Hyesung Hospital located in Cheonan, Chungnam, was established in 1996 as a specialized hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It also opened a laperoscope center based on high quality medical service and has taken a leading role among independent hospitals in Chungcheong province.
Management philosophy of Director Hong Gi Eon, is to provide good facilities and medical services to patients. He was selected as top 100 medical scientists of the world in 2006 by International Biography Center, promoting the status of medical scientists in Korea. He was highly appreciated by the nomination committee of International Biography Center, with his excellent research including delivery respecting human right and surgeries using laperoscope with a minor cut despite of suffering and perseverance as an independent hospital.
In particular, Hyesung Obstetrics Gynecology does not consider pains required for child birth as suffering, but it considers it as preparation and process to meet a new baby and to strengthen the baby in mother's womb. As a result of this, mothers can endure pains with joy and gladness expecting a baby.
Therefore, Hyesung Hospital opened 'Human Right-focused Delivery Center' after newly constructing Hyesung Delivery Center. It is operated as a meditation center or sports center. In other words, it emphasizes that happy body and mind are the most important for delivery during pregnancy of mothers. It also helps mothers to control themselves and set up a delivery plan through exercise and preparatory education for delivery.
Delivery respecting human right which Hyesung hospital is proud of, is in accordance with Leboyer's philosophy for delivery. It operates family delivery room and pre-delivery room for individuals. It supports natural childbirth by providing information from pregnancy to prenatal training and child care. Delivery is not suffering that only mother should endure, it is joy for everybody and touches family members' heart. Hyesung hospital and its medical teams make the best effort for this to happen.
Surgeries using laperoscope at Laperoscope Center of Hyesung hospital is different from surgeries cutting abdomen. It does not have to cut abdomen, but instead it makes small holes and put laperoscope with a special camera attached inside and has surgeries using laser or other surgical instruments. It was introduced to Cholecystectomy for the first time and highly applied in obstetrics and gynecology.
Surgeries using laperoscope is applied to cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. Its success rate is out of imagination due to development of surgical technologies. In other words, its survival rate is same compared with surgeries cutting abdomen, but treatment period is only one third.
Also, laperoscope consists of 2 types, one is for diagnosis and the other is for surgeries. Laperoscope for diagnosis is not required to cut abdomen in order to find reason and current condition of disease. Laperoscope for surgeries are applied when some anomalies are found through laperoscope for diagnosis. It uses laser and video for surgeries in specific and thorough manner.
Laperoscope surgery clinic of Hyesung hospital applies video laperoscope surgeries for ectopic pregnancy, endometrial cancer, uterus myoma, adhesion of tube or pelvis, ovarian tumor, uterus extract and tube fertilization.
As a result, it takes less time for surgery itself and anesthesia compared to surgeries cutting abdomen. It also leaves less scars and adhesion. So patients do not have to stay in hospital or days of hospital treatment is short and return to usual life quite soon.
