Hey, I'm having a slight emergency here.

Does anyone know of any hospitals that are fully operational on a Sunday? As in, specialists available and able to provide CT scans, etc?

It seems that unless you're absolutely dying, you have to wait until Monday and take time off work. I want to go in as soon as possible.

To be specific, it's a respiratory/pulmonary problem. I've already been to the ER and they were a bit helpful but not enough. It more or less seemed that they just wanted to get rid of me because I was vertical and not horizontal.

Anyone?

If you're sitting and typing on a computer then you can't be too bad!

What are your symptoms exactly? I'm no doctor but if you're asking for help on a local forum then I have a right to know!

No you really don't.

Anyway OP, any of the university hospitals should be more or less fully open. Do you live near any of them? Like Seoul National University, Yonsei University Hospital or even Konkuk University Hospital.

OP, call 120, the Seoul city hotline, and ask them to call ahead to make sure the hospital is open.

Respiratory problems and living in Seoul? Sounds like a bad combination
