Fujita Gastroenterology Hospital
About
Located in Takatsuki City, Osaka Prefecture, this hospital has been pursuing expertise in gastroenterology for over 50 years since its establishment in 1970. The hospital has a medical system that allows for gastroscopy, blood tests, abdominal CT scans, and other examinations on the day of the first visit, providing rapid and accurate diagnosis for patients with acute symptoms. Since opening, the hospital has performed approximately 500,000 endoscopic examinations, about 10,000 annually, and has detected over 7,000 cases of gastric and colorectal cancer. The hospital has introduced an AI-equipped upper and lower endoscopic examination system, allowing selection of examination methods suited to the patient's condition, such as sedation, high-resolution, and thin-diameter cameras. In addition to managing gastrointestinal functional disorders such as constipation and functional dyspepsia, the hospital also provides treatment for ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease while minimizing steroid use. Through the work of university staff as part-time doctors, the hospital introduces advanced treatments equivalent to those at universities, and practices team-based healthcare involving specialized nurses, nutritionists, pharmacists, radiology and examination technicians, and medical clerks. In addition to parking and barrier-free accessibility, the hospital accepts credit cards and electronic payments, and also provides English signage.
