TL;DR: Yes. You can just walk into small neighborhood clinics on your own. Korea’s healthcare is well developed. There’s a clinic on basically every block, and you can easily find different specialties (orthopedics, internal medicine, ENT, etc.). Just drop in, get seen, and pick up your meds. No extra steps. University hospitals are different. People usually go there with a referral from a smaller clinic when it’s something they can’t handle.
