|
|
I fractured a bone in my foot a while ago, and never got it taken care of. It's now healed wrong, so I can't move my foot very much (I know... my own idiotic mistake). Should I just go to the hospital for them to rebreak it and fix it, or does anyone know a good foot doctor? Near Hongdae/Sinchon would be great! |

Oh dear...thats awful.
As you're in sinchon you might try severance hospital which has english-speaking doctors.
You might probably have to go abroad I think. General treatment is good here but IMO they lack top specialists in some areas. |

Be thankful for Korea's dangerous society and lack of safety. Korean bone doctors are pretty good.

The doctor that fixed my broken foot two years ago did an awesome job! And the hospital was just the local orthopedic one down the hill from my school.
You should consult with a doctor to determine a few things, one of which is if the national health insurance will cover the treatment. |

broken feet are often poorly-heeled. |
