Rappoel Clinic provides full Chinese-language communication from booking to aftercare: WeChat booking, consultation interpreter, Chinese treatment plan confirmation, Chinese aftercare instructions, and Chinese follow-up after returning home. This ensures you fully understand the treatment plan and risks before proceeding. We do not recommend clinics without Chinese service, as language barriers can lead to insufficient communication and increased risk.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-q\">Will an interpreter be present during consultation?<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-a\">Yes. Rappoel Clinic has a Chinese interpreter present during consultations, translating the doctor’s Korean explanations into Chinese in real-time. You can ask questions in Chinese, and the interpreter will relay them to the doctor. After the consultation, the interpreter summarizes the treatment plan, cost, and precautions in Chinese to ensure full understanding before you decide on treatment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-q\">How do I contact the clinic after returning home?<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-a\">You can contact the clinic anytime in Chinese via WeChat (rappoelkr or rappoelkr2) or Line (rappoelkr). Describe your concern and send photos. The clinic assesses the situation and provides advice. For mild normal reactions (like slight swelling), the clinic provides reassurance and care guidance; for abnormal situations, the clinic advises on treatment or recommends a return visit to Korea.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<div class=\"faq-q\">What if I cannot read the Korean medication instructions?<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-a\">Rappoel Clinic provides Chinese-language aftercare instructions, including prescription medication usage, dosage, side effects, and precautions.
