Emergency orthopedic care in Seoul, Korea: FAQs
What should I do if I cut off or crush a finger in Seoul?
Call 119 if there is heavy bleeding or other serious injury. Press firmly on the wound with a clean cloth and raise the hand. Wrap the severed part in gauze or a clean cloth moistened with saline or clean water, seal it in a plastic bag, and place the bag in a container of ice water — never directly on ice. Go immediately to a hospital that performs finger replantation; OneTop Hospital treats amputations 24 hours a day.
Can I go to OneTop Hospital at night with a broken bone?
Yes. OneTop Hospital treats fractures and trauma 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including night-time surgery when it is needed. If you can, call +82-2-2644-3690 on the way so the team knows you are coming. For life-threatening injuries, call 119 for an ambulance.
What injuries does the 24-hour trauma service treat?
The trauma service treats cuts and incised wounds, lacerations (torn wounds), stab and puncture wounds, fractures of bones and joints, contusions with bleeding and swelling, and amputations such as a severed finger. Children's fractures are also treated. Injuries to the head, chest or abdomen, or anyone who is unconscious, need an emergency department via 119.
What should I bring to the hospital after an injury?
Bring your passport or alien registration card, any insurance details, a list of medicines and allergies, and a phone with your hotel address. If part of a finger or hand was severed, bring it correctly packed in a sealed bag in ice water. A companion who can stay with you is helpful.
Do I need an appointment for emergency orthopedic care?
No appointment is needed for fractures and injuries — they are seen 24 hours a day. Calling ahead on +82-2-2644-3690 helps the team prepare. For planned treatment of long-standing pain, book an outpatient appointment during clinic hours instead.
