Tanaka Kichijoji Hospital
About
Tanaka Kichijoji Hospital, located in Nishikamiminami in Nerima Ward, Tokyo, is a medical institution that plays a vital role in community healthcare. The hospital underwent barrier-free renovations in 2004, ensuring a spacious 6.4㎡ between each bed as part of its commitment to patient environment improvement. While internal medicine is the primary department, information from their official website indicates that they also provide diagnosis and treatment by board-certified neurosurgeons, spinal cord stimulation therapy, orthopedic care for chronic conditions such as lower back and knee pain as well as fractures and sports injuries, and surgical treatments for the spine and spinal cord. In neurosurgery, they conduct diagnoses using the latest CT and MRI equipment, providing specialized care for symptoms including dizziness, unsteadiness, numbness in the hands and feet, weakness, and difficulty speaking. Spinal cord stimulation therapy is a surgical treatment covered by insurance in Japan for relieving chronic intractable pain, and implantation of the stimulation device is performed if effectiveness is confirmed during the trial phase. The hospital offers English services, and credit cards, electronic payments, and parking are available. With barrier-free facilities, an environment is established that can be used with confidence by those who require special consideration for mobility. As a general acute care medical institution, the hospital maintains its functions and aims to provide safer and more reliable medical care by strengthening collaboration with regional tertiary acute care facilities and advanced care hospitals.
