Shigetomi Surgery Clinic
About
Shigeto Surgical Clinic is located in Umemitsumachi, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, and specializes in surgery and gastroenterology. Under the direction of Dr. Kazuharu Shigeto, the clinic provides community-based medical care with a focus on digestive system disorders and surgical procedures. A notable feature of the clinic is its early morning hours — Monday through Friday from 7:00 to 14:00, and Saturdays from 7:10 to 11:00 — making it easy for patients to visit before work or their morning commute. The clinic also offers basic health examinations and cancer screenings for lung, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancers, supporting preventive healthcare for local residents. Home visit services are available, making the clinic a reliable resource for patients who have difficulty traveling to the facility. Ten parking spaces are provided, ensuring convenient access by car from surrounding areas. English-language support is also available. The clinic is closed on Sundays, public holidays, the year-end and New Year period, and the Obon holiday season, so patients are advised to confirm operating days in advance before visiting.
