Urology in Gangbuk-gu, Seoul, Korea

I'm leaving a review after visiting Agapa Clinic near Mia Station. First of all, the location was easy to get to on foot from Mia Station, making it quite accessible, and it wasn't difficult to find even for first-time visitors. The interior of the clinic was generally clean and tidy, so I felt comfortable while waiting, and I got the impression that disinfection and hygiene management were done well. I was also satisfied that the flow from reception to treatment was efficiently organized, so the wait wasn't too long. The doctor took very calm and thorough care of my consultation. Rather than hastily jumping to conclusions about my symptoms, they inquired about my current condition and lifestyle habits, which gave me a sense of trust. Especially, they explained things in easy-to-understand terms rather than using difficult medical jargon, so I was able to accurately grasp my condition and fully comprehend the treatment direction. I was impressed by how they answered all my questions without showing any signs of annoyance. The nurses and staff were also kind, and the guidance was clear, allowing me to receive treatment without feeling uneasy, even though it was my first visit. They explained the necessary tests or prescriptions without being excessive, which was quite reassuring, and I felt an overall atmosphere that cared about patients. After the treatment, they summarized the precautions for me again, which helped me manage my care at home.

I visited the Urology department and had a consultation because of nocturia. At first, I thought it was simply because I was drinking too much water, but having to go to the bathroom so often every night really affected my sleep quality, so I eventually decided to see a doctor. During the consultation, they asked when the symptoms had started, about how many times I woke up at night, whether I also urinated frequently during the day, and what my caffeine-drinking habits were. It felt like I received more thorough and systematic counseling than I had expected. I was told that nocturia may improve by reducing fluid intake, especially after dinner, avoiding caffeinated drinks, and developing the habit of urinating before bed. I thought the consultation would be embarrassing, but it really wasn’t. In fact, I felt relieved because I was able to describe my symptoms in detail.

My toenails have gotten thick, and they look opaque and dark, so I went to the hospital for a blood test, but they said nothing is wrong, so I took medicine for a month. Today is the day the treatment starts for the second month, and they gave me another month of medicine.
