While researching online, I saw that the reviews for Dr. Park Si-hyun looked okay, so I went with it. But I'm unsure. The reviews I saw somehow all looked edited, and since it hasn't been long yet, I need to keep watching the progress.
First of all, the director is kind. When I went for the first consultation, I didn't feel like it was a factory or that there were many foreigners, so I made a reservation and paid the deposit. The consultant didn't really do anything that made me feel bad. As for personality, the director seems straightforward, but personality and skill aren't related, you know.
On the day of surgery, there were a ton of people. Not the consultant, but the staff were seriously legendary-level bad. I'm the one paying, so I wondered if they wanted to fight. My temper almost exploded there, but I held back because I was worried my eye area might end up bursting. Thinking about it again makes me angry.
Then I changed clothes and went into the operating room. First, the changing room and the pre-surgery precaution video they show you felt tacky. (This is where it got kind of funny and my trust started going down.)
I don't know if the hospital where I had my first eye surgery was good or if this place's facilities are poor, but... the operating room is tiny. It just feels like a procedure room where you get Botox. For the recovery room too, the hospital where I had my first surgery had a bed and was really a recovery room itself, but here I recovered on a sofa chair? A reclining sofa. Then they roughly gave me an ice pack, and after some time passed, they told me to go home.
They said there was an anesthesiologist, so I felt reassured about that. But I don't know whether the person who administered the anesthesia was that doctor. (There was no way to confirm.)
Conclusion: It's a factory. The staff are seriously terrible. The facilities are bad (tacky by my standards). If you do the price-review-writing thing, the price seems okay. There seem to be a lot of foreigners. They emphasize that they'll provide this and that for aftercare, but the aftercare is not on the good side.
