Okubo Clinic
About
Located in Shin-machi, Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, Okubo Clinic has provided community-based medical care since its establishment in 1886. The clinic is one of the few in Gunma Prefecture with hepatologists on staff, treating a wide range of liver conditions including hepatitis B and C, alcoholic hepatitis, fatty liver, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and acute hepatitis. In particular, oral treatment with DAAs (Direct-Acting Antivirals) is available for chronic hepatitis C, and the clinic also handles diagnosis and examination of gastrointestinal diseases affecting the stomach and large intestine. Additionally, since liver disease often presents no symptoms, early detection through blood tests is recommended. For fatty liver, which has been increasing in recent years, treatment is also provided through lifestyle improvements such as dietary control. The facility is equipped with English-language services, parking, and barrier-free access to support diverse visitors.
