About
Kotani Clinic, located in Fukae Minamimachi, Higashinada Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, is a community-based clinic specializing in internal medicine and respiratory medicine. Guided by the principles of "compassion" and "sincerity," the clinic provides attentive, patient-centered care and has long served as a trusted family doctor supporting the health of local residents. The clinic handles a wide range of conditions, from common internal medicine ailments such as colds and gastrointestinal disorders to lifestyle-related diseases including diabetes and hypertension, and also addresses sleep-related conditions including sleep apnea syndrome. The clinic offers a variety of vaccinations, including influenza, COVID-19, shingles (Shingrix), and pneumococcal vaccines, and also provides Kobe City-designated specific health checkups, various cancer screenings, and seafarer medical examinations. Reflecting the limited availability of dispensing pharmacies south of National Route 43, the clinic dispenses medications directly on-site whenever possible. Home visit services are also available, ensuring considerate care for patients who have difficulty coming to the clinic. English-language support is available, and the facility features a parking lot and barrier-free design to ensure accessibility for a wide range of visitors. Consultations are held in two sessions: morning (9:00–12:00) and afternoon (16:30–19:00), with the clinic closed on Thursdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
