About
Asukagawa Clinic, located in Shinkuchō, Kashihara City, Nara Prefecture, is a community-based medical facility specializing in Internal Medicine, Surgery, Rehabilitation, and Gynecology. The director, Dr. Ryo Mizumoto, holds certification from the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine and leverages extensive experience from emergency medical centers and general practice training to provide comprehensive primary care in internal medicine, orthopedics, and surgery. The clinical judgment skills developed in emergency settings make this clinic a reliable resource for everything from routine health concerns to sudden symptoms. Gynecological services, including prescriptions, are continued from the previous practitioner, allowing the facility to address multiple medical needs in one location. Clinic hours are 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM, with full-day service on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and morning-only service on Saturday. On the 2nd and 4th Wednesday mornings, female physician Dr. Nozomi Yama'iri sees patients, creating a welcoming environment for female patients. If a condition is beyond the clinic's scope, a collaborative network with nearby major hospitals ensures appropriate referrals. English assistance is available, parking is provided, and a reservation-based free shuttle service operates for Kashihara City residents for morning appointments, demonstrating the clinic's commitment to patient convenience.
