Polypectomy in Seoul, South Korea

My husband and I came to the clinic for the second time to have his intestines examined. During the colonoscopy, the doctor discovered polyps and immediately removed them. We were accompanied by an interpreter the whole time. She helped us communicate with the doctors. We are satisfied with the service.

My stay at “Soon Chun Hyang” brought me a lot of impressions!

Everything was new to me: it was my first time in Korea and undergoing a package examination at a foreign clinic, specifically, a colonoscopy. Of course, I was nervous at first, but I soon realized there was no reason to worry.

I always had an escort: they took me directly from the airport to the diagnostic center, where I met friendly coordinators and interpreters. The clinic itself is more like a spa – clean, bright, with even music playing.

Doctors explain in detail what they are doing and why, answering every single question. They delve into the patient's problems and don't finish the examination until they understand exactly the cause of the ailment.

Everything happened very quickly. I finished the procedures without any delays, found out that large polyps were discovered during the colonoscopy – and an hour later, with my consent, they were preparing me for surgery.

Overall, I liked everything!

For a full body check-up, I chose “Hanyang”. It's a center affiliated with the medical university, combining an outpatient clinic, diagnostic department, and treatment buildings.

Right upon arrival, I was met by an interpreter. Subsequently, he was always in touch and ready to advise on any issue, even currency exchange and other everyday matters.

Treatment organization was handled by coordinator Lyudmila. She did everything so that I promptly underwent the necessary examinations, scheduled additional ones, received treatment and consultations.

Overall, I have only the best memories of my stay in Korea. Even the procedures in the gastroenterology and colonoscopy departments went without discomfort! I had them twice and never experienced pain or other unpleasant sensations. When I had a free minute, I walked around Seoul and had a very interesting time.

Wishing everyone success and health!
