À propos

Gangnam Severance Hospital was opened in 1983 by Yonsei University Health System to expand its medical business and establish a stronghold for healthcare delivery in Gangnam, Seoul, which used to be a neglected area when it came to high quality medical services. The Hospital has demonstrated its undisputed excellence, including the first spine surgery to employ chemonucleolysis in 1984, the first successful lung transplant surgery in 1996, the first muscular cell transplant surgery in a refractory case patient with muscle disease in 1999, and the first successful surgery for enterobrosia in an ultra-low birth weight infant weighing 630g in 2003, based on its consistent investment to achieve qualitative improvements in healthcare. In addition, the Hospital built a trauma center, the first of its kind in Seoul, and introduced customer-centered, cutting-edge medical devices and systems, taking the lead in accurate diagnosis. Gangnam Severance Hospital benefits from the excellence of Yonsei University Health System, South Korea’s first modern medicine institution. It strives to be a hospital that patients can be comfortable trusting with their lives.
