Orthopedics in Baebang, Asan-si, Korea

I suddenly had pain just below my left outer ankle, so I went in. The x-ray showed nothing wrong, and I received an injection and physical therapy for my nervous system, along with a prescription. Thankfully, the pain has disappeared.

You can receive treatment without unnecessary procedures at the orthopedic clinic. In the morning, there are many elderly patients, so if it’s hard to wait, sometimes I drop by briefly to register for afternoon treatment. If you have notes, you can also make a reservation by phone. Since there’s only one doctor, there tends to be a wait even with a reservation. The first floor is for consultations, and the second floor is where you can receive physical therapy; just keep in mind that the facility is a bit older. The nurses working in the physical therapy room seem very kind, and the front desk on the first floor also treats you well. If the heat or intensity of the hot packs or electrotherapy feels too much during physical therapy, just call the doctor in for a quick adjustment. There is an elevator in the hospital, and if you need to move while getting an IV, there’s someone to assist you.

I suspected frozen shoulder, got an ultrasound, received an injection for inflammation, and did physical therapy. The doctor is kind and attentive.
