About
Morita Shunt & Amyloid Treatment Clinic, located in Kanayama, Naka Ward, Nagoya City, is a medical facility specializing in the treatment of dialysis-related amyloidosis. Since its establishment in 2008, the clinic has performed numerous same-day endoscopic surgeries for complications associated with long-term dialysis, such as hand numbness and shoulder pain. The clinic director is a medical doctor who graduated from Chiba University School of Medicine and holds a doctoral degree in medicine. With research experience at the National Cancer Institute in the United States, the director is a certified specialist and instructor of the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy and the Japanese Urological Association. Prior to opening this clinic, the director performed 851 carpal tunnel release surgeries and 275 endoscopic surgeries for shoulder arthropathy at Social Insurance Chukyo Hospital and Nagoya Kyoritsu Hospital. Endoscopic surgeries at this clinic feature small skin incisions of approximately 2 cm and minimal blood loss, allowing patients to resume dialysis treatment the following day with minimal impact on daily life. The clinic operates on a fully appointment-based system, offers English language support, and is designed as a barrier-free facility. For patients traveling from distant areas or using wheelchairs, the clinic makes efforts to minimize the number of required visits.
