Family Medicine in Banseok, Daejeon, Korea

Hello, I am an employee of the Daejeon Metropolitan City Hall. On July 22, 2026, I visited the Sojehan Hanaro Clinic in Yuseong-gu, Daejeon for a personal comprehensive health check-up. I underwent basic tests such as vision, height, weight, and hearing tests, as well as a stomach endoscopy and colonoscopy. During the colonoscopy, I had a polyp removed for the first time in my life. The whole process took about 2 hours and 30 minutes, from around 8 AM to 11:30 AM. I paid a total of 355,000 won, which included the basic fee of 300,000 won plus 55,000 won for the polyp removal. The experience of having a polyp removed has reminded me once again of the importance of health. I intend to keep the basics of diet and exercise in mind and stay committed to them.

When I visited Jawoong Family Clinic, I was really impressed by the clean and pleasant facilities. The inside had bright lighting, creating a comfortable environment for patients. The waiting area was spacious and equipped with comfortable chairs, allowing me to relax while I waited. The floors and walls were well-maintained, and it was easy to feel that a hygienic environment was being upheld.

It’s probably the busiest general hospital in and around Songgang-dong. The doctor is very friendly and explains things well, and the nurses are friendly too. The downside is that because it’s so busy, you have to wait a really long time if you arrive even a little late.
