OB-GYN in Gyeongbokgung Station, Seoul, Korea

I came here after an abnormal finding during a health checkup, based on a recommendation from someone I know. Since it was a women’s health issue, I was worried the doctor might be a man, but the female doctor examined me without causing any pain and quickly identified the areas that definitely needed treatment. She prescribed medication that wasn’t too harsh and provided treatment, so I was able to feel comfortable during my visit. She also kindly explained how I should manage my condition going forward. I’m grateful to all the medical staff and nurses. The clinic seems to have opened fairly recently, but everyone was thorough and friendly, which I really appreciated. The building was also clean and well-maintained, so I would be happy to recommend it to people I know. I especially love that they’re open on weekend evenings, making it possible to visit after work. Please continue providing care just as you do now.

One day, my menstrual flow increased and whenever I tried to go out, my pants would get wet, and it went on for over two weeks, soaking my blanket at night. It felt serious, so I went to a local gynecologist who prescribed me some oral contraceptives. However, while the bleeding stopped when I took the pills, it started again when I stopped, leading me to search for help online. That's how I ended up booking an appointment at [Yonsei Joy Obstetrics and Gynecology], which is known for good treatment in Jongno. (Even as a new patient, you have to call ahead to make an appointment to be seen here.) Dr. Lee Seung-heon listened calmly to my situation and discussed various options, suggesting we do an ultrasound. Unlike my previous clinic, the examination room was in a separate area, and after changing into a skirt, I waited on the examination chair, with soft lighting on to minimize any feelings of shame. During the ultrasound, Dr. Lee explained the procedure in a way that put me at ease, describing both the abdominal ultrasound and the vaginal exam if necessary. After the exam, she informed me that my endometrium was thicker than normal and that I would need a shot to dissolve it. She reassured me it would stop bleeding within four days, and since I had been experiencing bleeding for more than two weeks, she also prescribed some iron supplements to take. I was able to return home feeling relieved. I've been going for regular check-ups since then, and I highly recommend this clinic for women experiencing heavy or irregular periods.

The doctor is kind and sees patients until late, so it’s convenient to visit. Maybe because it’s near a business complex, there are a lot of people, but even when they’re busy, they don’t rush through appointments and answer questions thoroughly. They even check whether the pharmacy has the medication in stock and provide accurate care.
