The history of Cleveland Clinic

After World War II, the Cleveland Clinic achieved a series of world-renowned achievements.

In 1948, physiologist Irvine Heinly Page (1901-1991) and others discovered 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) in plasma, which has a strong vasoconstrictive function.

In 1958, F. Mason Sones (1918-1985), chief of the Department of Pediatric Cardiology, performed the world's first coronary angiography.

In 1967, Argentinian cardiac surgeon René Favaloro (1923-2000) performed the world's first coronary artery bypass grafting.

These landmark events mark Cleveland Clinic's place at the forefront of cardiovascular disease and cardiac surgery in the world.

In addition, Cleveland Clinic has also made remarkable achievements in the fields of artificial organs, organ transplantation, and kidney disease treatment. In 1999, it performed the world's first successful laryngeal transplantation, and in 2007, it performed the world's first transumbilical kidney surgery.

In 1935, the Cleveland Clinic Educational Foundation was established to promote continuing medical education and graduate education.

It has now become one of the largest medical graduate training and education programs in the United States.

In 1945, the Cleveland Clinic established the Lerner Research Institute, which specializes in biomedical research and now has 1,200 research and support staff.

In 2002, Cleveland Clinic cooperated with Case Western Reserve University to establish the Cleveland Clinic Lerner School of Medicine, which organically combined clinical practice, scientific research, and teaching.

Currently, most of the best cancer hospitals in the United States are ranked at the top, such as MD Anderson Cancer Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Cleveland Clinic, and Brigham-Dana Farber Cancer Center.

The center and others have established connections with China's overseas medical service institutions. Patients from China can smoothly be referred to the United States for further diagnosis and treatment through the help of these medical institutions.

We provide Chinese customers with all-round services required for medical treatment abroad, including fast foreign expert appointments, hospitalization appointments, auxiliary visas, medical information collection, medical translation, and overseas accompaniment, as well as remote consultation with Harvard medical experts in the United States and abroad.
