Tachibana Clinic Shimoyamato
About
Tachibana Clinic Shimoyamato is an internal medicine clinic located in Shimoyamato, Nishi-ku, Fukuoka City, which opened in January 2022. It is operated by Tachibana Jinshinkai Medical Corporation, whose main clinic is based in Omuta and which has a long track record of contributing to community healthcare. The current director, who took office in April 2023, holds multiple specialist qualifications — board-certified specialist in general internal medicine, cardiovascular medicine, and hepatology — and is equipped to provide care for patients across a wide range of ages. The clinic places particular emphasis on cardiac rehabilitation. With the goal of preventing acute exacerbation of chronic heart failure associated with heart and cardiovascular diseases, rehabilitation is provided by physical therapists holding the qualifications of "Cardiac Rehabilitation Instructor" and "Heart Failure Rehabilitation Instructor" certified by the Japanese Circulation Society. Clinic hours are 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM in the morning and 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM in the afternoon, with closures on Sundays, public holidays, and during the year-end/New Year and Obon periods. The facility offers a parking lot and is fully wheelchair accessible, making it easy for elderly patients and those requiring physical assistance to visit. English-language services are also available, allowing non-Japanese speakers to receive care with confidence.
