Bookimed Expert Insight: While many top-tier centers like Samsung Medical Center focus on in-person care, specialists at Severance Hospital provide remote access. Choosing a doctor with international clinical experience, like Dr. Yeon Jung Kim who worked at NYP Hospital in the USA, often leads to smoother communication for English-speaking patients.
Patient Consensus: Patients found that while direct email inquiries often go unanswered, having a coordinator manage the connection is essential. They noticed that a video call is most effective when technical work-arounds, like providing a local point of contact, are handled in advance.
