Seoul Duke Clinic in Jongno-gu suspected of overtreatment, but fortunately the result

I visited Seoul Duke Clinic because I had severe hoarseness and a sore throat so bad that it was difficult even to swallow. The hospital is quite large, and there were many patients visiting.
Upon entering the examination room, the doctor examined my throat and immediately recommended flu and COVID tests. Personally, having absolutely no symptoms other than a sore throat, I did not undergo the tests; however, even though the recommendation was likely made as a precaution, I did feel it was a bit of overtreatment. As I expected, it turned out to be just a sore throat and tonsillitis, and fortunately, since it was neither COVID nor the flu, I recovered after taking the prescribed medication. The medical staff and nurses did not seem particularly friendly, but they were not unfriendly either—they were fairly average.
