Ho Chi Minh City has another general hospital.

JW Hospital in South Korea has announced a transformation from a specialized plastic surgery hospital to a general hospital.

According to Dr. Nguyen Phan Tu Dung, Director of JW Korean General Hospital, after 15 years of operation in the field of cosmetic surgery, the hospital has observed a significant change in the treatment landscape, with an increasing number of older patients, complex medical conditions, and many cases with multiple underlying diseases and high risk factors. This reality demands a comprehensive healthcare model capable of multidisciplinary coordination, risk control, and ensuring a high level of treatment safety.
