Seoul
National University Hospital operates a private
doctor system. |
|
We have professors specializing in health promotion
and age prevention who will take the role as a lifelong
private doctor for each individual's healthy life.
We operate a specialized and systematic health care
program from the preliminary examination and examination
processes to the doctor's judgment on future health
care.

We offer customized medical examination. |
A medical examination in the past was based on a uniform examination process, but now each patient can consult with a private doctor about the health risk factors and the most suitable examinations for his or her state, and make an appointment. |
