Hagio ENT Clinic
About
Hagio ENT Clinic, located in Kitano-machi, Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, specializes in otolaryngology (ear, nose, and throat). The clinic is conveniently situated about a 5-minute walk from Kanashima Station on the Nishitetsu Amagi Line and has parking available, making it easily accessible for patients traveling by train or car. Operating hours are from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM (until 12:00 PM on Wednesdays and Saturdays), with Sundays and public holidays as closed days. A distinctive feature of this clinic is its home-based examination service for snoring and sleep apnea syndrome. Examination kits are delivered to patients' homes, and after approximately two weeks, results and future treatment plans are explained during an outpatient visit. For hay fever, the clinic offers consultations on early intervention, including preemptive administration of anti-allergy medications before peak pollen season. The facility supports digital health insurance cards via smartphone, allowing patients to verify their insurance simply by holding their phone over a card reader. The clinic maintains strict hygiene standards, using equipment sterilized with high-pressure steam after cleaning, and meets facility standards for outpatient infection control measures. The clinic is barrier-free, creating an accessible environment for patients of all ages. When hospitalization or advanced testing is required, the clinic coordinates referrals to partner institutions including Kamishiro Hospital, Koga Hospital 21, Kurume University Hospital, and St. Mary's Hospital.
