Dr Donghoon Lee (Seoul, South Korea) Severance Hospital 2015 Update

Edit Post

Has anyone managed to get a reply from him yet? He seems inactive on replying emails these days...

Edit Post

I think his priority right now is not international patient since the Covid-19 pandemic makes it hard for international patients to get Visa approval to enter Korea; so his team just focusing on Korean patients

He is my first choiche but this thing annoys me AF !!!!!!
Might start looking for another surgeon tbh because we can't be like "please Dr answear" for a surgeon who will get paid to do this procedure ,he is not doing it for free/cheap whatsoever .
So whatever the case might be ,this is so unacceptable because no matter what , a short copy and paste reply to all international patients takes NOTHING to be sent .period.

Maybe , but I don't see how a quarantine prevents from answering emails .

I think they’re trying to be more effective. Answering emails from international patients which turns out none comes to South Korea or giving discount to local patients. At their email in April 2021 they even offered me sponsor for full amount of the cost for 14 days quarantine.

14 days of quarantine is not unduoable.
On top of that not all patients want to schedule the surgery in 2 weeks .
Some go to consultation and make the surgery on first date available but others like my case , since I am not even Asian or in the area around what so ever ,need more time therefore having infos and then planning according to infos is important . I can't go to Korea ,call a taxi and invade the DARLI center to have a consultation with him .

Maybe I didn't catch your point but I am still of the opinion that who wants to go with him , goes with him regardless of having to wait few more months .
Who doesn't want to wait , it's not gonna for sure wait for a reply and will regardless pick someone else .
So the point is that I think they should give more attention to patient seeking to travel to world to reach them , then to local patients who would go there no matter what .

Everything with Lee looks fine to me , but this aspects bothers me way tooooo much to not be skeptical

I don't and I doubt its Dr.Lee .
In 2016 he performed at Severance and I highly doubt something like this could have happened at that hospital under his care without being of public domain by now .
I am not even sure that is a real thing because it's such a vague article with no names , doctors , hospital names etc.
I can write too :Young guy died at 19 during nose job In New York  .

But that really tells nothing.
No method ,no doctor , no hospital..not even proof that case did ever exist ,probably just a clickbait .

Any update on him in 2021?
