Department leadership

Director of Endocrinology and Metabolism

A department head is an organizational role. “Chief physician” is a professional rank; the two are listed separately. Roles should be reconfirmed before a consultation.

Education & professional training

  • PhD in Pharmacology, Xi’an Jiaotong University, 2009

Only explicitly documented qualifications and training are included. A visiting appointment is not a degree.

Diagnostic & treatment focus

  • Diagnosis and treatment of diabetes, its complications and thyroid disease

  • Pituitary and adrenal disorders, obesity and metabolic syndrome care

Published procedure descriptions are not a complete operative log. Expertise is distinguished from documented experience; neither establishes suitability or outcomes for an individual patient.

Advanced care & documented cases

These are selected published accounts of clinical work. Each entry distinguishes the physician’s documented role from the wider team’s work. They are not outcome guarantees or a complete operative record.

Clinical case research

Insulin-pump and sleep-apnea management case research

Co-authored a case report on coordinated insulin infusion, glucose monitoring and nocturnal non-invasive ventilation for diabetes with obstructive sleep apnea. The article does not establish a personal treating-physician role.

Documented roleCase-report co-author; researcher

Selected research publications

Selected papers are matched to the clinician using author and affiliation records. Research findings, especially laboratory or animal studies, do not by themselves establish treatment effectiveness in people.

Journal of Diabetes Investigation2018Clinical case report

Application of 3C insulin pump system in combination with non-invasive ventilation in the treatment of a patient with type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome

Co-author

A single case explores coordinated glucose monitoring, insulin delivery and sleep-apnea management. It does not establish a standard treatment, general efficacy or the co-author’s personal procedural role.

Before arranging care

Confirm the clinician’s current hospital, role, specialty fit, consultation route, language arrangements and availability directly with the hospital. A public profile does not establish acceptance of your case or a relationship with YituCare.

How we coordinate specialist appointments

Coordinate the right department, a professor or specialist consultation request, and a confirmed visit plan.
