About
Ohira Internal Medicine Clinic, located in Futsukamachi, Aoba Ward, Sendai City, is a community-focused clinic with gastrointestinal medicine, general internal medicine, endoscopic medicine, and diabetes medicine as its core specialties. Dr. Tetsuya Ohira, the director, honed his expertise as a specialist in gastrointestinal diseases, gastrointestinal endoscopy, and general internal medicine at Sendai Open Hospital for approximately 20 years, having performed over 50,000 upper and lower endoscopic examinations (gastroscopy and colonoscopy). The clinic offers transnasal endoscopy and sedation (sleep medication) to minimize patient discomfort. They accept detailed examinations for Sendai City's gastric and colorectal cancer screenings (fecal occult blood test), manage lifestyle diseases including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes, operate a fever clinic for influenza and COVID-19, and provide various vaccinations. English consultations are available, and the clinic has a dedicated parking lot for three vehicles on the north side. Founded by grandfather Masuji Ito as Ito Internal Medicine, the clinic has served community healthcare for three generations, continuing to provide specialized medical care based on the treatment philosophy inherited from previous generations.
