Pediatrics in Hwagok-dong, Seoul, Korea

This is our child’s regular clinic. The nurses are so kind, and the doctor is very kind as well, with a beautiful smile! Adults come here often too, not just children, and they provide great care. We like it and recommend it—it’s a great neighborhood clinic.

They take their time with each patient, and I like that they open early in the morning.

I caught a cold this time and went to Pediatrics. My throat was swollen, I had a runny nose, and I was coughing, so I visited the pediatrician. They had a video playing outside, so we could watch it while waiting before going in. I usually come here for appointments, and the hospital is clean and the consultation was over much quicker than I expected. (Are all hospitals like that?) Anyway, after finishing the appointment, I noticed the bookshelf next to the entrance. It seems like a nice place for kids to look at books while waiting! Also, it was convenient that we could pick up the medicine right away at the pharmacy next door after getting the prescription. It’s called Saessak Pharmacy, and they sell various toys too. They filled the prescription quickly, so we were out in no time. The cold cleared up within a week, too!
