Travel to Korea

How do I get my medical records translated for my doctor back home?

Published

Outcomes and side effects vary from person to person. Bleeding, infection, swelling and asymmetry may occur. Please consult our medical team before making a decision.

A

Before you leave Korea, we provide English-language medical documentation summarizing your procedure — including the technique used, any materials or grafts involved, and post-operative care instructions — so your doctor back home has a clear clinical picture without needing a separate translation step.

If your home doctor requires additional detail beyond the standard summary, or documentation in a language other than English, let your coordinator know before you depart — we're glad to prepare something more specific while you're still at the clinic, rather than trying to arrange it remotely afterward.

Consultation Tip

Ask your home doctor in advance exactly what documentation they'll want to see, so we can prepare the right format before you leave Korea rather than after.

What follows is general guidance. The actual cause and surgical approach are decided only after an internal examination, a CT scan and a review of your previous surgical history.
