VIEW Plastic Surgery, Seoul
Bongeunsa-ro, Gangnam · Plastic surgery · 의원 (clinic)
Plastic surgery (성형외과)
Specialist (전문의) — named
Measured · 85%
M1 · Board-certified specialist (전문의) 5 · 24%
UNVERIFIED Lead operator 대표원장 최순우 is a board-certified 성형외과 전문의 (SNU College of Medicine, SNU Hospital PS residency + specialist cert, former SNU Hospital adjunct clinical professor, KSPRS member); further operating doctors labelled 성형외과 and department-attributed. Legal name '뷰성형외과의원' uses the specialist-integral form. source ↗
M2 · Foreign-patient registration (KHIDI) 4 · 18%
UNVERIFIED MOJ 'Outstanding Medical Tourism Institution' every year since 2018 (eight consecutive) — auto-granted only to KHIDI-registered foreign-patient institutions, so registration is implied; also a listed Gangnam-gu cooperation institution. Raw KHIDI row not directly retrieved. source ↗
M3 · Clinic registration (HIRA) 5 · 12%
UNVERIFIED Real record: name 뷰성형외과의원, address 서울 강남구 봉은사로 107. Institution type 의원 (clinic), not 병원, per the Gangnam-gu registry and gangnamunni — despite marketing calling itself a 'hospital'. source ↗
M4 · Operating-room accountability (CCTV) 3 · 10%
UNVERIFIED Discloses a 'Real-Name Surgery System' no-ghost-surgery pledge (same operating surgeon from consult through post-op) and a facility-wide CCTV security system. An explicit OR-CCTV with a patient right to request/receive the recording is not clearly stated — CCTV framed as general security. source ↗
M5 · Advertising compliance (심의필) 2 · 8%
UNVERIFIED No 심의필 number found on accessible pages/footers (Korean-site footer not machine-fetchable). Claim-discipline concern: English positioning uses 'No.1 Trusted Clinic in Seoul' and 'Ranked No.1 in Motiva procedures'. source ↗ · provisional
M6 · Price / process transparency 3 · 7%
UNVERIFIED Maintains the legally-required itemised 비급여 price-disclosure page and also publishes concrete event prices (e.g., 안면윤곽 재수술 499만원, VAT 별도) alongside consult-driven quotes. Deposit/refund/aftercare terms not confirmed on accessible pages. source ↗
M7 · International-patient pathway 5 · 6%
UNVERIFIED Real-time interpretation in nine languages, dedicated foreign-patient coordinators, airport pickup, hotel partnership, post-op remote consultation, a dedicated Russian subdomain, and on-site standby board-certified anesthesiologists plus AED. Explicit emergency-contact/consent-document details not separately confirmed. source ↗
Editorial · 15%
E1 · Operator continuity / franchise transparency 5 · 8%
UNVERIFIED editorial — Single named practice, high attributability — one Gangnam location (봉은사로 107, 19-floor building), ~25 medical staff, 10 ORs; operating doctors individually named and department-attributed under 대표원장 최순우. No multi-branch/franchise structure found. source ↗
E2 · Claim cleanliness & patient protection 4 · 7%
UNVERIFIED editorial — No documented red flag tied to VIEW — no ghost-surgery conviction, death, sanction, or coercive refund-for-deletion record surfaced for 뷰성형외과 specifically (the recording cases in search involved other Seoul clinics). The self-claim '16 years accident-free' is unverifiable marketing, not an external clean-record confirmation. 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.
