About
Fukuda Orthopedic Clinic, operated by the medical corporation Kowakai, is a specialized orthopedic clinic located in Otsu Shinsaki-cho, Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture. Weekday hours are 8:30–12:30 in the morning and 14:30–18:30 in the afternoon, with Saturday hours from 8:30 to 13:00. The clinic is closed on Wednesdays, Sundays, and public holidays. One of its distinguishing features is a hyperbaric oxygen chamber — a small-room type that accommodates two people simultaneously, offering approximately 45-minute sessions as a self-pay service, with monthly subscription packages also available. The clinic has also introduced the Konica aeroDR digital X-ray system, enabling rapid image capture and processing that helps reduce patient waiting times. Bone density measurement is performed using the DEXA method, with results available in approximately one minute, and ultrasound equipment is also on hand to support a wide range of diagnostic imaging needs. The rehabilitation facility features a spacious area with high ceilings where musculoskeletal rehabilitation is carried out. The clinic is fully accessible and offers a total of 22 parking spaces, making it convenient for patients traveling by car. English-language support is available, and in winter a wood-burning stove is placed in the waiting room, reflecting the clinic's thoughtful approach to creating a comfortable environment for patients.
