Samsung Medical Center in Seoul is one of the most modern, high-tech and advanced centers in the world.

Opened in 1994, it was the first  to implement the unique concept of patient focus. Since its foundation, Samsung Clinic has been ranked first in the NCSI (National Customer Satisfaction Index) ranking 14 times and has been ranked top in the Service Quality index 12 times in a row. In addition, the clinic regularly becomes the face of the country's main medical brand. Samsung Medical Center is not just a medical institution, but also a huge research center equipped with the latest technology. And Samsung's medical technologies help with this.

The clinic has 40 specialized departments, including:

  • transplantology;

  • oncology;

  • neurosurgery;

  • cardiac surgery;

  • orthopedics;

  • dermatology;

  • neurology;

  • urology;

  • nuclear medicine;

  • pediatrics;

  • plastic surgery.

The quality of treatment is best described by the survival statistics of patients with severe diseases, according to which: 82% of patients with leukemia, 50.7% with acute bone marrow leukemia, 95% with transplanted liver, 88% with transplanted stem cells are cured and continue to live. Even the most insignificant detail in the doctor's room or office is thought out with patient’s comfort in mind. All rooms are equipped with a private bathroom, fridge, TV, high-speed Internet, comfortable furniture and functional beds. Foreign patients are provided with a personal coordinator. For the comfort and level of medical support, the Samsung center has received the title of “Presidential Standards Hospital”. When you turn to Samsung Medical Center for help, you get high-quality service with the most modern medical equipment, the help of the best doctors in South Korea and, of course, a cozy, almost homely environment.

Patient feedback on treatment:
Samsung Medical Center in Seoul (South Korea)

We publish only real reviews
The environment in the hospital is clean, the conditions are good, the medical staff is good, and it is the best hospital in Korea. It's so good-the champ in the basement restaurant was really good while I was in the hospital.
And if you were hospitalized, it was great to take a walking course for carers and patients. This is an environmentally friendly hospital, as there is a pedestrian zone where you can breathe fresh air from the ward.
I was hospitalized as a patient of Professor Lee Yu-yong on the 7th floor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Samsung Hospital. And this is the first time that I have received such effective treatment and cooperation as with this team.
Beware of additional costs that may be associated with the initial agreed amount. The hospital itself is beautiful and clean, but you have to pay for everything somehow...
If you have a cardiovascular disease, you should seek treatment at the Asan Medical Center. The cardiologists at the Samsung Medical Center are terrible.
First aid is a joke. They dissuade you from taking tests, saying that it will cost more. All the employees seem to be unqualified interns who don't even know how to insert a needle into their arm (they have failed several times). The person I was supposed to take care of got a serious back injury, and they said they wouldn't let you borrow a pillow from them because "they need every one of them for every emergency patient." Samsung Hospital is actually a circus run by clowns loaded with money.
Samsung Seoul Hospital is one of the leading Korean hospitals, where I underwent medical examination, inpatient treatment and outpatient treatment while working at Samsung.
Polite service, pleasant atmosphere help with healing. This is a reliable hospital.
It is good that we were able to undergo a course of treatment with professional medical personnel. When I had an operation at a local hospital, I suffered from a sudden divergence of stitches, and the operation I received here was very successful, and I am satisfied. But it was burdensome because of the high price.
The worst hospital in Seoul, don't be fooled by its fancy buildings and the status of its name. I will tell you about my husband's experience as a US citizen...
He and the other patients were treated like a herd of cows. We signed up for a full check-up one month before the actual check-up date. All the doctors were very unprofessional, mocking and impersonal. I learned in Seoul that the ideal is to go to one of the small hospitals to be treated as a person. Samsung Hospital is all about business and getting patients as soon as possible. Samsung refrigerators, televisions-yes ... But definitely not their hospitals, but doctors.

Patient treated Congenital heart disease in the clinic Samsung Medical Center in Seoul (South Korea)

Great
We had a double operation on my daughter's heart.
Professor Yang Ji-hyuk, did everything possible for my daughter during the operation. The postoperative sutures are very neat. After the operation, we were explained in detail how the procedure went and what to do next. The nurses were always kind. I was very impressed.
My 77-year-old mother received a consultation today from Professor Dr. Chong from the Department of Mental Health. She has visited various hospitals to get advice/treatment, but today's visit was by far the best. Professor Dr. Chong was incredibly patient, kind and helpful throughout our visit. Although my mom had to travel a very long way to get to the medical center, the long trip was definitely worth it. I highly recommend Professor Dr. Chong from the Department of Mental Health.

There is no inpatient ward in the cancer hospital. The main reception inspection. Admission to the ward without a permanent guardian. Even if it is a room for 6 people, an additional fee of 70,000 won per day is charged.
Good medical staff and facilities, but crowded.

Patient treated A brain tumor in the clinic Samsung Medical Center in Seoul (South Korea)

Good
In my experience, I think this is the best private hospital in Korea. The nurses who treated me like family during my two-month hospital stay for brain surgery. The doctor made merry rounds every morning. This is the best place for medical services. But, I don't want to go there anymore.
One of the leading hospitals in Korea. Medical and nursing facilities are well-equipped, but there are long queues at restaurants and cafes during meals. A hospital that prioritizes various tests over the doctor's clinical experience.
I am recovering well after being treated for adenoma by Prof. Sonno Hong of the Department of Gastroenterology. He is a very talented person who takes good care of the patient's health and I really like that.

Patient treated Colon cancer in the clinic Samsung Medical Center in Seoul (South Korea)

Great
I had surgery for colon cancer. I am very satisfied with the operation. Thank you Professor Woo-Young Lee.
We visited the spine center because of my mom's back pain. Received friendly, fast and professional medical care.
One of the best and representative general hospital in South Korea. I can recommend.
The people who work in the hospital are very friendly. It's cleaner than any other hospital. It is good that there are many good doctors who can find the disease in advance and cure it. The emergency room nurses are very kind.
Thank you! Samsung is really a good hospital!
Qualified and friendly medical facility. The medical staff is also well trained.
The waiting time for an electrocardiogram measurement and the waiting time for the next post-treatment visit were long and Dr. Choi from the cardiovascular department was unfriendly.
A large and organized hospital with a large special section for cancer patients
