Pediatrics in Jeongneung-dong, Seoul, Korea

My baby had a runny nose and slight fever, so we visited. Even though I always make various promises before going in, when it's time to enter the examination room, I get all whiny and don't want to go in. However, thanks to the teachers who always greet with a smile, examinations are always successful. Since I’ve visited multiple times, my child knows they'll get candy after the check-up and stretches out their hands with a smile when two candies are handed over, haha. After the examination, they forget everything and hop out before the tears even dry. Even though other hospitals prescribe medicine that works quickly, I was worried because my baby was too lethargic and just sleeping. But here, the medicine seems weaker, so while it takes longer to be effective, it seems like the dosage is appropriate since my baby isn’t drowsy. I think if I feed and put them to sleep well, it'll be less taxing on their little body. I started coming here since it's close to home, and it seems to be a good fit.

I always feel good after visiting Kim Sun-young Pediatrics, so I tend to go there even when I just catch a cold. The clinic isn’t big, but it has a warm, family-like atmosphere. Dr. Kim Sun-young is very kind, and the nurses are quick to pick up on things and take care of everything promptly, so I’ve always been able to receive treatment comfortably without any inconvenience. It’s a neighborhood clinic, but it’s quite popular, so you need to make an appointment and sometimes wait, which can be a little boring. Still, because the doctor is so kind and thorough, the wait doesn’t feel boring, and I often go there because it’s such a comfortable and pleasant place to visit.

I visited on a Monday morning and saw the doctor without an appointment since there weren't many people. I was able to see the doctor right after registering because the place was quiet. The doctor was very kind and thoroughly checked my child's condition, providing overall attentive care. My child didn't cry and was calm throughout the appointment. At the end, they even gave my child a candy, which made them happy. I appreciate how they helped my child stay calm for the appointment, allowing us to get through it quickly. After the appointment, while waiting for the prescription, the waiting area had cartoons playing, so my kids didn't get bored during the wait.
