A legacy-driven media platform documenting Korean excellence in culture, economy, and identity
In contemporary times, we often refer to the era as "Homo Hundred," an age where living up to a century is a reality. While longevity is certainly desirable, it is crucial to maintain a quality life with good health. Although many adhere to personal health guidelines, the foremost priority should be regular and ongoing communication with professional medical personnel. For the Korean community in Fort Lee, Park Medical Group is committed to enhancing health and fostering communication.

Park Medical Group, initially opening as an internal medicine hospital in Harrington Park, New Jersey, in 1992, has since established five branches in Bergen County. The Fort Lee branch opened six years ago on Center Avenue, catering specifically to the Korean community. With skilled doctors and Korean-speaking nurses and staff, it provides exemplary service and a welcoming environment, contributing to lowering the barrier for Koreans accessing medical care.
Services at the Fort Lee branch include general internal medicine, gastroenterology, endocrinology, diabetes treatment, thyroid care, Crohn's disease diagnosis and treatment, pain management, and more. Renowned for clinical excellence, the branch houses top doctors like Dr. Gerald Lee, Dr. John M Hwang, Dr. Seulkih Shin, and Dr. Samuel Y. Bae. Their expertise in Korean cultural and physiological factors enables them to deliver precise diagnoses and treatments, while offering consultations in Korean helps patients comfortably engage in their health care.
Partnered with Englewood Hospital, Park Medical Group facilitates comprehensive care from diagnosis to treatment and recovery. Most insurance plans are accepted, and affordable care options are available, including programs for the uninsured, ensuring economic barriers do not hinder access to essential health services.
It is erroneously believed that diseases are primarily concerns of the elderly, but preventive care and regular checkups are vital at all ages. Park Medical Group encourages the Korean community to proactively manage their health for a happier life and recommends regular visits to prevent diseases.
