💑 Our Story of Choice

Both Woori Women’s Hospital and The Prime Hospital had good reputations in Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do. After much deliberation, we chose Woori Women’s Hospital.

Why Did We Choose Woori Women’s Hospital?

Honestly, The Prime Hospital had better facilities. However, there was an unfortunate incident at The Prime Hospital at that time. Only those involved know the truth, but from our perspective as people choosing a hospital, we wanted to select a hospital where such incidents wouldn’t occur, beyond just considering the facilities.

Since this would be the hospital accompanying us on the long journey of infertility treatment for a year, we prioritized trust and peace of mind over facilities.

Dr. Gal Cheol-woo, Department 6 at Woori Women’s Hospital

We received treatment from Dr. Gal Cheol-woo in Department 6 at Woori Women’s Hospital, and thanks to his kind and detailed explanations from start to finish, we have many good memories 😊

For us, exhausted from eight miscarriages, the doctor’s calm and warm explanations were a great comfort. And the nurses were all so kind that we were able to spend our pregnancy period comfortably.

💬 Final Thoughts

What we learned from our experience:

“The most important thing in choosing a hospital isn’t the latest facilities, but the trust relationship with medical staff and a comfortable atmosphere.”

During the year we spent exhausted from eight miscarriages, what we needed wasn’t fancy facilities but warm comfort and detailed explanations. The kindness of Dr. Gal Cheol-woo and the nurses at Woori Women’s Hospital helped us endure that difficult time.

I recommend that you also visit in person and have consultations. Everyone has different hospital needs! 😊
