Greetings
“I had a lumbar disc herniation too.”
More than 30 years have passed since we started in neurosurgery.
They say ten years can change the landscape,Even after three decades of change,
Lumbar disc herniation treatment is still viewed in black-and-white terms of surgery versus non-surgery
It is unfortunate that such views still remain.
But medicine
It is science.
When I first set out as a neurosurgery specialist, diagnostic technology had not so patients were treated in a race against time, but over the years diagnosis and Surgical equipment has advanced beyond imagination.
Thanks to these advances, those who ten years ago personally endured severe back and leg pain Having suffered it myself, I underwent artificial disc replacement.
On this basis, St. Peter's Hospital provides care that is 95% non-surgical and 5% surgical He is devoted to 'root-cause treatment' and has experience of more than about 5,000 artificial disc replacement procedures.
Warm healing
True healing
Since opening as a neurosurgery clinic in 1992, St. Peter's Hospital has provided a wide range of medical services for more than 30 years, centered on spinal discs and joints and extending to cerebrovascular disease, the heart, uterine myoma, thyroid, prostate and kidney dialysis, with an integrated collaborative care system among the specialists of each department.
Along with medical staff experienced in each disease field, St. Peter's Hospital operates state-of-the-art equipment such as MRI (one 3.0T, one 1.5T) and a high-performance 640-channel MDCT to deliver medical care at or above the level of a university hospital.
Health does not last forever. I too was confident in my health, climbing Daecheongbong Peak on Mt. Seorak twice a year, but I could not prevent aging, degeneration or accidents. Having experienced this myself, I empathize with my patients' pain more than anyone. I remember that a doctor must use the talent he has been given to help those in need.
Drawing on the rich experience and know-how gained from the symptoms and treatments of the many patients we have met over more than 30 years, St. Peter's Hospital will comfort both body and mind and help our patients live more positively.
We will uphold the vision and core values that are St. Peter's Hospital's own: patient-centered collaborative care, diverse social contribution activities, and continuous academic research.
Thank you.
