About
Hoshino ENT Clinic, located in Nakao, Midori Ward, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture, is a specialized otolaryngology clinic that opened in September 2022. Dr. Ryu Hoshino, the clinic director, gained extensive experience in examinations, surgeries, and emergency care as an ENT specialist at multiple hospitals including Gunma University Hospital, and has been practicing community medicine in Saitama City since 2019. He holds the Specialist certification from the Japan Otorhinolaryngological Society and provides care for patients of all ages, from children to seniors. A notable feature of the clinic is the adoption of 'DROP SCREENER,' which can test for 41 types of allergens using a small blood sample from the fingertip, allowing for low-burden identification of causative substances such as cedar pollen and food allergies. The clinic also offers sublingual immunotherapy and provides specialized treatment for allergic diseases. Additionally, the clinic treats sleep apnea syndrome. For cases requiring more advanced treatment, the clinic has established a referral system in collaboration with multiple medical institutions, including Saitama City Hospital and Jichi Medical University Saitama Medical Center. The clinic has implemented a web reservation system to reduce waiting times and offers comprehensive facilities including English language support, parking, and barrier-free access.
