Sokbaren Internal Medicine Clinic

I visited the nearby Sokbarun Internal Medicine Clinic in Nampo-dong for my national health screening. Dr. Ha Jong-il was kind, and the nurses were kind too. I also visited two years ago for an upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, and various health screenings. Back then, they found three polyps during the endoscopy and removed them. I wonder how many polyps they’ll find this time~ Going to the hospital is always nerve-racking and makes me tremble. These are photos I took myself~ They’re not stolen photos~

In 2024, I moved from Chungju, Chungcheongbuk-do, to Busan and started receiving care at Sokbarun Internal Medicine Clinic near my home. I was really surprised because it was completely different in size from the internal medicine clinic I used to visit in Chungju. Not only was it large, but the facilities themselves were so clean that I was even more impressed. The reception staff and nurses were also very kind, so I felt there was a huge difference between Busan and Chungju. In particular, even though it’s a clinic rather than a hospital, there are about seven doctors—some working in the health screening center and three seeing patients—so even when there are quite a few people waiting, I’m able to see a doctor without waiting too long. When I met with the doctors for a consultation, they explained my current condition in such detail that it took quite a long time, to the point where I felt sorry for the other people waiting behind me. In a small city like Chungju, you have to go downtown to visit a hospital, there’s usually only one doctor, and many elderly people are always waiting, so appointments take far too long. I’m very happy that it isn’t like that in Busan. There are many other hospitals nearby, but unless something unusual happens, I’ll keep going to Sokbarun Internal Medicine Clinic because it’s clean, the staff are kind, and they give thorough explanations.

I visit every three months to get my prescription for hypertension, a metabolic disease. It’s great that the hospital opens at 8 a.m. It recently moved to a larger location, and it’s clean with friendly staff.
