Booking a comprehensive screening in Seoul takes five steps: tell us what you need, get a fixed price and a date, travel and scan in one visit, get a same-day consult on preliminary findings with your full English report emailed two to three weeks later depending on the center, then follow up with your own doctor. Here is what happens at each step, and how long it takes, including why the report timing does not extend your trip.
Typical response time to your first message.
Your quoted price does not move while you decide.
Imaging, endoscopy and bloods on one scheduled day.
Same-day consult on preliminary findings; the full report varies by centre. KMI and Hanshin Medipia publish two to three weeks; Hanaro publishes no figure at all (measured 2026-07-28). It is emailed (or posted, at one centre), not collected in person. This is logistics, not a reason to extend your trip; see below.
Meridiko's own stated operating targets, not an independently audited service-level guarantee.
Message your history, any prior results, and your travel window. A coordinator replies within one business day with which program fits.
Your program, price — quoted in your currency, held for 60 days — and exact test-day schedule are confirmed before you pay anything.
Arrive in Seoul. Every scan, endoscopy and blood draw for your program happens in one scheduled day at one accredited center.
You get a same-day consultation on preliminary findings before you leave the center. The full radiology and pathology report, plus a GP referral summary, follows two to three weeks later depending on the partner center (one center does not publish a turnaround figure at all), written by the reading specialist, not translated afterward. It is emailed to you (or posted, at one center); you are not in Korea waiting for it. That is why your trip length is set by the exam, not the report: a three-day visit and a three-week report are not in tension, because the report arrives after you have already gone home.

Bring the report, the raw DICOM imaging, and the referral summary home. Your own physician decides what happens next.
