Chung-Ang University Hospital

We will always do our best to make the safest hospital by being considerate to and empathizing with patients.

Thank you for visiting the website of the Chung-Ang University Hospital. Since its foundation in 1968, the Chung-Ang University Hospital has been making efforts to contribute to health promotion and quality of life by providing the finest healthcare service through researches and training. With our continuous effort to enhance the quality of our healthcare services and patients’ safety, we acquired medical institution evaluation certification from the Ministry of Health and Welfare three times in a row. In addition, we were designated as a tertiary hospital providing highly specialized medical services for treating serious diseases four times in a row.

In particular, our Cancer Center with an innovative healthcare service system specializing in cancer treatment provides One-Stop Fast-Track Service so that cancer patients can get medical treatment more quickly. Recognized for our advanced medical care for cancer patients, we acquired Grade 1 in all segments (colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer) of the cancer treatment evaluation conducted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service. Furthermore, we acquired Grade 1 at the adequacy evaluation on medical care for acute stroke, coronary artery bypass graft, ICU (adults and newborns), and hemodialysis. Our competent medical professionals and specialized workforce are leading the treatment of serious diseases.

In the research segment, we acquired a certificate for the first time at the 2021 Institutional Review Board (IRB) evaluation first conducted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea National Institute for Bioethics Policy. In addition, we acquired the international certification “Clinical Investigation of Medical Devices for Human Subjects - Good Clinical Practice (ISO14155)” from Germany’s international testing and certification agency TÜV SÜD in April 2022. We are making efforts to create an optimal research environment and realize the harmonious development of both healthcare services and researches in order to conduct scientific and ethical clinical trials in compliance with the international standards.

We ranked in the top range of the “World’s Best Hospitals” selected by American weekly news magazine Newsweek for four consecutive years. In 2022, we ranked among the top 10, showing a continuous growth trend. We ranked first among 92 large-sized hospitals in Korea, including tertiary hospitals, at the 2017 Patients' Experience Evaluation on Healthcare Services conducted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service. In addition, we ranked first in the Visitors’ Review conducted by a large domestic portal site among 13 tertiary hospitals in Seoul. We are maintaining our reputation as Korea’s most hospitable and reliable hospital.

All medical professionals and faculty members of Chung-Ang University Hospital are doing their best to create the safest hospital by providing the best patient-centered medical services and by being considerate to and empathizing with patients.

Your continuous support and interest will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.
