About
Located in Shintomimachi, Tonami City, Toyama Prefecture, the Tonami Medical District Emergency Center is a clinic adjacent to Tonami General Hospital, dedicated to handling emergency cases. The center's most distinctive feature is its operational system where physicians specializing in internal medicine and pediatrics from within the Tonami medical district take turns providing care on a rotational basis. On Sundays, holidays, and during the year-end and New Year period (December 30 to January 3), the center operates from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and also provides evening services from 8:00 PM to 10:30 PM. Evening hours are also available on weekdays and Saturdays. The medical departments offered are internal medicine and pediatrics for patients aged 15 and under, serving the entire community by providing after-hours care for those who cannot visit during daytime hours. Please note that the center does not treat trauma patients such as those with falls or head injuries, so patients should confirm their symptoms before visiting. After receiving care, it is recommended to follow up with a specialist on the following day or later, as the center is positioned as a facility for emergency medical treatment. English assistance is available, and the facility is equipped with electronic payment options, parking, and barrier-free accessibility, creating an environment accessible to various patients. The parking lot on the east side of Tonami General Hospital is available for use, accommodating access by private vehicle.
