Review

Baroko 바로코Overall: 3.8/5

I went for a consultation last year, but I’m writing the review now. Originally I wanted to consult with Dr. Kim Jun, the head doctor, but he said he mainly does revision nose surgery, so I ended up consulting with Dr. Kang Hyeong-ju. First, they took photos of my face and did some tests. When I explained the nose I wanted using the photos they took, they showed me a before-and-after by doing real-time Photoshop on my face, which I liked. She was a female doctor, and I really felt I could trust her, and talking with her made me feel at ease. But I thought I needed more alar reduction, and this hospital said I didn’t need reduction, so hmm... The consultation manager had a rather easygoing vibe, but they do push for same-day booking. As for cost, this hospital also does functional procedures too, like for rhinitis, and they said that part costs 3 million, but it can be reimbursed through insurance... For just cosmetic nose surgery, the estimate was around 2 million. Since they also do eye surgery, I asked about that while I was there, and even though it was revision eye surgery, they quoted around 1.5 million, so I was surprised it was so cheap. I trusted the doctor, but since this is a nose-specialty hospital, I did wonder whether it would be okay to get eye surgery here too.. Oh, and in other places the consultation goes manager - doctor - manager, but here it was doctor - manager, which I liked. In the first place, the manager can just talk about the cost based on the doctor’s consultation; there’s no need for the manager to look first.
