Clinic-Y works with Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital in Seoul as one of the accredited hospitals we can place international patients in. We are the intermediary, not the provider. Our role is to compare this hospital against others for your specific case and to hold it to one written, all-inclusive price.
At a glance
On the figures we hold, Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital is opened in 1974, 717 inpatient beds, 30 clinical departments and 130 physicians on staff. We publish these figures because they are checkable, unlike marketing claims about being the best.
Accreditation and quality
Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital holds World's Best Hospitals 2021 by Newsweek accreditation. What accreditation buys you is systems, not miracles. It means safety protocols exist, are audited and are followed when nobody is watching.
What patients rate
Verified patient rating for Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital is 5.0 out of 5, with 98% of patients reporting they were satisfied with their care. That places it at 9.8 out of 10 on the Clinic-Y service score, which we grade as outstanding. The score combines the verified rating, satisfaction rate, accreditation on file and capacity.
International patient services
The practical side is handled by Clinic-Y rather than by the hospital front desk: transfers, hotel, interpreting, appointment sequencing and the paperwork in between.
Costs and what the package covers
A Clinic-Y quote is all-inclusive: specialist and anaesthesia fees, hospital stay, standard materials, medical interpreter, VIP transfers and hotel. Flights are quoted separately and anything excluded is listed on the same page.
Pricing in South Korea typically runs well below Western Europe and North America for comparable accredited care. The gap comes from operating costs, exchange rates and procedure volumes, not from cheaper implants or shorter protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose this hospital specifically?
Yes. If Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital is where you want to be treated and your case is clinically suitable, we will obtain the quote from them. If it is not suitable, we will tell you why.

No. Coordination is free for patients. We are compensated within the package by the treating hospital, and because we work with many hospitals that never decides where you are sent.

Will someone speak my language?
A medical interpreter attends every consultation, consent conversation and discharge briefing. Nothing is signed in a language you do not follow.
