Seeking English speaking GP in Geoje
Hi
I'm usually found on the Italian threads of the Forum, but this thread is on behalf of my OH.
He has just started work in Geoje, South Korea, (having previously been working in India), and hopefully will be there for 18 months or so.
In January of last year (whilst in Abu Dhabi) he suffered a stroke. Luckily there was no lasting damage, but he is now taking a cocktail of drugs every day to lower his cholesterol. Because he travels extensively and we live in Italy, and he speaks only English, finding a regular doctor to monitor him has been a problem, and I constantly nag him to have a blood test every few months wherever he is so we can see what's happening. So far it seems to be ok, but I would be happier if he had a regular doctor who can advise him if he is still on the right drugs and dosage and monitor him.
I'm wondering if anybody on this forum knows of an English speaking doctor who he can see on a regular basis whilst in Korea? Or even recommend a medical centre that he can visit?
