Pyeongtaek St. Mary's Hospital left a lot of regret.

Pyeongtaek St. Mary's Hospital

Consultation hours from August 30 to May 30

284 Pyeongtaek-ro, Pyeongtaek-si

Parking available

Open Run: Visiting before business hours or on weekends or weekdays, the wait is almost two hours.

 

Waiting is the same even if you make a medical appointment.

 

The orthopedic doctor was kind during the consultation, but since the treatment parts are divided, I was recommended to see a neurosurgeon this time, so I received treatment from both departments together.

 

However, the neurosurgery department head who saw me was very unkind, and he didn't even properly ask where I was hurting. He just listened briefly to the situation, then cut me off and told me to get an MRI right away, which surprised me. I thought at least for major tests, he would explain why the test was necessary and which area should be examined, but he was really rude and unkind.

ㅠㅠ

 

There was also a long wait for the MRI scan, and since it's a large hospital, the cost wasn't cheap.

 

And next to him, Director Jeong of the Orthopedic Surgery Department, after taking an X-ray, said that if something is not visible, additional tests should be performed on that area. He explained in detail what kind of examination this test is for and what level of detail can be confirmed.

Today, the neurosurgery department head I met for the first time requested all kinds of tests, including plain X-rays and MRI, without explaining why they were being done, so I was a bit taken aback since I didn't understand the purpose of the tests.

 

They didn't answer even when I asked and just kind of pushed me away, telling me to just get tested, so I felt embarrassed and didn't feel good after asking.ㅠ

 

So, I think I need to consider it a bit.

I just wanted to do a regular X-ray, so I went and had the imaging done.

 

You didn't properly explain the results of the test you mentioned, and you spoke curtly and dismissively, making uncomfortable comments. And you were really unkind.

 

Recovery review: They didn't explain the treatment process, and after the examination, they just did the test.

 

After the visit, he didn't explain anything and treated me unfriendly and cold with a sullen expression. If that's how it was going to be, I regret having the test, and the cost of the test was not a small amount.

 

Since it's a large hospital, I spent about 100,000 won a day.

 

I was very upset. So I ended up going to another hospital to get treatment again.

 

Other hospitals do not demand excessive tests and instead explain in detail which tests should be done, how to proceed with treatment, and what to look for. And

 

At other hospitals, they confirmed the proper diagnosis without doing extensive tests. These days, I am diligently managing my health, taking medication, and starting rehabilitation while visiting different hospitals.
