About
Located in ShimoTokieda, Usa City, Oita Prefecture, Munakata Clinic is an internal medicine specialty clinic serving the healthcare needs of the local community. Operating hours are weekdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with closures on Sundays, national holidays, and during the New Year and Obon periods. Since April 2020, the clinic has operated with two full-time physicians: Dr. Sayaka Munakata, specializing in internal medicine, nephrology, and hemodialysis; and Dr. Atsuko Ogata, specializing in internal medicine, respiratory medicine, and allergies. A distinctive feature of the clinic is its hemodialysis service, which has been offered since 1986. The facility currently has 14 dialysis machines—2 individual consoles and 12 multi-patient consoles—supporting both regular dialysis for local residents and temporary dialysis for patients visiting the area for travel or business. The clinic is designed for accessibility, with parking facilities and barrier-free access to accommodate a wide range of patients. It also accepts My Number cards for patient identification, aiming to provide higher quality healthcare. Payment options include credit cards and electronic payments, allowing patients to visit without carrying cash. English-language services are available. Through these initiatives, the clinic contributes to both community-based internal medicine and specialized kidney disease care.
