Just checking to see if anyone knows of any clinics in Daegu for testing HIV and other STDs. Just want to do my job as a sexually-active individual.

I think you can have that done at pretty much any hospital. It's expensive though.

Just remember that there's little doctor/patient privacy in Korea. You can expect the hospital/clinic to contact your employer (probably even if you test negative).

Good luck.

next time you're in seoul, make sure it's on the right sunday. it's completely free and confidential (you do not have to give them your name, address, or phone number):

Thanks for the advice. I'm going up to Seoul this weekend for my birthday. Hopefully the results will be a good present... Confused

I believe it is called being a responsible partner. Unless of course you are celibate.

Check the latest edition (Oct) of Daegu Pockets Magazine. There is an advertisement in there about a Urology clinic in Daegu that lists STD disorders first on its list of services. Not sure if they test or not, but according to the ad they are "English OK"

Unless they have a prior relationship with the employer then I highly doubt this. However, if he got a positive result, which he won't as the odds are astronomical, they would probably breach privacy if they were a small hospital, but not if they were a teaching hospital or something like that.
