Bring a medication and treatment history, including benefits and unwanted effects. Before starting treatment abroad, discuss how prescriptions, monitoring and communication will continue with a clinician at home.

Make the consultation useful

Bring relevant clinical records and a list of medicines, supplements and allergies. If you have had earlier treatment, include the dates and any complications.

  • What diagnosis or working explanation fits my symptoms?
  • What treatment options can we consider together?
  • How will benefits and side effects be monitored?
  • How can care continue after I leave Korea?

Ask the doctor to explain the reasoning behind the proposed plan, including alternatives and the option of not proceeding. Confirm who will perform the treatment, who will review your recovery and how to obtain help outside the planned visits. For care abroad, discuss the follow-up arrangements before paying for treatment or booking a return flight.
