괜찮은까마귀#6712209/17/2026

정말 이렇게 불친절한 의사는 처음봅니다. 설명도 없고 , 마지막진료여서 교수님 나오실때 다시 여쭤봤는데 무시하고 답도 없이 지나가는 의사가 과연 환자를 보는 의료진인지 의문이네요. 최악의 진료경험입니다.

Medical professional's opinion

GoodDoctorNet verified medical professional12/25/2024

서울대병원 내에서도 활발한 학술활동을 하시는 것으로 유명한 교수님입니다. 자가면역뇌염을 보는 병원이 국내에서는 물론 세계적으로도 몇 군데 되지 않는데 자가면역뇌염 연구를 이끌고 계신 교수님입니다. 희귀한 질환인 자가면역뇌염의 가장 최신화된 지식을 바탕으로 진료와 치료를 받을 수 있습니다. 다만 교수님께서 말씀을 강하고 완고하게 하시는 편이라 상처를 입은 환자분을 본 적이 있습니다.
