Xia Doctor Chief Physician

The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University · Neurosurgery · Chief Physician

A neurosurgeon with degrees from Anhui Medical University, Southeast University, and Tianjin Medical University, plus a postdoctoral fellowship at Sun Yat-sen University. Holds roles including Ministry of Health expert and NSFC reviewer. Published over 100 papers, 12 indexed in SCI/PubMed, focusing on glioma, Wnt signaling, and tumor angiogenesis.

I have been consistently engaged in the clinical, teaching, and research work of neurosurgery. I am proficient in the diagnosis and treatment of common and frequently occurring neurosurgical diseases, with strong capabilities in managing various complex and difficult neurosurgical conditions. I am highly skilled in neurosurgical microsurgical (minimally invasive) techniques and routinely apply these refined microsurgical skills in clinical operations. I have independently completed over 2,000 ca
