Neurology/Neurosurgery in Banghwa-dong, Seoul, Korea

After my parents underwent cognitive testing and were diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, Dr. Shin and Dr. Kim kindly explained everything to us. They also detailed the benefits we could obtain from the insurance plan that we might have otherwise overlooked, which really eased our burden.

Dr. Cho Young-sin was very thorough when I went in for pain rather than an injury. If I had recent X-ray images, he wouldn’t unnecessarily take more; he would carefully explain what we could see on the existing ones. When I was hesitant about shockwave therapy, he didn’t push it on me but rather suggested alternative treatments like manual therapy.

I get injections in my shoulders, lower back, and calves every month at Big Tree Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic. My muscles get so tight that they feel stiff and achy, but after getting muscle injections, the tightness eases up and I feel less stiff and less pain. So I make sure to get an injection and pick up my medication every month. ~ My doctor is Dr. Ibena. She is very kind and accurately identifies the areas that hurt before giving the injections, which I really appreciate. I also like that she doesn’t provide unnecessary treatment. ~ If you’re wondering where to go for Orthopedics, you might want to look into Big Tree Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic in Gangseo. You won’t know whether it’s the right hospital for you until you receive a consultation, so I recommend giving it a try. ~ That’s all for my hospital review. I hope it helps, even just a little, when you’re choosing a hospital. ^^
