MEDISEARCH MediFind Korea does
MEDISEARCH KOR
Moving to a new place—or traveling in an unfamiliar part of Korea—often comes with a practical question: where is the nearest hospital or pharmacy? General web search mixes in ads and noise, and map apps don’t always show the same details depending on how you search.
MediFind Korea is a web service that brings nationwide hospital and pharmacy listings together in one place, using official public data so you can search by name, region, and type with a consistent source.
What MediFind Korea does
MediFind Korea is a free, public-interest tool that helps you look up registered medical facilities and pharmacies in South Korea: addresses, phone numbers, and core facility information. It is based on the “National status of hospitals and pharmacies” datasets from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA) and data.go.kr. (Data reference: December 2025.)
In scale, it covers roughly 79,400 hospitals and clinics and 25,600 pharmacies nationwide—including general hospitals, local clinics, dental and oriental medicine clinics, public health centers, and other registered types.
What you can do
Find hospitals — Filter by facility type (e.g., general hospital, clinic, dental, oriental medicine) and region
Find pharmacies — Browse by area to locate nearby pharmacies
Regional overview — See how hospitals and pharmacies are distributed by province and city
Unified search — Search hospitals and pharmacies together by facility name or place name
The interface is available in Korean, English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese, which helps residents, visitors, and anyone researching Korean healthcare locations from abroad.
Why public data
This isn’t a substitute for quality ratings or live appointment systems. It is a solid way to answer: where is this facility registered, and how do I contact it? HIRA updates its data on a monthly cadence; MediFind Korea is maintained to refresh in line with those releases.
Important disclaimer
Information is based on public datasets and may differ from real-time availability (same-day visits, hours, etc.). For emergencies, use 119 or your local emergency guidance first. Think of MediFind Korea as a planning and lookup tool for locations and contact details—not a medical advice service.
Is it free?
Yes. It is a free service built on open public data.
