Fuda Cancer Hospital is one of the international hospitals Danish cancer patients choose for treatment. Last year, 101 Danish patients were admitted to Fuda Cancer Hospital for treatment. All of these Danish patients had advanced-stage cancer and previously had treatment in their home country's local hospitals, though without good results. After receiving treatment at Fuda, most patients experienced obvious improvements, prolonged life expectancy and/or an improvement in their life quality.
Last year, Danish Cancer Society had arranged for their representatives to visit our hospital twice. Prof. Kecheng Xu, Prof. Lizhi Niu, and Prof. Feng Mu also visited Denmark and the Danish Cancer Society in order to build greater understanding between Fuda Cancer Hospital, and the medical professionals from Denmark.
During this visit, the Chairman of Danish Cancer Society “Helpline,” Dr. Finn Tonnesen, was present. During his visit to Fuda, he told Prof. Kecheng Xu,“This visit deepened my understanding about China and your hospital. Your treatment method strategies are on the right track, allowing patients to have one more option, one more hope on life. We also see that after treatment in your hospital, there really are a lot of patients with very good results. To this we express our appreciation, and also our gratitude.”
