CAR T-cell Therapy in South Korea

I traveled to South Korea for a laparoscopic nephrectomy, and it was hands-down the best decision I’ve made for my health. The international patient team guided me through every step, including virtual consultations and hotel bookings near the hospital. The surgery itself was quick and precise. My surgeon used minimally invasive techniques, and I had barely any pain afterward. I was walking within 24 hours and discharged in just 3 days. What really stood out was the advanced medical technology. Everything felt modern, efficient, and tailored to my recovery. It’s clear why South Korea is becoming a go-to destination for kidney removal surgery. The cost was surprisingly reasonable, nearly 60% less than what I was quoted in the U.S., with no compromise on quality. Plus, the aftercare was incredible. Nurses checked on me frequently, and I even had a dedicated coordinator to handle all my follow-up appointments.

For a long time I suffered from kidney failure and was on dialysis. At the Samsung hospital I had a successful kidney transplant. The operation went without complications, recovery took a month. Doctors and all medical workers helped, supported. The conditions of the clinic are simply excellent. I will thank the clinic many more times for my life!

When I was diagnosed with a spinal tumor in Chisinau, local doctors talked about the high risk of paralysis after surgery. I decided to get treatment at the Samsung clinic because I learned that they use minimally invasive methods. After a detailed diagnosis, I was prescribed a robotic operation. The surgery was successful, without complications and long recovery. A week later, I could already walk! They also conducted rehabilitation, which helped restore mobility. Thanks to the doctors for their professionalism and advanced technology, thanks to which I got a second chance at a full life.

Facing rectal cancer was terrifying, but discovering Dr. Lee Won Suk at Gachon University Gil Medical Center gave me hope. Traveling to another country was a big decision, but Dr. Lee's reputation for excellence in cancer surgery convinced me. My surgery was successful, and the post-operative care was outstanding. Dr. Lee’s compassion and skill made a world of difference. I couldn’t have asked for better treatment.

I had a spinal tumor removal surgery at Severance using a robotic system. Everything went perfectly! I was able to walk within a couple of days and was back to my normal life within a month. The doctors are incredibly professional and the staff is caring.

In short, they saved my life here. In Lithuania, I was diagnosed with a serious heart defect, but they gave me little chance. I started looking for a solution abroad, the coordinators recommended Severance, because the cardiac surgeons here are highly qualified. Professor Kim operated, the operation was successful and the recovery was faster than I expected. I would like to separately note the level of care, the staff is very attentive, the equipment is state-of-the-art, the wards are comfortable. I am infinitely grateful to the entire team of the clinic for their work!

I came to the Severance Clinic from Tirana when I was diagnosed with liver cancer. The doctors in Albania said that surgery was impossible and that I needed to undergo long-term chemotherapy....but I wanted to find more modern treatment methods. Here I was quickly diagnosed, offered modern radiation therapy, and as a result, they were able to reduce the tumor and perform surgery!! After that, I needed to undergo targeted therapy. The doctors explained everything in detail that this was necessary to prevent relapse....I felt safe during the entire treatment!! I want to express my deep gratitude to all the doctors who not only fought for my health, but also supported me emotionally.
