Umehara Clinic
About
Located in Morishima, Fuji City, Umehara Clinic is a medical facility centered on internal medicine, offering multiple specialties including gastroenterology, general surgery, proctology, and rehabilitation. In addition to general internal medicine treatments for everyday conditions such as colds and gastroenteritis, the clinic diagnoses and treats lifestyle diseases like hypertension and diabetes, as well as respiratory conditions including pneumonia and bronchial asthma. In terms of gastroenterological expertise, a notable feature is that gastroscopy is performed daily, with the choice between transnasal and transoral procedures available. Colonoscopy is by appointment only, and advance explanations are provided as pre-procedural preparation is required. In addition to these endoscopic examinations, the clinic offers gastrointestinal cancer diagnosis using ultrasound equipment, as well as testing and eradication treatment for gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers, and Helicobacter pylori infection. In the surgical department, in addition to general surgery procedures such as wound management and suture closure and excision of skin and subcutaneous tumors, diagnosis and treatment of breast and thyroid diseases are also performed. The rehabilitation room uses low-frequency therapeutic devices and traction equipment to treat chronic pain conditions including lower back pain, stiff shoulders, and knee pain. The clinic is equipped with parking facilities, is barrier-free accessible, and also offers English language support. Through these initiatives, Umehara Clinic provides evidence-based medicine.
