Meiwa Akachan Kodomo Clinic
About
Meiwa Baby and Child Clinic is a pediatric clinic located in Meiwa-machi, Ora District, Gunma Prefecture, with English language support available. The clinic offers a fever clinic in the mornings for patients with a fever of 37.5°C or higher or suspected highly infectious diseases such as chickenpox and mumps. After arriving at the parking lot, patients are instructed to call before entering the facility and use a dedicated entrance for isolation. Influenza testing is only available for patients whose fever has persisted for 12 hours or more. In the afternoons, the clinic accepts same-day appointments on a first-come, first-served basis. The clinic provides information on publicly funded periods for routine MR and HPV vaccines, as well as HPV catch-up vaccination deadlines. Breastfeeding consultation slots are available approximately five times per month, with reservations accepted via web or LINE. During vaccination hours, prescriptions are generally not available; afternoon appointments are required for those wishing to receive medication. Running late for an appointment can be accommodated by notifying the clinic via LINE or phone, but appointments are canceled after 30 minutes. The clinic features parking and barrier-free access, and patients must present their My Number insurance card or eligibility verification document at reception.
