Nomura Internal Medicine Clinic
About
Located in Tsurugadai, Kushiro City, Hokkaido, Nomura Internal Medicine Clinic has been dedicated to treating lifestyle diseases, with a focus on diabetes, since opening in 2004. The clinic places special emphasis on preventing and managing serious diabetes-related complications, including eye diseases (blindness), kidney diseases (dialysis), and neuropathy (amputation). Regular blood tests for blood sugar control form the cornerstone of treatment. The clinic provides same-day test result explanations, and certified diabetes educators (CDE) offer careful support ranging from dietary and exercise guidance to insulin initiation. Equipped with CT and endoscopy facilities, the clinic also enables early detection of cerebral infarction, ischemic heart disease, and cancer, which carry higher risks for diabetic patients. The director is a certified Kampo specialist by the Japan Society for Oriental Medicine, and integrating Western medicine with Kampo to provide holistic treatment is a distinctive feature of the clinic. English-speaking services are available, and the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments. It is also equipped with parking and barrier-free facilities, creating an accessible environment for patients from diverse backgrounds.
