About
Maeda Clinic, operated by the medical corporation Kenaikay, is located in Shimabara City, Nagasaki Prefecture, and has been supporting local healthcare for more than half a century since its establishment in 1970. The clinic offers nephrology and urology as its primary specialties, along with dermatology and cosmetic dermatology, and is conveniently situated just a 3-minute walk from Shimabara Station on the Shimabara Railway. A defining feature of the clinic is its early adoption of hemodialysis treatment beginning in 1975, with a particular emphasis on promoting "long-duration dialysis" (18 hours or more per week). This treatment approach, which aims to remove greater amounts of uremic toxins through sufficient dialysis volume—thereby easing dietary restrictions, stabilizing blood pressure, and reducing the number of oral medications—has been highly regarded for its contribution to improving the quality of life of dialysis patients. Since relocating to its current site in 1994, the facility has undergone repeated expansions and renovations to create a warm and welcoming environment. English-language support is available, and the clinic is equipped with ample parking and barrier-free facilities, ensuring a comfortable and accessible experience for patients from a wide range of backgrounds.
