Plastic surgery (성형외과)
Specialist (전문의) — named
Measured · 85%
M1 · Board-certified specialist (전문의) 5 · 24%
UNVERIFIED Founder/lead 박상훈 is a board-certified 성형외과 전문의 and KSPRS full member (정회원), former professor at Asan Medical Center / Ulsan Univ. and registered representative director; the site lists 13+ additional named PS specialists. Government/tourism registry name '아이디성형외과병원' uses the specialist-integral form. source ↗
M2 · Foreign-patient registration (KHIDI) 4 · 18%
UNVERIFIED Selected by MOHW as an 'excellent foreign-patient recruitment hospital' (2012 performance, announced Apr 2013), which requires registration as a 외국인환자 유치의료기관. The live KHIDI registry could not be loaded, so the current active entry was not directly viewed. source ↗
M3 · Clinic registration (HIRA) 5 · 12%
UNVERIFIED Registered as a 병원 (hospital), not 의원 — hospital-grade facility with ~30 inpatient beds. 사업자번호 211-09-45158, address 서울시 강남구 도산대로 142. Confirmed via the hospital's own footer/greeting page; direct HIRA record not rendered (form-gated). source ↗
M4 · Operating-room accountability (CCTV) — · 10%
UNVERIFIED Not found after a real search — no public disclosure of OR-CCTV, patient right-to-record, or an explicit no-ghost-surgery/no-proxy pledge located on the site (main + EN + international pages). Korea's nationwide OR-CCTV mandate (since 2023-09-25) is a legal baseline obligation, not a voluntary disclosure. source ↗ · provisional
M5 · Advertising compliance (심의필) 3 · 8%
UNVERIFIED No 심의필 number appeared in the footer or accessible pages (event/procedure pages that would carry such numbers could not be loaded); the legal footer carries no overt prohibited claims. Third-party aggregators brand the listing '1등 성형' / 'Asia's largest' — platform/marketing framings, not confirmed as the hospital's own on-page claims. source ↗ · provisional
M6 · Price / process transparency 3 · 7%
UNVERIFIED The footer carries the legally-required 비급여진료비용 disclosure link (a statutory price sheet exists), but public-facing procedure pricing is effectively consult/inquiry-based, not openly itemised. The 비급여 detail page returned 404 on fetch, so the link's existence is confirmed but not its itemised contents. source ↗
M7 · International-patient pathway 4 · 6%
UNVERIFIED In-house translators covering ~10 languages, bilingual coordinators, an English hotline, messaging via WhatsApp/Skype/KakaoTalk/Line/WeChat, airport transfer, and a structured post-op aftercare plus basement recovery center. Explicit written-consent process and dedicated emergency protocol not clearly published. source ↗
Editorial · 15%
E1 · Operator continuity / franchise transparency 3 · 8%
UNVERIFIED editorial — Single named flagship (아이디병원, one representative director, 30-bed hospital) but with an affiliated multi-brand structure — a separate 아이디의원 (ID Clinic) 의원-grade entity carrying franchise inquiries (가맹문의), plus ID Dermatology and idx satellites where operating-doctor attribution is less clear. source ↗
E2 · Claim cleanliness & patient protection 3 · 7%
UNVERIFIED editorial — A media-reported malpractice allegation against ID Hospital itself (facial-contouring case reported ~early 2021, civil + criminal litigation pursued) which ID publicly denied as 'groundless' pending court proceedings — an unresolved allegation, not a confirmed sanction. The 2016 권대희 ghost-surgery death was at a different Seocho-gu clinic, NOT ID. source ↗

What this register does NOT measure We do not rate surgical outcomes, a doctor's skill, complication rates or "who's better". We verify structural facts: the board-certified specialist (전문의) who operates, the clinic's registration (HIRA / KHIDI), what it discloses about the operating room and its advertising, the prices and the international-patient pathway — and where something is unconfirmed, we say so.
