The first step to maintaining your health is not just regular exercise or diet, but accurately understanding your body's condition. It is much less burdensome to discover and manage diseases early than to treat them after they have developed. Siheung Neunggok-dong Internal Medicine helps with early prevention and systematic management through customized check-ups that consider each individual's health status.

• For citizens aged 20 and over, check-ups are every two years, depending on whether they were born in an even or odd year.
• Non-office workers are included in the annual check-up対象.
• Basic items: Blood test, urine test, chest X-ray, vision and hearing tests.
• Additional items by age: Dyslipidemia, osteoporosis, mental health screening, etc.

This is an opportunity to go beyond a simple health check and identify individual risk factors in advance. If this is your first check-up, please check the procedures first in the Examination Guide.

You can receive the 5 major cancer screenings supported by the government (stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, and cervical cancer) all at once at our clinic. Depending on the eligibility criteria, these are free or incur a small fee, and there is no need to visit other hospitals separately, reducing inconvenience. We provide guidance on each item tailored to your age group and gender, ensuring you don't miss any necessary tests.

Stomach cancer and colorectal cancer are highly prevalent diseases in Korea. Even if you are not eligible for national screening, regular examinations are recommended if you have a family history or suffer from chronic diseases. Siheung Neunggok-dong Internal Medicine performs both gastroscopy and colonoscopy, and if polyps or inflammation are found during the examination, they can be removed immediately if necessary. Early detection reduces the burden and risk of treatment, so not delaying your examination cycle is key.

Ultrasound is not included in national health check-ups, but it is an important examination for checking the condition of internal organs. Our clinic performs abdominal, thyroid, breast, and carotid artery ultrasounds, and we adjust the examination items to suit each individual's condition. It allows for a comprehensive assessment of vascular health, the condition of internal organs, and the presence of tumors. When received together with endoscopy, it can help manage digestive health more systematically.

• Adhere to the instructed fasting time.
• Confirm any medications you are taking during the pre-examination consultation.
• Inadequate preparation may lead to inaccurate results or difficulty in proceeding with the examination.

At Siheung Neunggok-dong Internal Medicine, we provide guidance on preparations and precautions during the pre-examination consultation, and we meticulously assist you to ensure a comfortable experience on the day of the examination. Preparation processes may vary by individual, so it is advisable to inquire in advance.

Medical staff specializing in digestive endoscopy personally conduct the examinations and provide guidance on individual management methods after the examination. During periods of high demand for check-ups, such as year-end, booking in advance can help ensure a smoother process. Before visiting, please check the Clinic Hours to schedule your appointment accordingly. Regular check-ups and consistent lifestyle management are the foundation for long-term health maintenance.

If you have any questions about examination items or appointment schedules, please feel free to inquire via chat.
