Both clinics are in Busanjin-gu around Seomyeon. Seomyeon Station is a transfer station on Busan Metro Lines 1 and 2, which makes it easy to reach from most parts of the city. Seomyeon L Urology Clinic is on the 14th floor of the Busan Lotte Hotel at 772 Gaya-daero.
What should I bring to a urology appointment in Korea?
Bring your passport or other identification, a list of medicines and allergies, and any previous test results or scans. Note when your symptoms started and what makes them better or worse. Clinics may ask for a urine sample, so it can help not to urinate just before your appointment.
How do I choose a urologist in Busan?
Look for a board-certified urologist who examines you in person, explains options in a language you understand and does not pressure you into procedures. Ask for a written, itemized quote for any test or treatment. For elective procedures, ask about follow-up visits and who to contact if problems appear after you leave.
