Kim Se-young Seoul Growth Clinic

Weekdays were fine, and it was nice that they offered appointments on holidays, but I had to wait too long. Still, it was okay because they examined me thoroughly and explained everything in detail. Since I ended up getting all sorts of things, including a nutritional IV and supplements, the out-of-pocket cost was a lot to handle 😢

I visited for my child’s growth management. I had seen Dr. Se-young Kim at Jesaeng Hospital, and this was the first time I’d seen her since she opened her own clinic. She was still very kind, and I liked that I was able to have a much more relaxed consultation. The clinic is spacious and comfortable, and everyone was friendly. The only thing you can’t help is how outrageous the prices for non-covered treatments are.

I visited for a consultation about my child’s growth. I brought records from the hospital we used to go to, and just the consultation cost 80,000 won. Since we were going to have the tests done anyway, we also had blood work, a urine test, and an X-ray, which brought the total to around 400,000 won. It does feel more expensive than other places, but I’ve heard they’re good, so I’m trusting them and waiting for the next appointment.

I went because my child, who is in fifth grade, was very thin and small. Everyone was kind, and they explained everything in detail. I’m glad we went before it got any later.
