About
Obara Internal Medicine & Gastroenterology Clinic, located in Nakamachi, Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture, is a gastroenterology specialty clinic established in October 2007 by a local director. After graduating from Iwate Medical University, the director gained extensive experience in gastroenterology at Iwate Medical University Hospital, Hachinohe Red Cross Hospital, and Sendai Red Cross Hospital, specializing in endoscopic diagnosis, treatment, and liver diseases. The clinic's key feature is its high level of expertise, with the director holding multiple certifications including Certified Gastroenterologist and Endoscopy Specialist/Instructor by the Japanese Society of Gastroenterology, and Board Certified Hepatologist by the Japan Society of Hepatology. Services range from general internal medicine conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia to digestive disorders including gastritis, colon polyps, chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and pancreatitis. For endoscopic examinations, in addition to standard oral endoscopes (approximately 9mm in diameter), the clinic offers transnasal endoscopes (approximately 5mm in diameter) with less burden, and sedation can be used to minimize discomfort. With English consultation available, parking facilities, and barrier-free equipment, the clinic provides an accessible environment for diverse patients. It is a clinic combining expertise and convenience as a community primary care provider.
