Discussing your priorities with Dr. Kim DaeHwan

A useful consultation connects symptoms, examination and imaging rather than treating a scan result alone. Explain how pain affects walking, sleep, work and daily activity. Discuss nonoperative care, rehabilitation and the expected benefit and limitations of any procedure.

Bring imaging files as well as reports, previous treatment records and a timeline of symptoms. Ask what rehabilitation involves, how progress will be measured and whether treatment requires repeat visits in Korea.

Make the consultation useful

Before meeting Dr. Kim DaeHwan, write down your main concern, how long it has affected you, what you have already tried and what a worthwhile improvement would mean in everyday life. 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 is the likely source of my symptoms?
  • Which nonoperative options remain reasonable?
  • What rehabilitation and activity restrictions are expected?
  • How will my local therapist or doctor continue the plan?

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.
