My husband and I went to "Severance" in June 2016.

My husband has heart problems, which made themselves known as soon as we arrived in Korea. He felt unwell, and we went straight from the airport to the "Severance" intensive care unit. The department is simply huge, with modern diagnostic and patient monitoring equipment at every bed.

About the clinic itself, I can only say one thing: super. I liked everything: the care from the staff (including interpreters), the competent approach to treatment, fantastic equipment - I had only seen such things on TV before. The results exceeded all expectations!

Now we will only get treatment and examinations here.

My daughter needed treatment in Korea.

Nine days after birth, she was transferred to intensive care. Since the doctors couldn't make a diagnosis, my husband and I decided to seek help from Korean doctors. We chose South Korea because we had heard many good things about medicine in this country. It also mattered that it's close to Vladivostok, and the flight takes only 2 hours.

At "Severance", the diagnosis - a heart defect - was made within 3 hours, and the operation was performed the very next day. On the 3rd day, my daughter was transferred from intensive care to a regular ward. Then we spent 20 days recovering and undergoing examinations.

At every stage, they explained in detail what the doctors were doing and why, always making sure we understood correctly. Before discharge, they also gave us test results on a disc (no papers that are easy to lose or mix up!), a treatment plan, and medication for six months. 

It's scary to think what could have happened if we hadn't turned to "Severance" for treatment for our little girl in time. I am grateful to everyone who was with us during this difficult time!

I am sincerely grateful to Dr. Han, who performed a real miracle! Only because he undertook the most complex operation to remove a kidney tumor while preserving the kidney - in Russia, they were planning to remove my kidney along with the tumor! I still continue to see my favorite doctor and visit him once every six months!

I decided to contact a Korean clinic after seeing that treatment for scleroderma in Russia brought no relief. The medical tourism company recommended “Severance” Hospital. The level of service there was top-notch, the medical staff and coordinators pleased with their professionalism and friendly attitude simultaneously.

My daughter had been registered with an ophthalmologist since birth. Vision in one eye kept falling, and we constantly went to doctors without any result. In the end, doctors gave a terrible diagnosis: optic nerve atrophy.

Despite the awful prognosis, we didn't give up and continued looking for a doctor. Finally, I learned about “Severance” Hospital in Seoul, that many of our compatriots go there for examinations and treatment.

When we arrived, I immediately liked the coordinators and interpreter: very pedantic, responsible, and yet welcoming. And thanks to excellent organization, the examinations went quickly, my daughter didn't get tired or nervous.

The clinic itself also impressed me greatly: several huge buildings, fantastic equipment, and most importantly – doctors who gave us hope! In a year, we plan to come here again for surgery.

The institute itself is luxurious, I liked everything there, from the translators to the medical staff. It's even pleasant to be sick there.

But it's not advisable.
