This is a pretty specific, but here goes: every time I go to get my blood pressure medicine (mild, genetic) re-prescribed, the doctor says I need to take Lipitor. My doctor in the US says my levels are not very high, and is himself a statin-skeptic, as I am, having had muscle pain when I took them at a previous Korean quack's behest. So, I usually get the pills for 60 days and renew, and then change doctors--not hard to do in Korea. But I'd like to just stick with one doc, someone who will give less knee jerk advice. Anyone? I'm long term in Bundang.

In Itaewon, Dr. Kim at the Itaewon International Clinic is a good doctor that you may find to be helpful. That's my opinion.
