Kurata Clinic
About
Kurata Clinic, located in Nagatoishi, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, was founded in 1976 by the predecessor and has provided community-based healthcare for many years. Since August 2016, marking the 40th anniversary, the current director has continued the family practice with the philosophy of 'supporting lifelong health from age 0 to 100,' serving as a family physician for local residents.

Additionally, specialized pediatric services include treatment for nocturnal enuresis, a pediatric allergy clinic, and a pediatric obesity clinic established in June 2024. For adult care, the clinic offers lifestyle disease management and smoking cessation programs, along with various vaccinations, health checkups, and medical certificate preparation. Online consultations are available, and home visits are provided for patients with difficulty visiting the clinic.
