Korea Health Promotion Association Health Promotion Clinic Gwangju Jeonnam

The Korean Health Management Association, Gwangju Jeonnam Branch, aims to contribute to the improvement of public health by conducting research and prevention projects related to parasitic infections in accordance with the Infectious Disease Prevention and Management Act, and by providing efficient health check-ups and treatment for the early detection and prevention of non-communicable diseases and diseases required by the Minister of Health and Welfare for national health and medical policies. Since its founding in 1964, the Korean Health Management Association has consistently strived to provide health and medical services for the promotion of public health. Efforts have been made to provide various health education for the prevention of diseases, rapid and accurate tests for the early detection of diseases, and a comfortable and courteous examination environment. The health check-up system of the Korean Health Management Association will bring great satisfaction and joy to the public. Starting with the same sincerity and heart, however, the association pursues continuous change and development to provide diverse and better health promotion services that match the changing forms of modern diseases and the health needs of the people. Our branch is a medical institution specialized in health check-ups and health promotion, equipped with state-of-the-art examination equipment such as 3.0T MRI and 128ch MDCT, and 200 or more experts, including 30 medical staff. Last year, we conducted health check-ups for over 100,000 citizens in the province and discovered 450 or more cancer patients, including stomach cancer, thyroid cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, and uterine cancer. We also guided patients with high-risk diabetes and abnormal lipid metabolism to receive early treatment at cooperating hospitals such as university hospitals. In addition, we operate a health promotion counseling office to induce the habituation of healthy lifestyle practices that can extend healthy life expectancy, and we are carrying out various health promotion activities, including a smoking cessation campaign, a campaign to check one's waist circumference, and a campaign to remember one's health indices. In the future, our branch will strengthen a customer-centered medical system with accurate examinations and various medical services to promote the health and quality of life of citizens in the province, and we will do our best to achieve the implementation of public health promotion and quality of life improvement.
