Medical Review
Start with a preliminary review of your medical records and imaging before planning a visit to Seoul.
A preliminary record review helps us understand the information available. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, or a guarantee that a particular treatment will be appropriate.
What happens after I submit my MRI?
After you share your symptom history and imaging, the international patient team confirms what has been received, arranges English interpretation and appointment or diagnostic-test planning, and passes the records to an orthopedic specialist. The result is a list of useful next steps, not a diagnosis.
Share a short symptom history, previous treatment, MRI or X-ray reports, and available image files.
The international patient team coordinates English interpretation and appointment or diagnostic-test planning.
Relevant records may be reviewed to help identify useful next steps and what should be confirmed in person.
What records should I prepare?
Send a short description of your symptoms and the affected joint, recent MRI or X-ray images together with their written reports, your past treatment and surgery history, and a list of current medicines and important medical conditions. Image files help more than reports alone.
- A brief description of symptoms and affected joint
- Recent MRI/X-ray images and written reports, if available
- Past treatment, surgery, and rehabilitation history
- Current medicines and important medical conditions
What can the international patient team arrange?
We provide English interpretation, appointment and diagnostic-test coordination, online follow-up after you return home, and English medical certificates or medical-record support. Costs are discussed individually after review; this page does not provide a quotation.
Can a record review replace an in-person examination?
No. A preliminary review helps the team understand what information exists and what may be worth confirming in person. Accurate diagnosis and treatment planning require an in-person specialist evaluation. The clinical team will discuss benefits, risks, limitations, alternatives, recovery, and rehabilitation when relevant.
Patient reviews
2,360 public patient reviews on Google, Naver and Kakao Map
Figures as of 7 September 2026, counted on each platform. Naver lists visitor reviews and rated reviews as two separate sets on the same page, and both are included here. Review volume and platform ratings describe how patients rated their overall experience. They are not a measure of treatment outcomes, which differ between individuals.
Should I send the MRI images or the written report?
Both, when you have them. The written report summarises the findings, while the image files let the orthopedic team look at the joint directly. Bring MRI images as well as the written report when available. Records help the team prepare, but a preliminary review does not replace examination or confirm a treatment plan. If new imaging is clinically needed, the care team will explain the reason and next step.
How do I send my records?
Send the short form below first. On the next screen you can upload your MRI or X-ray images and reports straight away — a written report as a PDF and a few key images are enough for us to begin. The international patient team replies within three business days.

Questions before you send your records
How do I start a medical review?
Fill in the short form on this page. As soon as you send it, the next screen lets you upload your MRI or X-ray images and reports. A written report as a PDF and a few key images are enough for us to begin, and the international patient team replies within three business days.
Is a preliminary record review a diagnosis?
No. It helps the team understand what information exists and what may be worth confirming in person. It is not a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, or a guarantee that a particular treatment will be appropriate.
What does a record review cost?
This page does not provide a quotation. Costs are discussed individually with the international patient team once it is clear what a visit or a diagnostic test would involve.
Is support available in English?
Yes. The international patient team arranges English interpretation for appointments and diagnostic tests, supports online follow-up after you return home, and can prepare English medical certificates and medical-record documents.
The interviews are in Korean. Can I still follow them?
Each video is summarised in English beside it: the patient’s age, the grade of osteoarthritis, what had been tried before, and what the patient describes afterwards. The international patient team can answer questions about them in English.
What if my imaging was taken at another hospital?
Records from other hospitals are welcome, and both the image files and the written report are useful. If new imaging is clinically needed, the care team will explain the reason and the next step before anything is arranged.
