About
Located on Tachibana-dori in Chuo Ward, Kobe City, this clinic boasts convenient access: approximately a 10-minute walk from JR Kobe Station and about 5 minutes from Kosoku Kobe Station or Subway Okurayama Station. On weekdays, Internal Medicine is available from 9:00 PM to 11:40 PM; on Saturdays, Internal Medicine, Otolaryngology, and Ophthalmology operate from 6:00 PM to 11:40 PM; and on holidays and year-end/new year periods, these three departments are available from 9:00 AM to 4:40 PM. Note that Otolaryngology on holidays has two intake periods: until 11:40 AM and until 4:40 PM. Serving as an emergency medical facility, the clinic supports English, Korean, and other languages, features barrier-free accessibility, and includes a parking lot. An advance check-in system has been introduced to reduce waiting room congestion and waiting times, allowing web registration starting one hour before the clinic opens. Internal Medicine primarily serves patients aged 15 and above, and accepts health insurance, requiring a health insurance card or similar documentation. Prescribed medications are typically limited to one-day supplies, and prescribing medication without a medical examination is legally prohibited.
