Dr. Yoon Shik Kang, M.D., Ph.D., is President and Founder of Gibbeum Hospital, Korea’s only surgical‑specialty general hospital. Dr. Kang is a pioneer in hernia and colorectal surgery. He has over 30 years of experience and has performed more than 40,000 operations, including over 20,000 mesh‑free hernia repairs. He was ranked the No. 1 proctology specialist by Dong‑A Ilbo. He received the 2016 Hanmi True Medical Award.
Dr. Kang developed the Kang Repair, a mesh‑free hernia surgery. It avoids synthetic mesh and foreign‑body risks. Reported recurrence is under 0.2%, and chronic pain is under 0.5%. The procedure uses local anesthesia and a small incision. Recovery is fast, and early travel is possible. It is often safer for older adults and patients with other conditions. Dr. Kang earned his bachelor’s, master’s, and Ph.D. in Medicine from Seoul National University College of Medicine. He was a colorectal research fellow at St. Mark’s (1993–1994). He has been an invited speaker at the Japanese Society of Coloproctology and a presenter at the 100th ASCRS. Patients have come from more than 56 countries.
