Um, why would I need a test to see if I am snipped or not?
I can just look myself without having to give a doctor money... |
You're thinking of the wrong snip. Not the snip that Korean boys get in their early teens. The snip that you get AFTER you've had enough kids. |

Especially if "enough" means 0, and you want to keep it that way. |

That might be more useful if you said, what station, which exit and what hill you were talking about. |

I went to Dr.Woo's skin clinic. It is right next to Sookmyung University subway stop. Very good place. Very professional and quick. English speaking staff and pretty nice facilities. Urine tested while you wait, and blood results in about one week. Total cost 30,000 for visit and about 50,000 in lab fees as I got tested for everything they test for. Overall a pleasnt experience. Worth the 80,000 for peace of mind and confidence in my health |

Did they screen for many STDs? Where is it? How is their English? |

How much does the International clinic in Itaewon charge if you have Korean Health Insurance? |

Since this post is 3 years old can anyone tell me if most of the information here is still accurate? Specifically NQPs post as that sounded like a good option. I know the link for the place in Itaewon didn't work, and so the others might be gone too.
cheers. |

To update this thread. Dr. Woo's Skin Clinic next to the Soomyung Women's University subway stop is a professional place with an English website and quality services. Here's the url:
http://www.wooskin.co.kr/ (you can select English on the bar across the top)
My trip left me with nothing to complain about. I was an hour early for my appointment, and I was able to finish before my scheduled time to start. Total cost was 130,000KRW - 30,000KRW for consultation and 100,000KRW for blood and urine tests. |

if go to an "international clinic" prepare to get taken advantage of. not sexually of course, but monetarily. their prices are exorbitant.
if you are foolish enough to pay the foreigner tax then by all means but you can get a std test at a non "international clinic" for a tiny fraction of what people are paying in itaewon and the like. |
