About
Chie Naika Clinic is a community-based clinic located in Kaita-cho, Aki-gun, Hiroshima Prefecture, offering internal medicine, gastroenterology, and endoscopic medicine. In addition to general internal medicine, the clinic provides a range of specialized outpatient services including H. pylori eradication therapy, smoking cessation, lifestyle disease management, and migraine treatment, addressing a wide variety of health concerns. For gastrointestinal examinations, the clinic has introduced new endoscopic equipment and performs procedures such as gastroscopy and colonoscopy. Patients can complete a web-based medical questionnaire before their visit, allowing them to communicate symptoms and concerns in advance and reducing the burden of waiting in the reception area. For patients presenting with fever or cold-like symptoms, a dedicated fever clinic has been established, with separate consultation rooms and infection prevention measures in place. The clinic offers 18 parking spaces for easy car access, and its barrier-free facilities ensure a comfortable environment for patients with physical disabilities. English-language support and electronic payment are also available. Consultation hours are 9:00–13:00 in the morning and 15:00–18:00 in the afternoon, with Saturday mornings only. The clinic also provides vaccinations including influenza, COVID-19, and HPV vaccines, serving as a broad primary care provider for the local community.
