Recently, AB Plastic Surgery has been officially certified as a Full Member of KIMA (Korea International Medical Association), which operates under the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
This is more than just a title—it is a formal recognition from the Korean government that AB Plastic Surgery meets high standards in medical quality and systems, and is a certified medical institution for attracting international patients. This certification proves that we are equipped with global-level medical capabilities that represent K-Medical. It also serves as a trust-based indicator for both international and domestic patients to choose our clinic with confidence.
Why is KIMA Full Membership Certification so Important and Challenging?
KIMA Full Membership is not granted based on a hospital’s reputation or size alone. It is a prestigious certification awarded only to institutions that meet the strict, government-recognized standards across various areas such as:
-
Quality of medical services
-
Infection control and safety systems
-
Customized services for foreign patients
-
Medical ethics and professionalism of the staff
When choosing a plastic surgery clinic, surgical skill is only the beginning—trust in the hospital and the safety of its medical systems are even more critical. The KIMA certification is an official, government-backed indicator that AB Plastic Surgery is a hospital patients can rely on, both locally and internationally.
