About
Cats Children's Clinic, located in Misawa, Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, is a community-oriented pediatric specialty clinic. Situated approximately 13 minutes on foot from JR Nagaoka Station and easily accessible from the Nakazawa Bypass IC, it offers a convenient location for families living in the surrounding area. The clinic bases its practice on the CATS philosophy, derived from the initials of 'Children, Art, Tenderness, Sincerity,' prioritizing compassionate and attentive care for children backed by medical knowledge and expertise. Services extend beyond general consultations to include vaccinations, infant health checkups, head shape evaluation, chronic disease management, and mental health consultations (by appointment), providing comprehensive support for children's physical and mental development. During infant checkups on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Wednesdays, nutritionists offer dietary consultations addressing concerns about breastfeeding and weaning. The facility features a symbolic multi-purpose dome that serves as a community gathering place, functioning as a playground, children's library, and childcare consultation space. With barrier-free design and English language support available, the clinic welcomes families from diverse backgrounds in a comfortable and accessible environment.
