I have been having some pretty bad back problems lately due to sciatica. Does anyone know of a spine specialist (preferably English-speaking) in Seoul?

Dr. Yoon is a pretty good chairopractor(sp) in Iteawon. Although he is expensive. He's in the same building as the international clinic.

Thank you! Before I go to a chiropractor I was also hoping to go to someone who could officially diagnose the cause of the sciatica, since it could be anything from whiplash to tumors. The chiropractors I have been to in the past have treated the symptoms, but have not diagnosed me.

Go to a regular hospital and get an X ray

Hello

We have several English speaking spinal orthopedic surgeons who can give a diagnosis at our center. Please call 02-440-7304 to make an appointment.

You will most likely need to take an MRI when you come!

I think Uridul hospital is supposed to be a top notch spine center.
