Surgery in Sinbanghwa Station, Seoul, Korea

After my colon surgery, I came in for a few days to have the wound treated. The wound is healing well.

I had a couple of concerns around my breasts, so I recently went to Venus Women’s Surgery Clinic and had both a breast ultrasound and a thyroid ultrasound. I had been telling myself that I should get a breast checkup, but once I started feeling some discomfort, I couldn’t help but worry. I had also been told in the past that I had a thyroid nodule, so I decided to have that checked at the same time. I was a little nervous before the tests, but everything was done in a more comfortable atmosphere than I expected, so it didn’t feel stressful. I also liked that they seemed to examine everything very carefully with the ultrasound. When I mentioned the things I was curious about, they checked those areas as well, which helped answer some of my questions during the examination. The breasts and thyroid are areas that can seem fine normally but become concerning when even a small change appears, so I feel much more at ease having them checked directly rather than just continuing to worry. Having both ultrasounds done in one visit also saved me time, and it made me think I should get regular checkups from now on. If you’ve been putting off your usual checkups or have any areas that concern you, I think it might be a good idea to have them checked.

The breast ultrasound was conducted for about 15 minutes. The staff was kind, explained everything well, and observed thoroughly.
