About
Located in Mizukino, Moriya City, Ibaraki Prefecture, Kaizuka Mizukino Clinic is a community-based clinic operated by the medical corporation Kosho-kai. Clinic Director Dr. Hiroshi Kaizuka graduated from Iwate Medical University and has performed over 2,000 surgical procedures, primarily in gastrointestinal and breast cancer surgery, with particular expertise in over 800 breast cancer operations. The clinic's two main pillars are "early detection of cancer" and "prevention and treatment of lifestyle diseases," offering a wide range of specialties including internal medicine, surgery, gastroenterology, and breast surgery. In terms of facilities, the clinic has introduced transnasal endoscopy using FUJIFILM Medical's "LASEREO" system, which utilizes laser light sources for high-precision image processing, making it easier to detect gastric cancer and intestinal metaplasia. The clinic also focuses on early detection of breast cancer through mammography and ultrasound, with the director holding the certified Mammography Reader (Level A) qualification. The scope of medical care is extensive, including 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring and the adoption of moist wound healing therapy. Medical consultations are available in English, and the clinic is equipped with parking and barrier-free facilities. The clinic is closed on Wednesdays, Sundays, and holidays, and as a trusted "family doctor" in the community, the clinic actively provides referrals to reliable specialists for conditions outside its expertise.
