Ichiyanagi Internal Medicine & Gastroenterology Clinic
About
Located at Higashi 4-jo Minami 6-chome in Obihiro City, Hokkaido, Ichiyanagi Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology is a community-based clinic specializing in internal medicine and gastroenterology. Since opening in November 2006, it has continued to provide medical care rooted in the Obihiro region. The director is a specialist who graduated from Asahikawa Medical University and accumulated extensive clinical experience at Obihiro Kosei General Hospital and other facilities. The clinic focuses on gastroenterological diagnosis and examinations, with one of its distinctive features being the introduction of ultra-thin transnasal endoscopy with a diameter of 5.9mm. Endoscopic examination through the nasal passage causes minimal gag reflex and significantly reduces the physical burden on patients. The clinic also offers abdominal ultrasound examinations, establishing an examination system for early detection and diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases. The facility features barrier-free design and includes parking, creating a welcoming environment where elderly individuals and those with physical concerns can visit with confidence. In addition to being able to communicate in English, the clinic supports online qualification verification allowing My Number cards to be used as health insurance cards, providing a highly convenient medical environment.
