For those of you looking for a urologist in Seoul, we have got you covered.

Therefore, the information in this post should make your search for a urologist a lot less stressful.
연세탑비뇨기과 (Yonsei Top Urology Clinic)
STD/STI Testing, Kidney Stones, UTI
The Yonsei Top Urology Clinic offers male and female patients various types of testing and treatments, from STD screening to kidney stones, and the office is very easy to find. Plus, it’s open on Saturdays. The clinic features modern facilities and treats both local and international patients. Moreover, its location in Mok-dong is convenient for people living in the northwestern part of Seoul and others looking for a clinic outside of the Itaewon area.
The Physician
The clinic is run by Dr. Park, who is a urologist by training. Before taking over the clinic, he worked at government and private hospitals throughout the Seoul area. In addition to being a clinician, he frequently appears on health news segments as a medical expert on KBS and other major networks in Korea.
Dr. Park is also fluent in English. Therefore, he’s capable of comprehending the gravity of your explanations of symptoms/discomfort and consulting with you. So this is a big plus for those who don’t speak Korean fluently. It’s hard enough, and potentially embarrassing, discussing highly sensitive, personal health issues with doctors in your home country. But it can be even more stressful if you can’t find an English-speaking doctor abroad, especially when discussing things like STDs, urinary tract infections, and the like.
