Common misunderstandings

Myth I can eat breakfast before the check-up.

Fact Most tests need fasting — eating can cancel them.

Myth More tests are always better.

Fact Tests should match your age and risk; extra tests can cause false alarms.

What to bring

  • Previous check-up results
  • Glasses rather than contact lenses
  • Comfortable clothes; no jewellery
  • Passport (valid 6+ months) and visa / K-ETA if required
  • Medication list with doses, and any allergies
  • Travel insurance details
  • Comfortable, loose clothing for after treatment

Questions to ask your doctor

  • Which package suits my age and history?
  • When will I get results, and in which language?
  • What if something abnormal is found?

Please talk to your physician for exact dates, times and procedures. Every patient’s case is different and every procedure takes a different amount of time, so the figures shown are general planning estimates only. Some patients who cannot stay long in Korea have stitches removed or later check-ups done at home instead — your treating doctor decides what applies to you.

What you can discuss

  • General and comprehensive screening
  • Targeted screening based on risk
  • Results review and follow-up planning

These are areas for consultation, not a promise of eligibility or treatment availability. A qualified Korean specialist determines what is appropriate for you.

Before your consultation

Your health history, medications, previous results, and screening priorities.

Speak to our team — multilingual support is available. We help communicate your questions and coordinate the records requested by your provider. Please don’t send sensitive medical records through an initial public inquiry; we’ll explain the appropriate sharing process.

Planning your time in Korea

Tests should be chosen with a clinician. Follow fasting instructions and leave time to review results.

Recovery, follow-up, and fitness to travel are determined by your clinician. Travel services are arranged separately and should fit your care plan.
