"Be healthy)"
Good afternoon! Stay in the clinic was excellent. clean, comfortable, understandable. check-in about 2 hours. I didn’t go there with the aim of being treated - therefore I am not writing about the result. a doctor’s appointment is quite expensive, paid separately, lasts 5-10 minutes gives recommendations and that’s all - be healthy) the clinic does not have any plastic surgery or everything related to the unproven treatment methods for unrecognized diseases (osteochondrosis, dystonia)

Korea University Anam Hospital
Republic of Korea, Seoul
New

Korea University Anam Hospital has world-class robotic surgery skills, especially in cancer surgery. It has developed the world's first robotic oral thyroid cancer surgery method that removes tumor without visible scars by inserting a surgical robot arm into the patient's mouth.

In addition, not only the bladder cancer pre-stage robotic surgery was the first and most successful in Asia, but also the first robotic breast reconstruction surgery in Korea reduces the size of the scar by one-tenth. On top of that, bloodless or minimal blood transfusions are applied to reduce the risk of infection and speed up postoperative recovery. Patients from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia go here for treatment.
