreigners 

The First Affiliated Hospital of the First Military Medical University of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) was handed over to Guangdong Province by the army in August 2004 and renamed Nanfang Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University[2]. In March 1995, the hospital was awarded the honorary title of "Model Medical Relief for Overseas Chinese" by Jiang Zemin. It is the only "medical center that treats foreigners" in the army and became a tool for the CCP to use organ transplantation to befriend overseas Chinese and other nations in the world. The hospital is a Grade A kidney transplant, Grade A liver transplant and Grade B heart transplant unit promulgated by Guangdong Province in 2004[3] Before the end of 2006, it "has provided hospitalizations and physical examinations for  nearly 70,000 patients  from more than 70 countries and regions".[4] On May 23, 2007, it was designated by the Ministry of Health as the hospital for carrying out kidney transplantation and liver transplantation. [5]

II.  Bai Shuzhong, the head of the Department of Health, People's Liberation Army General Logistics Department, testified that the hospital is the major hospital in the army  for harvesting organs from living donors

Bai Shuzhong, who served as the head of the Department of Health, PLA General Logistics Department from 1998 to 2004, directly admitted  during WOIPFG's telephone investigation that during his tenure in office, Jiang Zemin personally ordered the organ harvesting of living Falun Gong practitioners, and that the Affiliated Hospital of Military Medical University was the major hospital that carries out Jiang Zemin’s order in the military system .[6] (Recording 1: MP3; Transcript Download: pdf16)

"It was Chairman Jiang at that time", " who hadan instruction that said", "to conduct organ transplantation", and instructed that "(It) could be managed by these military medical universities. Several military medical universities directly under the PLA General Logistics Department had repeatedly requested the approval (for carrying out organ transplantation), because at that time Jiang paid great attention to this issue and attached great importance to it.”

III.  There are many transplant teams, including multiple kidney and liver transplant working groups

The hospital's transplant team is very strong. With the kidney transplant department and liver transplant surgery department alone, we found with direct evidence there are 57 doctors who have performed liver and kidney transplants. There are multiple kidney transplant teams and multiple liver transplant teams:

The kidney transplant department currently has more than 30 medical staff, including 2 professors, 6 associate professors or deputy chief surgeons, and 4 attending surgeons. Most of them have doctorate degrees.[7] In 2014, WOIPFG released the list of transplant doctors in this hospital. We can find from the official website and papers that, among the doctors who are specialized in liver transplantation alone, there are 27 of them who have actually performed surgery[8], including 4 chief surgeons, 2 deputy chief surgeons, 4 attending surgeons, and 16 other surgeons.

IV.  The number of kidney transplants has ranked second in China for many years

1.  As early as November 2001, the hospital had completed 2,123 kidney transplants

Yu Lixin, the head of the hospital's kidney transplantation, claimed in his paper “Progress in Clinical Allograft Kidney Transplantation in China" published in Armed Police Medical Science in 2004 that as early as November 2001, the hospital had completed 2,123 kidney transplants .[9] This hospital, second only to Beijing Friendship Hospital, is No. 2 on the list in the nation.

Figure 1 Overview of transplant surgeries in selected Chinese hospitals that performed more than 1,000 kidney transplants

In July 2009, the hospital's official website still claimed that kidney transplantation ranked second in China and first in Guangdong Province. [10] From this, it can be seen that the hospital has long ranked second in the country in terms of the number of kidney transplants.

In 2009, the Organ Transplant Center of the 309th Hospital of PLA claimed to be "the first in the country" in terms of the number of kidney transplants that year. [11] Nanfang Hospital has long ranked second in the country in terms of the number of kidney transplants. The hospital's annual kidney transplant volume should not be too far from that of PLA 309 hospital.

2.  The number of kidney transplants in 2003 had reached 501 cases per year, and it was estimated to be even greater in 2004 and 2005.

According to Yu Lixin's paper, the average annual transplant volume of the hospital from December 2001 to August 2003 was 501 cases per year. According to the nationwide explosive growth of the organ transplant volume in 2004 and 2005, the hospital's kidney transplant volume during the peak period can be estimated to be even greater.

As Yangcheng Evening News reported on August 2003, Yu Lixin said: "From the completion of the first human kidney transplant in 1978 to August 2003, more than 3,000 kidney transplants have been performed. [12] As mentioned in the above report, Yu Lixin said: "As of November 2001, the hospital had completed 2,123 kidney transplants".[13] From this, it can be calculated that from December 2001 to August 2003, the hospital witnessed an increase of more than 877 kidney transplants (3000-2123=877) in one year and 9 months, with an average of at least 501 cases per year [877/ (1+9/12) =501].

After 2000, China saw an explosive grow in the number of organ transplants, and Nanfang Hospital is no exception. Let us illustrate with the following two examples:

Online media Sina reported in Dec. 2003:the Organ Transplant Center at Fudan University with its total number of organ transplants cases reaching 100 per year and  an annual growth rate of 50 percent, co-founded the “Fudan University Zhongshan Hospital—US Pittsburg University Thomas E. Starzl Collaborating Transplant Research Center”on Dec. 8, 2003, with the world’s largest organ-transplant institute and  stated it was “looking forward to reaching new milestones in the area of organ transplantation.”. [14]

The number of kidney transplants announced by The First Central Hospital of Tianjin exceeded 300 in 2004.[15] It was stated in the year-end summary meeting of the Oriental Organ Transplant Center 2005 that, in 2005, a total of 436 kidney transplants were completed.[16] The rate of increase in the number of kidney transplants is close to 50%.

The number of kidney transplants announced by Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University in 2003 had reached 501 cases per year. 2004 and 2005 saw explosive growth in the number of organ transplants in China. The hospital's annual kidney transplant volume in 2004 and 2005 was estimated to be even greater.

V.  The Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery is the unit with the largest number of liver transplant cases in Guangdong Province

The Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of Nanfang Hospital is one of the largest liver transplant centers in Guangdong Province.[17] The Liver Transplant Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, located in Guangdong province too, is also one of the units that carry out large number of liver transplants. On February 23, 2006, Southern Magazine stated that in 2005, Chen Guihua, the director of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, completed 246 liver transplants in one year.[18] The number of liver transplantation of Hepatobiliary Surgery of Nanfang Hospital should be similar to that of the Affiliated Third Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. Chen Guihua completed 246 liver transplants in only one year, in spite of his busy administrative and management schedules as the hospital’s director. Considering there are 27 surgeons engaged in liver transplants,[19] multiple liver transplant teams could be formed in Nanfang Hospital.

Phone recordings show that four teams of liver transplants could be formed in the hospital.[20]

VI.   The hospital provides organs to local hospitals, provides special services for aristocratic figures, "(real) human skin sources are inexhaustible",

1. Peng Xuemei, an anesthesiologist at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University who has been working partnership with Ding Hongwen in transplant operation, said that there are many sources of organ donations, and the Southern Hospital with a military background is one of them.[21]

The Kidney Transplantation Department of the People's Hospital of Yiyang City claims: "With the full cooperation of the General Hospital of the PLA and the Kidney Transplant Center of the Affiliated Hospital to the First Military Medical University, the best kidney is selected. To choose the most suitable type, a comprehensive examination of the donor kidney is conducted in advance, and strict checks areimplemented to ensure the best matching of the donated kidney. ” [22]

2.  The hospital provides special services for tycoons and billionaires

A former official whoonce worked for a long time in China's Guangdong Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese recently disclosed to The Epoch Times that as early as the 1980s, the CCP was already using the "Nanfang Hospital" (The Affiliated Hospital of the First Military Medical University of the People's Liberation Army, militarily coded as the 157 Hospital) to harvest organs from death row prisoners for transplantation. They use the personal connections of this special group of overseas Chinese, as a tool for the United Front, to provide special services for tycoons and billionaires, and at the same time to make huge profits.[23]

3. "We have more  (real) human skins than needed"

An insider said: "Nanfang Hospital is an  Affiliated Hospital to the First Military Medical University of PLA. At that time, there was no foreign currency exchange in China, and vouchers were required for internal organs replacements and organ transplants. In the 1980s, the hospital set up an agent department of Huiqiao Building in Hong Kong, which directly accepted Hong Kong dollars and made a lot of money. Soon another new building was built for business expansion in 1988 "

In the 1980s, a subsidiary of the Provincial Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese set up a company to do business with an overseas Chinese doctor surnamed Wang in the United States. "The doctor introduced the Brazilian artificial skin business to us. This type of skin is very popular in Zhongshan Hospital and other provincial hospitals, but not in Nanfang Hospital. Once at lunch, a doctor from Hebei who worked in the Nanfang Hospital said to us: Don't let others know, let alone the US government, that our (real) human skin supplies are inexhaustible."

VII. Bai Lan, a former consultant of China General Chamber of Commerce, went to this hospital for a kidney transplant, because organs are easy to obtain[24]

Bai Lan, a consultant to China General Chamber of Commerce who returned from mainland China after kidney transplant, died suddenly on September 18, 2016. Relatives and friends said she died of "health reasons". It was Nanfang Hospital  that persuaded Bai Lan to perform a kidney transplant in Guangzhou.
