[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor Yoo Deok-yeol) announced that the Dongdaemun-gu Public Health Center will gradually resume medical treatment and issuance of health examination certificates starting from the 7th.


Previously, the district had suspended medical services at the health center to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and focus on quarantine efforts. However, as the spread of COVID-19 has recently subsided, the decision was made to resume medical services and gradually normalize the reduced health center operations in phases.


Residents of Dongdaemun-gu who wish to receive internal medicine treatment or obtain a health examination certificate should bring their ID and visit the first-floor civil service office of the health center on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 11:40 AM and 1:00 PM to 5:40 PM.


Health examination certificates can also be issued at partner hospitals (Seoul Seongsim Hospital, Seoul Naeun Hospital, Korea Association of Health Promotion Eastern Branch, Seonjeong Orthopedic Clinic, Malgeunsu Hospital, Heo Internal Medicine Clinic) until June 30.


A district official stated, “With the suspension of health examination certificate issuance at the health center due to COVID-19 response, food-related workers had to visit private medical institutions, which was inconvenient and involved high fees. We expect that the resumption of these services will greatly alleviate residents’ inconveniences.”



Other services, such as dental treatment, will be resumed sequentially. For more details, please contact the Dongdaemun-gu Public Health Center.
