어제 이곳을 다녀 왔습니다.김포공항에 50분 거리에 위치해 있고 큰 도로에 접해있어 찾기도 쉬워요.병원 내에 식당도 있어서 편리합니다.의사 선생님 너무 친절하십니다.멀리 제주도에서 방문해서 그런지 하루가 바쁘네요.지하철보다는 김포공항에서 601번 시내버스를 이용하시는게 편리합니다.새로운 약과 시설이 있어 안심이 되고요병원 곳곳에 그림과 인테리어가 정말 맘에 드네요.병원에 들어서면 아주 멋진 분이 친절하게 안내도 해드려서 정말 편리하게 이용했어요.감사합니다.병원이라기 보다는 멋진 박물관을 다녀온 기분입니다.대한민국에서 가장 진료를 잘하는 곳이라는 말을 공항에서 세브란스 병원을 이용하고 있다는 손님의 후기도 들었답니다.대한민국 최고 의료기관으로 거듭 나시길 바랍니다. 화이팅...

I live in here Seoul and am retired from the US Army. When the facilities on Yongsan closed, I started coming to this hospital with my family. The quality of care, efficiency, and hospitality is very good and present in every staff member I have dealt with. If you use the International Clinic they will process your billing and manage your deductibles. Both my daughter and I have been treated here multiple times for serious issues and we both fared well with the treatment. I recommend this hospital if you need care and suggest using their online web site (it’s in English) to make an appointment.

최초의 서양식 의술을 갖고 전도하러 미국에서온 세브란스박사가 주도적으로 설립한 병원으로 한국을 대표하는 병원중 하나.

전국민이 코로나로 떨고 있는데 정치질한답시고, 페북에 예언글이라는 똥이나 싸지르고, 국민 공포감 조성하시는 의사기 있다고 하네요... 제발 진료나 잘하세요.

I had some appts here as an English-only speaking foreigner. The international center helped me arrange everything in advance via email and I went there every time before my appt to be shown where to go. They also helped with translation when needed though most staff speak English. The cost was very reasonable and I was told in advance exactly what things would cost. I would highly recommend for medical tourism.
