Family Medicine in Uljin-gun, Gyeongbuk, Korea

This is my go-to clinic. They can take care of simple skin issues, and they have X-rays available for quick checks. Being in a rural area, the convenience they offer is much appreciated. There are a lot of patients, especially during flu season, and the staff handle it all smoothly, so I can get treated properly. The doctor explains everything calmly and in detail, making it easy to understand, and is very kind when answering questions. The reception and nursing staff were also friendly, and the waiting time wasn't too long. The clinic is old but has a cozy vibe and is well maintained, so I trust it. I plan to come back when needed; this is my regular clinic. They even give you a calendar, haha.

I went to the emergency room in the early morning due to unbearable pain and couldn't even stretch my legs. It turned out to be a kidney stone after a CT scan. However, they said they couldn't perform surgery or the procedure. I suffered all night, then went to Pohang for the procedure and gradually got better. It was frustrating that they couldn't provide medical treatment in an emergency and advised me to go to another area, but overall, from registration to consultation and testing, everything was organized and friendly. The medical staff explained things in detail, which alleviated much of my anxiety, and they answered my questions sincerely. There was a bit of a wait in the emergency room, but the guidance was good, so it wasn't too uncomfortable. Overall, I trust this hospital and would consider visiting again.
