About
Kuroda Clinic, located in Tamana City, Kumamoto Prefecture, is a medical facility specializing in internal medicine and metabolic medicine. A distinctive feature of the clinic is its specialized diagnostic and treatment services in both diabetic metabolism and endocrine metabolism.

Insulin secretion test results are available promptly, enabling medication selection suited to each patient's constitution. For endocrine disorders including thyroid diseases, comprehensive examinations are performed using endocrine stimulation tests, thyroid ultrasound, and fine-needle biopsy. Thyroid hormone test results are available on the same day, allowing for prompt initiation of treatment. The clinic is well-equipped with diagnostic facilities, including chest X-rays, abdominal ultrasound, cardiac ultrasound, electrocardiogram, Holter monitoring, and treadmill testing, placing emphasis on early detection of complications such as heart disease. A referral system to affiliated facilities is in place when specialized treatment is required. The clinic also provides various vaccinations and accepts patients with infectious symptoms. The facility has a parking lot and is wheelchair accessible, with English language support available. Consulting hours are weekdays from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM (until 4:30 PM on Saturdays), closed on Wednesdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
