Reviews about treatment abroad

I was bothered by severe lower back pain. An MRI revealed that the disc between the 2 lumbar vertebrae was destroyed. Despite this, I received conservative treatment, which predictably yielded no results.

I had to turn to the Korean clinic "Uridil", where they immediately suggested disc replacement.

The doctor not only consulted me but also showed me exactly how the surgery would help using a 3D model and a spine mock-up. After that, I had no doubt that the doctors here knew exactly what they were doing! The rehabilitation went very smoothly, and I quickly returned to Russia. To ensure the success of the treatment, the doctor monitored my condition remotely for another six months. 

When our doctors couldn't manage the pain from a complicated herniated disc, I turned to the service. Thanks to the efficiency and professionalism of its specialists, I was at the Uridil clinic on the second day. And two days later, I had a minimally invasive laser surgery. Currently, I'm undergoing rehabilitation. My quality of life has significantly improved.

I turned to "Uridil" because this clinic specializes in orthopedic diseases.

I had long suffered from pain related to a herniated disc, and doctors painted bleak prospects: expensive disc replacement, six months of sick leave, disability. In Korea, I learned that all of this could be avoided.

"Uridil" offers treatment programs with minimal surgical intervention, so we immediately ruled out disc replacement. The doctors said there were no indications for it in my case. The herniation was removed the very next day after arrival, in just 1.5 hours. On the same day, they fitted me with a brace, allowed me to walk slowly, and later - to sit.

Upon discharge, they gave me a CD with test results, recommendations, and educational materials about the spine, its structure, and the specifics of my condition. 

Now I have forgotten the pain, for which I want to thank Dr. Chang Di Su and the international department of the clinic.

At the end of 2014, I was diagnosed with "protrusions of the lumbar spine". The following spring, my condition worsened, my legs began to go numb, the prescribed massage and physical therapy stopped helping. I started going to doctors, but the effect of the treatment was temporary. By summer, it became very difficult for me to walk.

My husband's colleague told us about treatment abroad. The "Uridil" clinic agreed to take on my problem. I sent MRI scans to the doctors, and the conclusion was unequivocal: only surgery.

When I arrived in Korea, I could no longer walk. Now, in 2017, I live a full life, I can run and dance.

Thanks to the surgeons who performed the operation for their professionalism and care!

I had heard many laudatory reviews about Korean medicine from friends, so I finally decided to try it myself. For the treatment of a herniated disc, I chose "Uridil" because they specialize precisely in such problems.

My doctor's first recommendation was a disc prosthesis installation, but then we agreed on a simple herniation removal. I liked that the doctor listened to my opinion and chose a more gentle option. Overall, the attitude towards patients was very respectful: it doesn't matter if you are Korean or a foreigner, financially limited or not.

The work is organized perfectly, like a seamless conveyor belt. Yet, despite the high throughput, you feel care and attention. Patients are always under the supervision of either medical staff or interpreters.
