About
Shintani Clinic, operated by Medical Corporation Shintani-kai, is a community-based clinic located in Asahicho, Fuchu City, Tokyo, offering a wide range of medical services from internal medicine to orthopedics and pediatrics. In internal medicine, examinations are conducted by a physician certified by the Japanese Society of Internal Medicine, covering common conditions such as colds and hay fever, as well as lifestyle-related diseases like hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, along with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and dementia. The clinic provides comprehensive support for everyday health concerns, including metabolic syndrome management, smoking cessation treatment (covered by insurance), AGA (male pattern hair loss) treatment, and memory loss consultations (Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, by appointment). In orthopedics, the clinic treats musculoskeletal conditions such as lower back pain, knee pain, herniated discs, and shoulder stiffness, with an on-site physical therapy room for rehabilitative care. The attending physician holds a certification as a Sports Medicine Physician from the Japan Medical Association. In pediatrics, children from infancy can be seen for a wide range of symptoms including fever and abdominal pain, and the clinic also provides vaccinations and infant health checkups. The waiting room is designed with children in mind, featuring lower sofas and a child-friendly environment. The clinic is also well-equipped with diagnostic facilities including X-ray, bone density testing, abdominal and cervical ultrasound, electrocardiography, and arterial stiffness assessment, and offers Fuchu City health screenings and corporate health checkups. For patients who have difficulty visiting the clinic, home medical visits (internal medicine) are available, supporting home healthcare in the community.
