Katakura Hospital

About

Located in Takatsu-ku, Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture, Katakura Hospital has been a trusted medical facility for over 70 years since its establishment. The hospital primarily provides general internal medicine services. Specialists conduct examinations and diagnoses in diabetes, endocrinology, cardiology, gastroenterology, neurology, and nephrology, and can arrange referrals to affiliated university hospitals when necessary. Under a system that recommends regular health checkups for lifestyle-related diseases, health management is supported using annual examination data. For cancer screening, the hospital conducts screenings throughout the year and implements lung, colorectal, gastric, and osteoporosis screenings for city residents aged 40 and above. Every Saturday, gastroenterologists from Teikyo University Mizonokuchi Hospital perform gastroscopy, colonoscopy, and ultrasound examinations. Additionally, the hospital has opened a "memory loss and dementia clinic" where neurologists provide diagnosis, treatment, and prevention services. The hospital also provides COVID-19 and shingles vaccinations, COVID and influenza testing, and allergy treatment for hay fever. The hospital offers convenient services including English language support, credit card payments, electronic payments, parking facilities, and barrier-free accessibility.
