Medical Tourism in South Korea

Excerpts from Dr Prem's Guidebook - Medical Tourism.

South Korea is increasingly becoming known as a destination with unrivaled medical facilities utilizing some of the latest technology in the world. Even though South Korea faces tremendous competition with other established medical tourism destinations in Asia, such as Thailand and Singapore, more medical tourists are starting to see the benefits of traveling to South Korea.

Recent reports claim that in 2008, the country received around 25,000 foreign medical tourists, a striking increase of more than 56% from previous year. Along with a strong healthcare system and advanced technology, the plastic surgery industry is one of the main draws of medical tourists, with nearly 10,000 people landing in South Korea in 2008 to obtain a cosmetic surgical procedure.
