Moving to Korea was an exciting adventure, but when it came to finding a reliable gynecologist, I had no idea where to start. Back home, I had a doctor I trusted for years, but in a new country—with a language barrier and different medical system—it felt overwhelming.
I started searching online and asking in expat groups, and one name kept coming up: Dr. Seon-Hwa Jeong at Second Spring Women. Women praised her for being thorough, kind, and fluent in English, so I decided to book an appointment.
Step 1: Researching Gynecologists in Korea
If you’re looking for a good OB-GYN in Korea, here are some things to consider:
English-speaking (if you’re not fluent in Korean)
Specializes in women’s health (not just general check-ups)
Comfortable environment (some clinics feel too rushed)
Reputation & patient reviews
Second Spring Women checked all these boxes. Their website had clear info in English, and their focus on women’s wellness, gynecological care, and even holistic treatments made me feel confident in my choice.
Step 2: My Visit to Second Spring Women
From the moment I walked in, I felt at ease. The clinic was modern, clean, and private, which was a huge relief because I was a little nervous.
Dr. Jeong took the time to listen to my concerns without rushing. She explained everything clearly, whether it was about routine check-ups, hormone balance, menstrual issues, or fertility questions.
What I really appreciated:
No judgment – She made me feel comfortable asking even the most awkward questions.
Patient-centered approach – She didn’t just prescribe something and send me on my way; she explained my options.
Holistic options – She integrates Western and traditional Korean medicine, which is great for those looking for natural treatments as well.
Step 3: Why I Recommend Second Spring Women
After my visit, I finally felt like I had a trusted gynecologist in Korea. Whether you need:
Annual check-ups & Pap smears
Hormone & menstrual health support
Fertility consultations
Postpartum & menopause care
Dr. Jeong is an amazing choice. She’s compassionate, highly skilled, and understands foreign patients’ concerns.
