Chinese Traditional Medicines Hospital

About us

Named for the flower of this city

The bauhinia is Hong Kong's floral emblem, blooming through the coldest months. We took its name in the hope that gentle Chinese medicine can help people here hold onto resilience and balance amid a relentless pace of life.

Our mission

To make Chinese medicine transparent, understandable and continuous. Patients have every right to know their own pattern diagnosis, what is in their formula and where treatment is heading — so we write every record in language a patient can follow.

The clinic

Chinese Traditional Medicines Hospital sits in Tsim Sha Tsui East, Kowloon, with private consultation rooms, a dedicated acupuncture suite and an in-house herbal dispensary. All clinical records are held in an electronic medical record system, handled strictly in line with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance.

What we hold to

Properly registered

Every practitioner holds current CMCHK registration and continues professional development.

Traceable herbs

Herbs are sourced from reputable suppliers, with testing certificates available on request.

Privacy first

Records are encrypted at rest and every access is logged and auditable.

Honest counsel

We do not overstate what Chinese medicine can do. Where western medical care is warranted, we say so and refer.

Our practitioners

All practitioners are registered with the Chinese Medicine Council of Hong Kong; their registration numbers are published on each practitioner profile and may be verified on the Council's register.

Lineage

The practice holds the plaque of the Yishui School Hong Kong Heritage Workshop, conferred by the Baoding Municipal Bureau of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The Yishui School is a current of Chinese medical scholarship formed in the Jin–Yuan period, known for its work on the spleen and stomach.
