Fukatsu Clinic
About
Located in Higashihata-cho, Anjo City, Aichi Prefecture, Fukutsu Clinic is a historic internal medicine clinic that celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2025. A key feature of the clinic is its two-doctor system with different specialties. The fourth-generation director, Dr. Asumi Fukutsu, specializes in respiratory medicine and has experience at Anjo Kosei Hospital. Dr. Atsushi Fukutsu is a nephrology specialist certified by the Japanese Society of Nephrology, having conducted kidney research at university hospitals for approximately 30 years. While grounded in general internal medicine, the clinic addresses respiratory conditions such as persistent cough, asthma, COPD, and pneumonia, with chest X-rays and spirometry available. In nephrology, precise diagnosis is performed using urinalysis, blood tests, and ultrasound examinations. For advanced testing such as CT scans, the clinic has established referral systems with Heian City Hospital and Anjo Kosei Hospital. Consultation hours are from 9 AM to 12 PM and 4 PM to 6 PM, with Thursday and Saturday mornings only, and closed on Sundays and holidays. English assistance is available, and the clinic offers parking and barrier-free access. Continuing family healthcare traditions spanning generations, this clinic serves as a community family physician, addressing needs from colds and lifestyle disease consultations to vaccinations and municipal health screenings.
