"Be healthy)"
Good afternoon! Stay in the clinic was excellent. clean, comfortable, understandable. check-in about 2 hours. I didn’t go there with the aim of being treated - therefore I am not writing about the result. a doctor’s appointment is quite expensive, paid separately, lasts 5-10 minutes gives recommendations and that’s all - be healthy) the clinic does not have any plastic surgery or everything related to the unproven treatment methods for unrecognized diseases (osteochondrosis, dystonia)

A minimally invasive procedure for kidney removal using small incisions and a camera-guided tool.

Pros: Minimally invasive with reduced blood loss and faster recovery. Lower risk of infection and complications with a 90% success rate.
Cons: Longer learning curve for surgeons compared to traditional open surgery. Limited access to complex renal masses.
Effectiveness: 95% success rate in kidney removal for cancer or donation.
Duration: 2-4 hours.
Recovery: 2-4 weeks.
Best for: Patients requiring kidney removal for cancer or donation, especially those preferring minimally invasive options.
Prices: Cost of Laparoscopic nephrectomy in Republic of Korea from $14,200

Nephrectomy with Da Vinci Robot

This procedure involves the robotic-assisted removal of a kidney using the Da Vinci surgical system for precision and minimally invasive operation.

Pros: Provides enhanced precision with 3D visualization and robotic arms, reducing blood loss by up to 50%. Shorter hospital stay compared to traditional laparoscopic nephrectomy. Quicker recovery time.
