K-ClinicKorea Pain Clinic: How Many Days to Stay at Dr.Google
There is no fixed number of days for Dr.Google Pain Clinic in Anyang, Korea. At the first visit you have a consultation, physical exam and imaging, and treatment can be given the same day when suitable, followed by 6+ hours in the day ward. The number of treatments varies, and follow-up may be needed, so ask the doctor before booking flights. The clinic is closed on Thursdays and Sundays.
How Many Days Do I Need to Take Off?
There is no fixed length of stay for Dr.Google Pain Clinic. The doctor confirms it based on your symptoms, so it is cheaper to ask before booking flights than to rebook afterwards.
For international visitors coming to a Korean pain clinic, the practical question is not "what will be treated" but "how many days of leave do I need, and how do I book flights?"
This article puts together the visit rhythm, ward options and opening hours of Dr.Google Pain Clinic so you can plan a realistic length of stay in Korea.
Visit Schedule: First Visit, After Treatment, Follow-Up
At the first visit, Dr.Google Pain Clinic identifies the source of your pain. When suitable, treatment can be given the same day, and whether further treatment is needed is decided by the doctor based on your response.
First visit: consultation, physical exam and imaging to confirm the source of the pain. When suitable, treatment is given the same day under C-arm imaging guidance.
After treatment: most people can walk the same day and can rest in the day ward before returning to their accommodation.
Afterwards: whether you need another treatment, and at what interval, is decided by the doctor based on your response to treatment. This step determines whether you stay a few more days or come back on a later trip.
Day Ward (6+ Hours) and 24-Hour Stay
Dr.Google Pain Clinic has a ward on the 8th floor, with a choice of a day ward stay of 6+ hours or a 24-hour stay.
For visitors from out of town, the biggest worry is how to get back to their accommodation after treatment. The day ward (6+ hours) lets you rest after treatment and return to your hotel the same day. If continued observation is needed, a 24-hour stay is possible.
Single and twin rooms are available. Which one is used depends on the doctor's judgment; please confirm ward fees and how to reserve during your consultation.
When planning, keep the whole day of treatment free and don't schedule other activities on the same day.
Return Flight: Ask the Doctor Before You Book
Confirm flight timing after treatment with the doctor first. K-Clinic recommends not scheduling your return flight on the day of treatment.
The clinic's guidance is that most people can walk normally on the day of treatment, but please confirm your flight time with the doctor first. If you haven't bought tickets yet, ask before booking. If you already have, tell us your return flight time when you make your booking.
If the doctor thinks follow-up treatment may be needed, you will need to extend your stay or plan another trip. That is why we say "ask first, then book."
What to Tell Us Before Booking Flights
Before booking flights, provide your symptoms and affected area, your imaging and records from home, the medications you take, and your planned length of stay, so the doctor can judge whether your schedule is enough.
Please bring any MRI, CT, X-ray images or medical records from home, on disc or as files. If you have shingles, write down the onset date and affected area.
Please tell us about any medications you are taking, especially anticoagulants and painkillers.
Which Days Can I See the Doctor?
Dr.Google Pain Clinic is closed on Thursdays and Sundays, so subtract those two days when planning your stay.
Monday and Friday run until 20:00, the longest hours. On Tuesday the clinic opens at 14:30, and on Saturday it closes at 14:00. Wednesday hours are 09:30–19:00.
For example, if you arrive in Seoul on Wednesday, the clinic is closed on Thursday, so the earliest available day is Friday. Factor this in between your arrival day and your appointment day.
The clinic is in Anyang, Gyeonggi-do. From Seoul, take Subway Line 4 to Beomgye Station, about a 5-minute walk. Parking is available in the building.
Common Questions from International Patients
Q. Can I finish treatment in one trip?
It depends on your symptoms and response to treatment. The number of pain treatments varies, and follow-up treatment is sometimes needed, so please let the doctor review your records before deciding.
Q. I've been advised to have surgery. Can I still come?
Yes. For a herniated disc, the assessment depends on your MRI, symptoms and whether there is muscle weakness, and people who have been advised to have surgery can also come to hear other options.
Q. Who performs the treatment?
Director Koo Jae-won (MD, PhD), a specialist in anesthesiology and pain medicine, personally handles everything from the first consultation and examination to follow-up after treatment.
