Clinic Introduction
This is the Daehang Hospital, located in the Seocho-gu area of Seoul, South Korea. It is renowned for being one of the top hospitals in the country, as chosen by over 9,000 active medical doctors in South Korea. In fact, it has been featured on the Korean public broadcasting network, EBS, as one of the top doctors in the country. As such, it is widely recognized as the representative hospital for proctology and anal health issues in South Korea. At Daehang Hospital, proctological surgeries are tailored to each patient's symptoms, allowing for more convenient and efficient treatment. Specifically, in the case of hemorrhoid removal surgery, the hospital uses a minimally invasive technique to minimize pain and offers customized surgery to prevent recurrence, taking into account not only the patient's anal function but also the shape of the anus after surgery. Additionally, the hospital operates a women's proctology clinic, staffed by female specialists who provide a more empathetic and comfortable experience for female patients with anal health issues. The clinic not only offers surgical treatment but also colonoscopy examinations, with the same female specialists taking into account the patient's perspective and providing a more delicate and comfortable experience.
This is the largest one-stop colonoscopy center in South Korea, with a patient-centered approach. It was the first specialized hospital to establish a colonoscopy center, where colonoscopy examinations are performed directly by specialists in colon and rectal surgery. The colonoscopy equipment is strictly managed through thorough cleaning and disinfection using a brush. If polyps are found during the examination, they are immediately removed. In the event that a progressing colon cancer is discovered during the examination, the hospital has established a collaborative treatment system with the colon cancer center, allowing for immediate treatment.
