Smile Surgery, LASIK, LASEK: Why Do You Ask About My Favorite Singer?
Discover why Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic asks about your favorite singer before vision correction surgery like Smile, LASIK, or LASEK. It's all about patient comfort and reducing anxiety during the procedure.
When undergoing vision correction surgery like Smile surgery, LASIK, or LASEK,
Why do you ask about my favorite singer??
Hello. This is Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic.
With the introduction of New Smile LASIK at Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic,
we are implementing new systems to achieve excellent results.
Our updated medical questionnaire is one such change.
In addition to the MBTI we discussed last time, there's a section where you need to write your favorite singer and
the song you'd like to listen to during the surgery.
Many of you must have been curious about the reason for this. :)
The reason lies in the ‘surgical process’.
Even those who don't usually get nervous can surprisingly feel anxious once they enter the operating room.
Rather than a silent and tense atmosphere, we always strive to create a comfortable environment where patients can receive surgery by alleviating tension through their favorite music and conversation with the attending doctor.
We always prepare for this.
There's an anecdote related to this!
It's the fact that our chief director, Dr. Yeom Dong-ju, personally experienced this and emphasized the importance of implementing it for the reasons mentioned above!
Did that resolve your curiosity about why we ask for your favorite song?
For vision correction surgeries like Smile surgery, LASIK, and LASEK,
the skill of medical staff with extensive clinical experience is incredibly important, but it's also good to check:
if the hospital environment is equipped with the latest technology,
if it's a hospital where patient comfort coexists, and
if it's a patient-centered hospital. :)
(That way, you'll feel at ease..)
Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic's 99% target vision achievement for Smile surgery isn't just a coincidence!!
Gangnam Smile Eye Clinic is achieving amazing results by proving the safety, effectiveness, and outcomes of ‘New Smile LASIK’.
We will continue to be a safe eye clinic,
and do our best for patient-centered medical services.
Thank you!.
