Yamashita Diabetes Internal Medicine

About

Located in Ichibancho, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture, Yamashita Internal Medicine for Diabetes is a clinic providing specialized care for patients with diabetes. The medical department is internal medicine, with consultation hours from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The facility has parking and is barrier-free accessible. The clinic implements four initiatives to review diabetes drug therapy. During the waiting time after blood tests, cooking instruction using vegetable dishes that can be prepared in about 10 minutes supports improvements in dietary habits. Chewing training increases the number of chews to assist with obesity treatment, while after consultations, core training, tube training, and stretching are conducted. Furthermore, nursing and reception staff provide lifestyle counseling, with a focus on empathy and listening rather than authoritative guidance. Through these initiatives, a treatment approach aims at reducing or discontinuing medication, and English services are available.
