Questions & Answers about jinryo jeone ganhosaga che-oneul hwaginhaeyo.

Why is 전에 used after 진료?

전에 means before, and in Korean it comes after the noun it relates to.

So:

• 진료 전 = before the examination/treatment
• 진료 전에 = before the examination/treatment, with 에 helping it function smoothly in the sentence

This is different from English, where before comes first. Korean often uses postpositions instead of prepositions.

A useful pattern is:

• noun + 전에 = before noun

For example:

• 수업 전에 = before class
• 식사 전에 = before the meal

What exactly does 진료 mean here?

진료 usually means medical examination, consultation, or treatment by a doctor or clinic.

In this sentence, it does not just mean a casual check. It refers to the medical visit itself, such as seeing the doctor.

Depending on context, it can feel like:

• before the appointment
• before the consultation
• before the examination/treatment

So 진료 전에 means before the patient is seen for medical care.
