Just remember to bring your ID and do not eat breakfast before you go.
If you go for an exam on a Saturday, there is no Xray.

Weekdays: 9-11:30am on weekdays
Weekends: 9-11:30am - 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month.
*while the official hours indicate that exams can be done until 1PM, the reality is that it's best to come in by 11:30 since staff may take their lunch hour at Noon.
**walk-ins are accepted.
INFO: 02-2199-8161 (Korean only). Often there is no one at the center who speaks a language other than Korean. You can contact 1339 (medical help line) for assistance while you're at the center.
GETTING THERE: The health center is located in the Yongsan District Office building. Go out Exit 3 of Noksapyeong Station (Line 6, Stop 628). Head toward Itaewon, crossing the street at the light. Right after you cross, turn right, heading toward Banpo Bridge. Walk about 2-3 minutes - the Yongsan District Office is the hug building right by the Crown Hotel.
