About
Located in Shindencho, Kochi City, Kochi Prefecture, this clinic provides specialized medical services focusing on general internal medicine and neurology, with a commitment to specialized diagnosis and treatment of the brain and nervous system. The clinic director has accumulated extensive expertise and experience in neurology over many years, specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders such as acute stroke, dementia, and Parkinson's disease. The clinical department is internal medicine, providing comprehensive general internal medicine services. First-time visits for neurology require appointments, and during periods of infectious disease outbreaks, first-time visits may be restricted, so advance booking by phone is necessary. Clinic hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM, with closures on Sundays, holidays, and year-end/new year period (December 30 to January 3). The clinic features a parking lot and barrier-free accessibility, ensuring easy access for all patients. English-language services are available. The clinic also handles infectious diseases (COVID-19, influenza, etc.) using genetic testing and antigen testing (qualitative) with results available in approximately 10 minutes. Genetic testing is highly accurate and can detect infections even in asymptomatic cases or within 24 hours of symptom onset. The clinic carefully examines each patient's symptoms to properly diagnose urgent and severe conditions, providing thorough and attentive care. When sufficient treatment within the clinic is not possible, the clinic has a system in place to refer patients to appropriate medical facilities.
