I didn't have a chance to get tested before I left the States and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good place to get tested where the medical team speaks English. Thanks!  |

I don't know. I don't live in Seoul.
However, my rule of thumb is, if it hasn't fallen off it is good to go. |

Yes, I am a girl. And I'm not going through my insurance. I'm going to pay cash. Do you have an address or phone number? |

Suppose you don't have to worry about it falling off then? |

Yeah... I don't really have anything to fall off.
I'm not worried that I have anything, but I like to get tested every year or so, just to be on the safe side. Just wondering if there are any good places in Seoul I might want to try so I'm not waiting months until I can get tested in the States. |

Dr. Sung's Obstetrics and Gynecology
2 floor, Hyundai Building
Hannam-dong
Yongsan-Gu
Seoul 140-210
This is right on the corner of 5-oh geori and from Itaewon, it's about a 2-3,000 won taxi ride. It's very close to Hannam market.
The nearest subway stop is Hannam, but it will take you 15-20 minutes to walk there, at least. It's on the dark blue line, line number 1. The taxi's the best way to go, in my opinion. The Hyundai building is pretty obvious, right on the corner, and there's a Seattle's Best coffee on the first floor.
Telephone: 02-790-0802~3
All female english speaking staff. STD check costs 70k but I use my health card. |

If you are sexually active you should be getting regularly checked anway. A lot of STDs for girls are symptomless. |
