Dr. Yongjin Kim is a specialist practising at Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital in Seoul. Clinic-Y does not employ doctors. We match cases to specialists and hold the hospital to one written package price.
Credentials on file
- Korean Society for the Study of Obesity
Communication and language
A Clinic-Y medical interpreter attends every consultation, consent discussion and discharge briefing, so the conversation happens in your own language regardless of the specialist you see.
Patient ratings
Dr. Yongjin Kim has no independently verified review score on file yet. That is common for specialists newly listed on international platforms and is not a mark against them; it simply means the rating column is empty rather than low.
Consultation options
The first face-to-face consultation takes place on your first day in Seoul, before anything is scheduled. In either case the specialist confirms or honestly revises the remote plan, and nothing proceeds until you agree.
Where treatment takes place
Dr. Yongjin Kim treats Clinic-Y patients at Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital, which holds a verified patient rating of 5.0 out of 5 and has 717 inpatient beds. Clinic-Y books surgical cases only into full-service hospitals with intensive care on site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I request this specialist by name?
Yes, provided your case is clinically suitable. If another specialist in the network is a better fit for your diagnosis, we will tell you and explain why.
Is a second opinion possible?
Yes, and it is free. Clinic-Y can send the same file to a second partner specialist and give you both written assessments.
What does the consultation cost?
The remote case review is free. Any in-person consultation fee is stated in your written plan before you travel, and in most packages it is already included.
