About
Himawari Clinic Kyogoku is a long-established internal medicine clinic located in Kyogoku Town, spread across the foothills of Mount Yotei in Hokkaido. Originally founded in 1937 as the Kyogoku Village Medical Clinic, it has served as a core healthcare institution for the local community for over 70 years. In April 2012, the clinic relaunched under a new organizational structure, embracing the philosophy of "medicine that walks alongside daily life," working in collaboration with caregiving, public health, social welfare, and education services. Outpatient hours are from 9:00 to 11:30 AM and 2:00 to 4:30 PM (Thursday afternoon outpatient services are closed), and the clinic is closed on weekends, national holidays, year-end/New Year, and Obon periods. The ability to accommodate English-speaking patients is one of the clinic's distinguishing features, providing an environment where those who prefer to communicate in English can do so comfortably. The facility also offers on-site parking and incorporates barrier-free design, making it accessible for elderly patients and those with physical concerns. Backed by decades of experience and the trust it has earned in community healthcare, Himawari Clinic Kyogoku continues its commitment to serving as a medical hub in Kyogoku Town and supporting the health of local residents.
