About NuA · Our Doctor
A Korean Medicine Doctor who listens to how patients feel first —
I'm Dr. Jeonghyeon Kim
Dr. Jeonghyeon Kim begins care not only by checking your symptoms, but by listening to the discomfort you have been living with.
Philosophy · Care that listens
Dr. Jeonghyeon Kim's philosophy of care
I believe the person receiving care should be able to understand their own body. I explain which treatment is needed and why, and we decide the direction together.
Clinical experience · Four settings
Dr. Jeonghyeon Kim's clinical experience
I have built experience in a range of clinical settings, from caring for office workers to treating pain and rehabilitation patients.
Lessons · Looking after recovery
What treating pain and rehabilitation patients taught her
Even when the same area hurts, pain can differ in how it developed and in the living environment behind it. I check not only the area that is uncomfortable now, but also the situations and movements that repeat.
Activities · Outside the treatment room

Attitude · Three words
Honestly, attentively and comfortably
Rather than recommending treatment you do not need, I aim for care that explains what you need now and that you can understand.
Empathy · In the patient's place
Because she has been there, she listens longer
Dr. Jeonghyeon Kim herself lived with atopic dermatitis for a long time and has been through dieting and the yo-yo effect. Personal experience cannot apply in the same way to every patient, but she knows well how recurring discomfort affects daily life.
