Saito Clinic
About
Located just outside the ticket gate of Shinkoganei Station on the Seibu Tamagawa Line, Saito Clinic is an internal medicine clinic serving the community in Koganei City, Tokyo. Under the leadership of Director Hirokazu Saito, who specializes in cardiology, along with Vice Director Tomohiro Saito, who specializes in gastroenterology, the clinic is equipped to handle a wide range of internal medicine conditions. One of the clinic's key features is its low-discomfort transnasal endoscopy (stomach camera through the nose). This endoscopic examination, which allows direct visualization of the stomach, esophagus, and duodenum, is offered in a way that reduces both physical and mental burden on patients, with examinations available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Additionally, as a designated home care support clinic, the facility provides home medical care in coordination with visiting nurses and care managers, supporting patients and their families who wish to receive care at home. When hospitalization or detailed examinations are required, collaborative arrangements with multiple medical institutions, including Musashino Red Cross Hospital and Tokyo Metropolitan Tama General Medical Center, are in place. The clinic features parking facilities and barrier-free access, ensuring an accessible environment for elderly patients and those with mobility challenges, while also offering convenient services such as online appointment booking and My Number health insurance card compatibility.
