Jeonju Plantar Fasciitis Orthopedic Clinics: 5 Clinics Compared for English-speaking Patients — Reviews, Hours, and What to Check

Key Conclusions

Based on collected review counts, 에코삼성정형외과의원 (Eco Samsung Orthopedic Clinic) has the most Naver reviews at 2,730, while 새연정형외과의원 (Saeyeon Orthopedic Clinic) has 867 Naver reviews, 56 Kakao reviews, a Kakao rating of 3.9, and a Google rating of 4. However, Naver ratings were not provided, and neither clinic has data in the collected materials on plantar fasciitis treatment volume or related specialization. Therefore, rather than concluding that a clinic is “good” based on reviews alone, it is better to call and confirm whether treatment is available and what the examination and treatment plan would be before choosing.

For foreign patients visiting a clinic in Jeonju, the most important point is that language support varies by clinic and must be confirmed by phone or through the clinic’s booking page. If you need an English-speaking consultation, ask directly whether interpretation or English-language assistance is available before booking. Bring your passport or residence card, any insurance information, a list of medications, and a translation app or Korean-speaking companion if needed.

Analysis Method

We collected 5,358 Naver Place visitor reviews, 75 KakaoMap reviews, and Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) registration information to compare five clinics. Each hospital’s Naver, Kakao, and Google ratings and Naver, blog, Kakao, and Google review counts are listed exactly as provided. The average KakaoMap rating for the five selected clinics is 3.3. “Total reviews” in the table is the sum of the Naver, blog, Kakao, and Google review counts provided for each hospital; overlap between platform reviews cannot be verified. The number of orthopedic specialists was not available for any of the five clinics, so it is listed as “not available.” Reviews are individual visitor experiences and do not indicate plantar fasciitis treatment results.

Clinic Details

다사랑병원 (Dasarang Hospital)

The address is 전북 전주시 완산구 백제대로 74 (74 Baekje-daero, Wansan-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do), and the phone number is 063-228-5540. The provided review totals are 1,465 Naver reviews, 799 blog reviews, 3 Kakao reviews, and 0 Google reviews, for a total of 2,267. The Kakao rating is 2.8, the Google rating is 3.6, and no Naver rating was confirmed. The number of orthopedic specialists according to HIRA and the clinic hours are not in the collected materials. There is also no material confirming whether plantar fasciitis is treated or providing related care information, so call first to ask whether they treat this symptom and which department handles it.

“I visited suddenly with a high fever and got an IV. Today the wait was short, under 10 minutes! Above all, the nurses were more kind and attentive than the doctor, so every time I come, it’s a place that puts my mind at ease!” (뚠이 메롱, September 20, 2026)

“At Dasarang Hospital, the treatment process was systematic and the staff guided me kindly, so I could receive care comfortably. The inside of the hospital was clean, and overall I was satisfied.” (Shinjihee, July 4, 2026)

The reviews include experiences such as treatment for a high fever and visiting for migraine medication, which are not confirmed to be directly related to orthopedics. Therefore, review counts should not be interpreted as the number of plantar fasciitis treatment experiences. Reservation, parking, wireless internet, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are registered as amenities, but the reservation method and parking conditions require separate confirmation. Transportation access and public transit information are not in the materials. Clinic hours and lunch hours are also not provided, so confirm by phone before visiting. No specialized information on examination, treatment, or rehabilitation for plantar fasciitis was confirmed. When contacting the hospital, it is practical to ask whether they treat foot sole pain, which days are available, and what reservation procedure is required.

에코삼성정형외과의원 (Eco Samsung Orthopedic Clinic)

The address is 전북 전주시 덕진구 세병남로 25 2층·3층·4층 (25 Sebyeongnam-ro, Deokjin-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do; 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors), and the phone number is 0507-1471-5582. The provided review totals are 2,730 Naver reviews, 146 blog reviews, 4 Kakao reviews, and 0 Google reviews, for a total of 2,880. The Google rating is 1.8, and Naver and Kakao ratings were not provided. The number of orthopedic specialists was not confirmed in HIRA data. The provided hours are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday 09:00–20:00; Wednesday and Saturday 09:00–19:00; and Sunday 09:00–18:30. Friday hours and lunch hours are not in the materials. Because some days have care until 20:00, a late visit can be considered, but confirm the same-day registration cutoff first.

“My shoulder has been troublesome for years, and I went here and there, but after coming here I don’t think about going anywhere else. The director looks at the X-ray and explains where the problem is, so it’s easy to understand. Every visit, they compare with last time and check my condition, so it really feels like I’m being managed.” (sna****, October 6, 2026)

“My child sprained an ankle while playing at school, and the doctor explained at the child’s eye level and comforted him so he wouldn’t be scared. I was really grateful.” (slo****, October 5, 2026)

These quotes are about shoulder and ankle care experiences, not plantar fasciitis treatment reviews. The fact that the review count is the highest among the five shows only the volume of use experiences; it does not guarantee treatment results for a specific condition. Reservation, parking, wireless internet, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are registered as amenities, and the website is 에코삼성정형외과의원 홈페이지 (https://www.ecosamsung.com). Transportation access cannot be confirmed from the provided materials. Ask before visiting about whether plantar fasciitis is treated, the scope of examination and treatment, reservation methods, and parking conditions. Whether they evaluate the cause of foot sole pain or provide related specialized care is also not in the public materials, so confirmation is needed.

의료법인 영경의료재단 호성전주병원 (Hoseong Jeonju Hospital, Yeonggyeong Medical Foundation)

The address is 전북 전주시 덕진구 동부대로 895 (895 Dongbu-daero, Deokjin-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do), and the phone number is 063-240-8800. The provided review totals are 114 Naver reviews, 213 blog reviews, 12 Kakao reviews, and 0 Google reviews, for a total of 339. The Kakao rating is 3.3, the Google rating is 3.8, and no Naver rating was provided. The number of orthopedic specialists was not confirmed. The hours are Monday–Thursday 08:30–17:30 and Saturday 08:30–12:30; Sunday and Friday hours are not in the materials. Lunch hours were also not confirmed, so it is best to call to confirm same-day available times and the registration cutoff.

“Hoseong Jeonju Hospital national health checkup reservation, used after reserving, kind, fast, comfortable, I highly recommend this health checkup place.” (jkh5743, October 30, 2025)

“Hoseong Jeonju Hospital treatment reservation (not emergency room reservation), used after reserving, entered right away with no wait, the kind nurses and doctor explained well, and I think I finished quickly.” (gks****, October 29, 2025)

The quoted content is about health checkups and general care experiences, and is not confirmed as a plantar fasciitis treatment review. Emergency room operation, reservations, parking, valet parking, waiting areas, wireless internet, and separate men’s and women’s restrooms are included in the amenity information. One visitor wrote that parking next to the hospital was difficult and that they used the ground parking lot across the street, but parking conditions can vary by visit time, so check with the hospital. Transportation access information and plantar fasciitis-related specialized information are not in the collected materials. If you want plantar fasciitis care, it is practical to first ask whether orthopedic care is available, whether a reservation is needed, and whether examinations can be performed.

수병원 (Su Hospital)

The address is 전북 전주시 완산구 서원로 63 (63 Seowon-ro, Wansan-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do), and the phone number is 063-251-7200. The provided review totals are 182 Naver reviews, 2,407 blog reviews, 0 Kakao reviews, and 1 Google review, for a total of 2,590. The Google rating is 3.6, and Naver and Kakao ratings were not provided. The number of orthopedic specialists according to HIRA was not confirmed. The hours provided are Monday–Thursday 08:30–17:30 and Saturday 08:30–12:30. Friday and Sunday hours and lunch hours are not in the materials. As the website, the hospital blog was provided. Confirm by phone whether these hours apply on your actual visit date and what the registration cutoff is.

“Knee / hip / thigh, used after reserving, wait time under 30 minutes. I came here after feeling frustrated following care at another hospital, and they explained things clearly, so I was very satisfied.” (윤준린, September 19, 2026)

“I praise the kind nurses. I received care from Manager 주바른찬. The best technique is important, but I think treating the patient’s heart is also important. They must be tired because of so many patients, but they guided me with warm words and a warm gaze, which was moving. Thank you.” (다른사람들과, July 20, 2026)

Another review also described an experience of waiting more than 2 hours, so wait times can vary by visit date and situation. The quoted reviews are about knee, hip, and thigh care and hand, elbow, and wrist care, and cannot be viewed as plantar fasciitis reviews. Amenities are not in the provided materials, and transportation access and parking conditions cannot be confirmed. Specialized information about plantar fasciitis care or treatment was also not confirmed, so ask before visiting about whether foot sole pain can be treated, how to book, and whether parking is available. When using reviews as a reference, consider that there are differing experiences regarding wait times and patient service.

새연정형외과의원 (Saeyeon Orthopedic Clinic)

The address is 전북 전주시 덕진구 안덕원로 142 새봄메디컬센터 3층~6층 (142 Andeokwon-ro, Deokjin-gu, Jeonju, Jeollabuk-do; Saebom Medical Center, 3rd–6th floors), and the phone number is 063-278-7001. The provided review totals are 867 Naver reviews, 200 blog reviews, 56 Kakao reviews, and 0 Google reviews, for a total of 1,123. The Kakao rating is 3.9, the Google rating is 4, and no Naver rating was provided. Among the five, the Kakao and Google ratings are relatively high, but review counts and evaluation criteria differ by platform, so simple comparison has limitations. The number of orthopedic specialists is not in the materials. The hours are Monday–Thursday 08:30–18:30 and Saturday 08:30–13:00; Friday and Sunday hours and lunch hours were not confirmed.

“Dr. Kim Min-woo. Used after reserving, wait time under 10 minutes. It was my first visit, and among all the hospitals I’ve been to, it was the first time I saw a doctor explain so kindly and thoroughly. Maybe that’s why there are so many people. The fact that Naver reservation is available was nice, and the physical therapists are very kind too.” (dee****, September 10, 2026)

“They really treat you with care.” (lor****, September 8, 2026)

The reviews show experiences with post-reservation wait time, explanations, and kindness, but no content about plantar fasciitis care or treatment results was confirmed. Reservation, wireless internet, separate men’s and women’s restrooms, and parking are registered as amenities, and a website and blog are provided. One review mentioned using Naver reservation, but current reservation methods and available times can change, so check directly. Parking conditions and public transit access also cannot be known from the collected materials alone. Whether there is plantar fasciitis specialization, available treatment days, and the scope of examination and treatment are not in the materials, so it is best to call before visiting.

At-a-Glance Comparison

Naver ratings were not provided. The number of orthopedic specialists also could not be confirmed for any of the five clinics, so it was not arbitrarily listed. Total reviews are the sum of Naver, blog, Kakao, and Google review counts.
