About

Tsukuba Gastrointestinal Hospital, located in Takamihara, Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture, has been contributing to community healthcare as a specialist in gastrointestinal diseases since its establishment in 1987, with a history spanning over 35 years. The hospital focuses on gastrointestinal cancer treatment, performing approximately 700 surgeries annually, and emphasizes early detection through regular endoscopic screenings. They offer endoscopic examinations using intravenous anesthesia to minimize discomfort, implementing measures to reduce physical burden during examinations. Short-stay surgical procedures for inguinal hernia and hemorrhoids are also available, and with examinations and surgeries available on weekends, the hospital provides an accessible healthcare system for patients who find weekday visits challenging. In May 2025, a new wing opened for outpatient care, endoscopic examinations, and treatments, enabling healthcare services in a space with the warmth of wood. The existing building features 60 inpatient beds, providing surgery, examinations, and an integrated health screening center. The hospital offers English-language support, accepts credit cards and electronic payments, and is equipped with barrier-free facilities and 120 free parking spaces.
