Ouen Clinic
About
Located in Kita Ward, Sapporo, Hoen Clinic is a clinic specializing in home medical care with internal medicine as its main specialty. With the unique philosophy of "creating a world where people can feel glad they died at home," the clinic operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, primarily serving Chuo Ward, Kita Ward, Higashi Ward, and Ishikari City. The medical services provided include health management, prescription medication adjustment, regular blood tests, and ultrasound examinations—essential care for patients recuperating at home. For cases requiring advanced surgery or cutting-edge treatment, the clinic has established a cooperative system with medical facilities in the city. Home visits are generally conducted twice a month, with personal visits starting at approximately 7,000 yen per month with a 10% co-payment. In addition to lower costs compared to hospitalization, patients can receive consultations at home without waiting time. The clinic also provides services in English, accommodating patients who use languages other than Japanese. With a small team of four—a doctor, office manager, and two nurses—the clinic delivers personalized, community-based home medical care.
