About
Located at Sekimoto-shita in Chikusei City, Ibaraki Prefecture, "Nokaoi Orthopedic Surgery" is an orthopedic clinic whose name means "the best" and "wonderful" in Hawaiian. Since opening in 2011, the clinic has contributed to local healthcare under the leadership of Dr. Hizue Ichikawa, a medical doctor with board certification in orthopedic surgery from the Japanese Orthopaedic Association. Specializing in shoulder and knee joints, the clinic provides comprehensive care ranging from general trauma and wound treatment to burn care, demonstrating its high level of expertise through its membership in the Japan Shoulder Society and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association for Sports Medicine. The scope of practice extends beyond general orthopedics to include conditions affecting the entire musculoskeletal system, such as fractures, dislocations, sprains, low back pain, intervertebral disc herniation, frozen shoulder, and rheumatism, in addition to sports medicine services. The well-equipped rehabilitation facility offers high-quality care that combines physical therapy with therapeutic exercise, with a focus on promoting early recovery. English-speaking services are available, and the clinic features barrier-free facilities and parking, with efforts focused on enhancing the patient experience through the introduction of electronic prescriptions, credit card payments, and self-service kiosks.
