About
Located in Wakaeinishincho, Higashiosaka City, Osaka Prefecture, this ENT clinic is operated by the medical corporation Rihokai. The director previously specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as otitis media, tonsillitis, dizziness, sinusitis, and allergic rhinitis, as well as related surgeries, at university hospitals and other facilities, and opened this clinic in Higashiosaka in 2013. The clinic places particular emphasis on dizziness disorders, with approximately 60% being ear-originated dizziness. For the most common condition, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), the clinic provides effective treatment through infrared CCD camera nystagmus examination and physical therapy to reposition otoliths, with some patients experiencing improvement after a single treatment. The clinic also diagnoses and treats ear-originated conditions such as Ménière's disease, characterized by recurrent vertigo, hearing loss, and tinnitus; vestibular neuritis, causing sudden intense vertigo; and sudden sensorineural hearing loss, which involves sudden hearing loss accompanied by vertigo. In terms of facilities, the clinic is equipped with nebulizers, audiometry equipment, X-ray machines, and digital X-ray systems. Consultations are available for cold symptoms, rhinitis, sinusitis, hearing loss, hearing aids, snoring, hoarseness, and other concerns. Parents are also welcome to consult about symptoms in children who may have difficulty expressing themselves. The clinic offers English language support, has parking, and features barrier-free access.
